(1) | INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and changes in stockholders’ equity of Tidewater Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively referred to as the “company”, “Tidewater”, “we”, “our”, or “us”.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial information reflects all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly state our results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented and are not indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

Our quarterly results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and financial position as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 as reported in this Quarterly Report on Form 10Q includes the results of an acquisition consummated in the third quarter of 2023. On July 5, 2023, we finalized an Agreement for the Sale and Purchase of Vessels, Charter Parties and Other Assets, (Acquisition Agreement), with certain subsidiaries of Solstad Offshore ASA, a Norwegian public limited company (collectively, the Sellers), pursuant to which we acquired from the Sellers (Solstad Acquisition): (i) 37 platform supply vessels owned by the Sellers (Solstad Vessels); and (ii) the charter parties governing certain of the Solstad Vessels for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $594.2 million. The purchase price was funded through a combination of cash on hand and net proceeds from both the Senior Secured Term Loan and the 10.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due July 2028. See “Note (8) Debt” for additional disclosure on these debt instruments. The results of operations associated with the Solstad Vessels are included in our results of operations from the date of the Acquisition Agreement.

We determined that, under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) 805, substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in similar identifiable assets and accordingly, the Solstad Acquisition is considered an asset acquisition. The cost of the asset acquisition was primarily allocated to Net Properties and Equipment in our consolidated balance sheet on the date of the Acquisition Agreement, with the remaining cost allocated, on that date, to various other individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values.

Our financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis. Under this basis of presentation, our financial statements consolidate all subsidiaries (entities in which we have a controlling financial interest), and all intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. We use the equity method to account for equity investments over which we exercise significant influence but do not exercise control and are not the primary beneficiary.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Unless otherwise specified, all per share information included in this document is on a diluted basis.

(2) | RECENTLY ISSUED OR ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting, which requires disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis including significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the effect of the standard on our disclosures in our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes, which requires a greater disaggregation of information in the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid by jurisdiction to improve the transparency of the income tax disclosures. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the effect of the standard on our disclosures in our consolidated financial statements.

(3) | ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

Expected credit losses are recognized on the initial recognition of our trade accounts receivable and contract assets. In each subsequent reporting period, even if a loss has not yet been incurred, credit losses are recognized based on the history of credit losses and current conditions, as well as reasonable and supportable forecasts affecting collectability. We utilize a model to estimate the expected credit losses applicable to our trade accounts receivable and contract assets. This model considers our historical performance and the economic environment, as well as the credit risk and its expected development for each segmented group of customers that share similar risk characteristics. It is our practice to write off receivables when all legal options for collection have been exhausted.

Activity in the allowance for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 is as follows:

|  | Trade |
(In Thousands) |  | and Other |
|  | Receivables |
Balance at January 1, 2024 |  | $ | 15,914 |
Current period credit for expected credit losses |  |  | (1,528 | )
Write offs (A) |  |  | (10,968 | )
Other |  |  | (332 | )
Balance at September 30, 2024 |  | $ | 3,086 |

| (A) | Primarily the write off of the remaining balance due from our Nigerian joint venture.

(5) | STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND DILUTIVE EQUITY INSTRUMENTS

Earnings per share

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we reported net income from operations. Our diluted earnings per share for these periods is based on our weighted average common shares outstanding and is computed using the treasury stock method for our outstanding “in-the-money” warrants, restricted stock units and stock options.

Dilutive Equity Instruments

The following table presents the changes in the number of common shares, incremental “in-the-money” warrants, restricted stock units and stock options outstanding:

Total shares outstanding including warrants, restricted stock units and stock options |  | September 30, 2024 |  |  | September 30, 2023 |
Common shares outstanding |  |  | 52,322,461 |  |  |  | 52,839,862 |

Total |  |  | 53,171,525 |  |  |  | 54,522,460 |

At September 30, 2024, we also had 782,993 “out-of-the-money” warrants outstanding and exercisable for 861,292 shares (based on a 1 warrant to a 1.1 share ratio) with an exercise price of $100.00, which expire November 14, 2024. Prior to August 1, 2023, we had outstanding Series A Warrants, exercise price of $57.06 and Series B Warrants, exercise price of $62.28, both of which expired on July 31, 2023. During July 2023, an aggregate of 2.0 million Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants were exercised, and 1.9 million shares of common stock were issued in exchange for $111.5 million in cash proceeds. The remaining 3.1 million unexercised Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants expired according to their terms on July 31, 2023. No warrants, restricted stock units or stock options, whether in the money or out of the money, are included in our earnings per share calculations if the effect of such inclusion is antidilutive.

Common Stock Repurchases

In November 2023, we announced the approval by our Board of Directors (Board) to repurchase up to $35.0 million of our common stock. As of December 31, 2023, we had repurchased and retired 590,499 shares for approximately $35.0 million ($59.29 per share), excluding commissions and a 1% excise tax. On February 29, 2024, we announced our Board’s approval of a new $48.6 million share repurchase program. Further, on May 2, 2024, we announced the approval of an additional $18.1 million under this program, and on August 6, 2024, we announced the approval of an additional $13.9 million, for a total share repurchase capacity of $80.6 million. Under this new program, we repurchased and retired 520,082 shares for approximately $46.6 million ($89.65 per share), excluding commissions and a 1% excise tax, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

(6) | INCOME TAXES

Income tax rates and taxation systems in the jurisdictions where we and our subsidiaries conduct business vary and our subsidiaries are frequently subjected to minimum taxation regimes. In some jurisdictions, tax liabilities are based on gross revenues, statutory deemed profits or other factors, rather than on net income. We use a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate taxes for interim periods instead of applying the annual effective tax rate to an estimate of the full fiscal year due to the level of volatility and unpredictability of earnings in our industry, both overall and by jurisdiction.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, income tax expense reflects tax liabilities in various jurisdictions based on either revenue (deemed profit regimes) or pre-tax profits.

The tax liabilities for uncertain tax positions are primarily attributable to permanent establishment issues related to foreign jurisdictions, subpart F income inclusions and withholding taxes on foreign services. Penalties and interest related to income tax liabilities are included in income tax expense. Income tax payable is included in other current liabilities.

As of December 31, 2023, our balance sheet reflected approximately $589.5 million of net deferred tax assets prior to a valuation allowance of $591.7 million. As of September 30, 2024, we had net deferred tax assets of approximately $569.0 million prior to a valuation allowance of $571.3 million. The net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2024 include $62.4 million of deferred tax assets from the 2022 Swire Pacific Offshore acquisition offset by a valuation allowance of $62.4 million.

Management assesses all available positive and negative evidence to permit use of existing deferred tax assets.

With limited exceptions, we are no longer subject to tax audits by U.S. federal, state, local or foreign taxing authorities for years prior to March 2017. We are subject to ongoing examinations by various foreign tax authorities and do not believe that the results of these examinations will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(7) | EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

U.S. Defined Benefit Pension Plan

We sponsor a defined benefit pension plan (pension plan) that was frozen in 2010 covering certain U.S. employees. We have not made contributions to the pension plan since 2019. Actuarial valuations are performed annually, and we expect to contribute $0.2 million to the pension plan in the fourth quarter of 2024.

During the second quarter of 2023, we, as sponsor of the pension plan, entered into an agreement committing the pension plan to use a portion of its assets to purchase an annuity from an insurance company (Insurer) to transfer approximately $11.8 million of the pension plan’s pension liabilities. Under the terms of this agreement, we irrevocably transferred to the Insurer all future pension plan benefit obligations for approximately 500 Tidewater participants (Transferred Participants) effective in April 2023. This annuity transaction was funded entirely with existing pension plan assets. The Insurer assumed responsibility for administrative and customer service support, including distribution of payments to the Transferred Participants. We recognized a $1.8 million settlement gain in the second quarter of 2023 in connection with this transaction.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

We support a non-contributory and non-qualified defined benefit supplemental executive retirement plan (supplemental plan) that was closed to new participants during 2010. We contributed $1.1 million and $1.2 million to the supplemental plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and expect to contribute $0.3 million during the remainder of 2024. Our obligations under the supplemental plan were $17.0 million and $17.3 million at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and are included in “accrued expenses” and “other liabilities” in the consolidated condensed balance sheet.

Net Periodic Benefit Costs

The net periodic benefit cost for our defined benefit pension plans and supplemental plan (collectively Pension Benefits) is comprised of the following components:

Senior Secured Term Loan

On June 30, 2023, Tidewater entered into a Credit Agreement, by and among Tidewater, as parent guarantor, TDW International Vessels (Unrestricted), LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company (TDW International), as borrower, certain other unrestricted subsidiaries of Tidewater, as other security parties, the lenders party thereto, DNB Bank ASA, New York Branch (DNB Bank), as facility agent and DNB Markets, Inc. (DNB Markets), as bookrunner and mandated lead arranger (Credit Agreement), which was fully drawn on July 5, 2023, in a single advance of $325.0 million, which were used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the Solstad Acquisition.

The Senior Secured Term Loan is composed of a Tranche A loan and a Tranche B loan, each maturing on July 5, 2026. The first payment of $50.0 million under the Tranche A loan was paid in July 2024, with the remaining $50.0 million due at maturity. The Tranche B loan amortizes over the three-year term of the Senior Secured Term Loan, with quarterly payments ranging from $12.5 million to $25.0 million and a final payment of $50.0 million due at maturity. The Tranche A loan bears interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 5% initially, increasing to 8% over the term of the Term Loan. The Tranche B loan bears interest at SOFR plus 3.75%. The Tranche A loan and the Tranche B loan may be prepaid pro rata at any time without premium or penalty. The security for the Senior Secured Term Loan includes mortgages over the Solstad Vessels and associated assignments of insurances and assignments of earnings in respect of such vessels, a pledge of 100% of the equity interests in TDW International, a pledge of 66% of the equity interests in TDW International Unrestricted, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the company, and negative pledges over certain vessels indirectly owned by TDW International Unrestricted, Inc. The obligations of the borrower are guaranteed by Tidewater, subject to a cap equal to 50% of the purchase price for the Solstad Acquisition.

The Credit Agreement contains three financial covenants: (i) a minimum liquidity test equal to the greater of $20.0 million or 10% of net interest-bearing debt; (ii) a minimum equity ratio of 30%, in each case for us and our consolidated subsidiaries; and (iii) an interest coverage ratio of not less than 2:1. The Credit Agreement contains certain equity cure rights with respect to such financial covenants. The Credit Agreement also includes (i) customary vessel management and insurance covenants in the vessel mortgages, (ii) negative covenants, and (iii) certain customary events of default. We are currently in compliance with these financial covenants.

10.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due July 2028

On July 3, 2023, Tidewater completed an offering of $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured bonds in the Nordic bond market (Senior Unsecured Notes). The bonds were privately placed outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We used the net proceeds from the offering to fund a portion of the purchase price of the Solstad Acquisition.

The Senior Unsecured Notes were issued pursuant to the Bond Terms, dated as of June 30, 2023 (Bond Terms), between the Nordic Trustee AS, as Bond Trustee and us. The Senior Unsecured Notes are listed on the Nordic ABM and are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries.

The Senior Unsecured Notes mature on July 3, 2028 and accrue interest at a rate of 10.375% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears on January 3 and July 3 of each year in cash, beginning January 3, 2024. Prepayment of the Senior Unsecured Notes prior to July 3, 2025 requires the payment of make-whole amounts, and prepayments after that date are subject to prepayment premiums that decline over time.

The Senior Unsecured Notes contain two financial covenants: (i) a minimum liquidity test equal to the greater of $20.0 million or 10% of net interest-bearing debt, and (ii) a minimum equity ratio of 30%. The Bond Terms contain certain equity cure rights with respect to such financial covenants. Our ability to make distributions to our stockholders after November 16, 2023, is subject to certain limits, including in some circumstances a minimum liquidity test and a maximum net leverage ratio. The Senior Unsecured Notes are subject to negative covenants as set forth in the Bond Terms. The Bond Terms contain certain customary events of default, including, among other things: (i) default in the payment of any amount when due; (ii) default in the performance or breach of any other covenant in the Bond Terms, which default continues uncured for a period of 20 business days; and (iii) certain voluntary or involuntary events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization. We are currently in compliance with these financial covenants.

8.5% Senior Secured Notes due November 2026

The 8.5% Senior Secured Notes due November 2026 (2026 Notes) totaling $175.0 million in aggregate principal amount, were issued pursuant to the Note Terms, dated as of November 15, 2021 (Note Terms), among us and Nordic Trustee AS, as Trustee and Security Agent. Repayment of the 2026 Notes is guaranteed by our wholly-owned US subsidiaries named as guarantors therein (Guarantors).

The 2026 Notes are secured by (i) a mortgage over each vessel owned by a Guarantor, the equipment that is a part of such vessel, and related rights to insurance on all of the foregoing; (ii) our intercompany claims of a Guarantor against a Restricted Group Company (defined as Tidewater, Tidewater Marine International, Inc. (TMII) and the Guarantors); (iii) bank accounts that contain vessel collateral proceeds or the periodic deposits to the debt service reserve account; (iv) collateral assignments of the rights of each Guarantor under certain long term charter contracts now existing or hereafter arising; and (v) all of the equity interests of the Guarantors and 66% of the equity interests of TMII.

The 2026 Notes mature on November 16, 2026 and accrue interest at a rate of 8.5% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears in May and November of each year. Prepayment of the 2026 Notes prior to May 16, 2024 requires the payment of make-whole amounts, and prepayments after that date are subject to prepayment premiums that decline over time.

The 2026 Notes contain two financial covenants: (i) a minimum liquidity test (of Guarantor liquidity) equal to the greater of $20.0 million or 10% of net interest-bearing debt; and (ii) a minimum equity ratio of 30%, in each case for us and our consolidated subsidiaries. The Note Terms also contain certain equity cure rights with respect to such financial covenants. We are currently in compliance with these covenants. Our ability to make certain distributions to our stockholders are subject to certain limits based on a percentage of net income and other tests, including in some circumstances a minimum liquidity test and a maximum net leverage ratio. The 2026 Notes are also subject to (i) customary vessel management and insurance covenants in the vessel mortgages; and (ii) negative covenants as set forth in the Note Terms and in the Guarantee Agreement between us, Nordic Trustee AS as Security Agent and the Guarantors. The Note Terms also contains certain customary events of default.

Supplier Facility Agreements

We signed agreements for the construction of ten new vessels. Upon delivery of each vessel, we may enter into Facility Agreements to finance a portion of the construction and delivery costs. Four vessels have been delivered through September 30, 2024, and we entered into Facility Agreements for approximately EUR13.9 million ($15.2 million) in financing. Each of the four Facility Agreements bear interest at rates ranging from 2.7% to 6.3% and are payable in ten equal principal semi-annual installments, with the first installments commencing approximately six months following delivery of the respective vessels. Payments for three of the delivered vessels began in the fourth quarter of 2023 while the fourth vessel payment commenced in the second quarter of 2024. The Facility Agreements are secured by the vessels, guaranteed by Tidewater as parent guarantor and contain no financial covenants.

Credit Facility Agreement

We have entered into a Credit Facility Agreement providing for a Super Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility maturing on November 16, 2026 that provides access to $25.0 million for general working capital purposes. The Credit Facility Agreement takes precedence over all other debt, if and when drawn. All amounts owed under the Credit Facility Agreement are secured by the same collateral that secures the 2026 Notes, and such collateral is to be shared in accordance with the priorities established in the Intercreditor Agreement among the Facility Agent, the company, certain subsidiaries thereof, Nordic Trustee AS and certain other parties. No amounts have been drawn on this credit facility.

(9) | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Currency Devaluation and Fluctuation Risk

Due to our international operations, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations against the U.S. dollar. For some of our international contracts, a portion of the revenue and local expenses are incurred in local currencies with the result that we are at risk for changes in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies. We generally do not hedge against any foreign currency rate fluctuations associated with foreign currency contracts that arise in the normal course of business, which exposes us to the risk of exchange rate losses. To minimize the financial impact of these items, we attempt to contract a significant majority of our services in U.S. dollars. In addition, we attempt to minimize the financial impact of these risks by matching the currency of our operating costs with the currency of our revenue streams when considered appropriate. We continually monitor the currency exchange risks associated with all contracts not denominated in U.S. dollars.

Legal Proceedings

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

(10) | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Other Financial Instruments

Our primary financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables and trade payables with book values that are considered to be representative of their respective fair values. The carrying value for cash equivalents is considered to be representative of its fair value due to the short duration and conservative nature of the cash equivalent investment portfolio. In the second quarter of 2022, we agreed with PEMEX, the Mexican national oil company, to exchange $8.6 million in accounts receivable for an equal face amount of seven-year 8.75% PEMEX corporate bonds (PEMEX Note). In 2024, $2.2 million of the PEMEX Note were sold for approximately $2.2 million. The PEMEX Notes are classified as “available for sale.” For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded $0.1 and $0.3 million, respectively, in mark-to-market gains in other comprehensive income, valuing the PEMEX Notes at $6.4 million in our consolidated balance sheet, which is both its amortized cost and approximate fair value, as of September 30, 2024. The PEMEX Notes mark-to-market valuations are considered to be Level 2.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND CURRENT BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Tidewater

We are one of the most experienced international operators in the offshore energy industry with a history spanning over 65 years. Our vessels and associated services support all phases of offshore crude oil and natural gas (also referred to as oil and gas) exploration activities, field development, production and maintenance, as well as windfarm development and maintenance. Our services include towing of, and anchor handling for, mobile offshore drilling units; transporting supplies and personnel necessary to sustain drilling, workover, production activities, field abandonment, dismantlement and restoration activities; offshore construction and seismic and subsea support; geotechnical survey support for windfarm construction, and a variety of other specialized services such as pipe and cable laying. In addition, we have one of the broadest geographic operating footprints in the offshore vessel industry. Our global operating footprint allows us to react quickly to changing local market conditions and to be responsive to the changing requirements of the many customers with which we believe we have strong relationships.

On March 7, 2023, we entered into an Agreement for the Sale and Purchase of Vessels, Charter Parties and Other Assets, which was amended on June 30, 2023 (Acquisition Agreement), with certain subsidiaries of Solstad Offshore ASA, a Norwegian public limited company (collectively, Sellers), pursuant to which we agreed to acquire from the Sellers (Solstad Acquisition): (i) 37 platform supply vessels owned by the Sellers (Solstad Vessels); and (ii) the charter parties governing certain of the Solstad Vessels. On July 5, 2023, we completed the Solstad Acquisition for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $594.2 million, consisting of the $577.0 million base purchase price plus an initial $3.0 million purchase price adjustment; $3.2 million for working capital items comprised of fuel and lubricants; and $11.0 million in estimated transaction costs, consisting primarily of advisory and legal fees. The purchase price was funded through a combination of cash on hand and net proceeds from both the Senior Secured Term Loan and the 10.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due July 2028.

Prior to August 1, 2023, we had outstanding Series A Warrants, exercise price of $57.06, and Series B Warrants, exercise price of $62.28, both of which expired on July 31, 2023. During July 2023, an aggregate of 2.0 million Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants were exercised, and 1.9 million shares of common stock were issued in exchange for $111.5 million in cash proceeds. The remaining 3.1 million unexercised Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants expired according to their terms on July 31, 2023.

At September 30, 2024, we owned 213 vessels with an average age of 12.4 years available to serve the global offshore energy industry.

22

MD&A Objective and Principal Factors That Drive Our Results, Cash Flows and Liquidity

Our MD&A is designed to provide information about our financial condition and results of operations from management’s perspective.

Our revenues, net earnings and cash flows from operations are largely dependent upon the activity level of our offshore marine vessel fleet. As is the case with the numerous other vessel operators in our industry, our business activity is largely dependent on the level of exploration, field development and production activity of our customers. Our customers’ business activity, in turn, is dependent on current and expected crude oil and natural gas prices, which fluctuate depending on expected future levels of supply and demand for crude oil and natural gas, and on estimates of the cost to find, develop and produce crude oil and natural gas reserves. Our objective throughout the MD&A is to discuss how these factors affected our historical results and where applicable, how we expect these factors to impact our future results and future liquidity.

Our revenues in all segments are driven primarily by our active fleet size, active vessel utilization and day rates. Because a sizeable portion of our operating and depreciation costs do not change proportionally with changes in revenue, our operating profit is largely dependent on revenue levels.

Operating costs consist primarily of crew costs, repair and maintenance costs, insurance costs, fuel, lube oil and supplies costs and other vessel operating costs. Fleet size, fleet composition, geographic areas of operation, supply and demand for marine personnel, and local labor requirements are the major factors impacting overall crew costs in all segments. In addition, our newer, more technologically sophisticated vessels generally require a greater number of specially trained, more highly compensated fleet personnel than our older, smaller and less sophisticated vessels. Crew costs may increase if competition for skilled personnel intensifies.

Costs related to the recertification of vessels are deferred and amortized over 30 months on a straight-line basis. Maintenance costs incurred at the time of the recertification drydocking not related to the recertification of the vessel are expensed as incurred. Costs related to vessel improvements that either extend the vessel’s useful life or increase the vessel’s functionality are capitalized and depreciated.

Insurance costs are dependent on a variety of factors, including our safety record and pricing in the insurance markets, and can fluctuate over time. Our vessels are generally insured for up to their estimated fair market value in order to cover damage or loss. We also purchase coverage for potential liabilities stemming from third-party losses and cyber security breaches with limits that we believe are reasonable for our business and operations, but do not generally purchase business interruption insurance or similar coverage. During the past three years, we have not incurred any material costs, fines or penalties due to a direct or third-party vendor cybersecurity breach. Insurance limits are reviewed annually, and third-party coverage is purchased based on the expected scope of ongoing operations and the cost of third-party coverage.

Fuel and lube costs can fluctuate in any given period depending on the number and distance of vessel mobilizations, the number of active vessels off charter, drydockings, and changes in fuel prices. We also incur vessel operating costs aggregated as “other” vessel operating costs. These costs consist of brokers’ commissions, training costs, satellite communication fees, agent fees, port fees, freight and other miscellaneous costs. Brokers’ commissions are incurred primarily in our non-United States operations where brokers sometimes assist in obtaining work. Brokers generally are paid a percentage of day rates and, accordingly, commissions paid to brokers generally fluctuate in accordance with vessel revenue.

We discuss our liquidity in terms of cash flow that we generate from our operations. Our primary sources of capital have been our cash on hand, internally generated funds including operating cash flow, vessel sales and long-term debt financing. From time to time, we also issue stock or stock-based financial instruments either in the open market or as currency in acquisitions. This ability is impacted by existing market conditions.

23

Industry Conditions and Outlook

Our business is exposed to numerous macro factors that influence our outlook and expectations. Our outlook and expectations described herein are based solely on the market as we see it today, and therefore, subject to various changing conditions that impact the oil and gas industry.

We expect the supply-demand balance in the global offshore oil and gas markets to continue to be favorable for offshore activities by the major oil and gas producers. Factors driving this outlook include demand for hydrocarbons continuing to grow internationally, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries Plus (OPEC+) remaining proactive in maintaining adequate and stable oil prices, combined with a diminishing global supply of vessels to support the offshore energy industry. Energy prices are expected to remain volatile due to ongoing geopolitical conflicts, global inflationary trends, recent issues within OPEC+ regarding market share and pricing expectations, and associated actions from central banks as well as uncertainties surrounding the growth rates expected in key world economies.

Our business is directly impacted by the level of activity in worldwide offshore oil and gas exploration, development and production, which in turn is influenced by trends in oil and gas prices and the condition of the energy markets and, in particular, the willingness of energy companies to spend on offshore operational activities and capital projects. This activity includes improving demand for floating drilling rigs, which also directly impacts our industry.

Oil and gas prices are affected by a host of geopolitical and economic forces, including the fundamental principles of supply and demand. Offshore oil and gas exploration and development activities often require higher oil or gas prices to justify the higher expenditure levels of offshore activities compared to conventional onshore activities. Prices are subject to significant uncertainty and, as a result, are extremely volatile. Over the past several years, oil and gas commodity pricing has been affected by (i) a global pandemic, which included lock downs by major oil consuming nations; (ii) an ongoing war in eastern Europe between Russia and Ukraine, which includes sanctions on Russian oil production; (iii) an Israeli/Palestinian conflict, which has expanded into Lebanon, including threats from Iran, that has resulted in increased disruption of shipping in the Middle East; (iv) OPEC+ production quotas, market share expectations and pricing considerations; (v) resource growth in non-OPEC+ nations; (vi) capital allocation and discipline within the major oil and gas companies thereby limiting funds previously available for resource development; (vii) economies of major consuming nations; and (viii) increased activism related to the perceived responsibility of the oil and gas sector for climate change. These factors, as well as numerous other regional conflicts in producing regions, have at various times caused or exacerbated significant swings in oil and gas pricing, which in turn has affected the capital budgets of oil and gas companies. Despite the volatility in spot oil prices seen in recent years, our customers tend to consider less volatile medium and long-term prices in making offshore investment decisions. We continue to see positive upstream investment momentum in both the international and domestic markets. We believe these markets are driven by resilient long-cycle offshore developments, production capacity expansions and increased resource exploitation activities.

We are one of the world’s largest operators of offshore support vessels and we have operations in most of the world’s offshore oil and gas basins. We have also pursued opportunities in the sustainability arena, including the support of offshore wind energy generation, and continue to invest in our fleet to improve performance, increase efficiencies and reduce our emissions and environmental impact.

We have experienced a sustained period of growth in offshore exploration and production in the past two years which has been accompanied by much higher levels of activity and higher day rates for our vessels. However, some customers have recently paused or delayed additional activity on some projects, for a number of reasons, including logistical and supply chain bottlenecks, further evaluation of exploration results and longer than anticipated finalization of strategies for further development on successful projects in current and new regions. This has caused some temporary delays in certain projects and some realignment of future projects resulting in unanticipated idle time for some of our vessels. Although our business is impacted by a number of macro factors, including those factors discussed herein, which influence our outlook and expectations given the current volatile conditions in our industry, our day rates and vessel utilization remain elevated, and the industry outlook continues to be positive. We are of the opinion that the underlying fundamentals, particularly energy source supply and demand, will support a multi-year increase in offshore upstream development spending. We believe there will be sufficient opportunities for us to operate our vessels in this sector for many years to come.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Each of our five operating segments is led by senior management, the results are reviewed and resources are allocated by our Chief Executive Officer, the chief operating decision maker. Discrete financial information is available for each of the segments, and our Chief Executive Officer uses the results of each of the operating segments for resource allocation and performance evaluation.

The results of operations tables included below for the total company and the individual segments disclose financial results supplemented with average vessels, vessel utilization and average day rates.

Vessel utilization is determined primarily by market conditions and to a lesser extent by drydocking requirements. Vessel day rates are determined by the demand created largely through the level of offshore exploration, field development and production spending by energy companies relative to the supply of offshore support vessels. Specifications of available equipment and the scope of service provided may also influence vessel day rates. Vessel utilization rates are calculated by dividing the number of days a vessel works during a reporting period by the number of days the vessel is available to work in the reporting period. As such, stacked vessels depress utilization rates because stacked vessels are considered available to work and are included in the calculation of utilization rates. Average day rates are calculated by dividing the revenue a vessel earns during a reporting period by the number of days the vessel worked in the reporting period.

Total vessel utilization is calculated on all vessels in service (which includes stacked vessels, vessels held for sale and vessels in drydock). Active utilization is calculated on active vessels (which excludes vessels held for sale and stacked vessels). Average day rates are calculated based on total vessel days worked. Vessel operating costs per active days is calculated based on total available days less stacked days. Total vessels in service also includes three vessels not owned by us, that are under bareboat charter agreements. These vessels are included in all of our vessel statistics but are not included in the owned vessel count.

Revenue:

| ● | Increase primarily due to higher day rates in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2024 as demand remains strong for our vessels. The positive day rate effect on our revenues was partially offset by an increase in idle days between contracts as we moved vessels between areas and there were delays in returning to work for some vessels that had contract expirations. In addition, we have had some idle time due to temporary customer delays as they evaluate future activities on projects.
| ● | Active utilization decreased due to increased idle time and higher mobilization days.

Vessel operating costs:

| ● | Increase primarily due to higher crew costs and higher fuel costs associated with increased idle time. These cost components were largely offset by lower other operating costs primarily related to a customs duty settlement in the second quarter.

General and administrative:

| ● | Increase primarily due to higher compensation costs associated with increased headcount and higher professional fees in the third quarter compared to the second quarter.

26

Depreciation and amortization:

| ● | Increase due to higher amortization of drydock costs.

Gain on asset dispositions, net:

| ● | During the third quarter of 2024, we had no vessel sales and minimal other asset sales. During the second quarter of 2024, we sold one vessel from our active fleet for $2.4 million and recognized a $2.0 million gain.

Interest expense:

| ● | Decrease due to lower debt as we made $62.5 million in principal payments in the third quarter of 2024 and $14.0 million in the second quarter of 2024.

Interest income and other, net:

| ● | Decrease primarily due to lower cash balances in the third quarter.

Foreign exchange losses:

| ● | Our foreign exchange gains in the third quarter of 2024 and losses in the second quarter of 2024, were primarily the result of the settlement and revaluation of various foreign currency balances due to a strengthening/weakening of the U.S. Dollar against the Norwegian Kroner, Brazilian Real, Angola Kwanza, British Pound and Euro.

Income tax expense:

| ● | We are subject to taxes on our income in many jurisdictions worldwide and our actual tax expense can vary disproportionally to overall net income due to the mix of profits and losses in these foreign tax jurisdictions. Our tax expense for the third and second quarters of 2024 is mainly attributable to taxes on our operations in foreign countries.

Revenue:

| ● | Increase primarily driven by the significant increase in average day rates due to an increase in the proportion of vessels working in Australia where average day rates are higher, partially offset by the lower average active vessels and the significant decrease in utilization.
| ● | Utilization decreased due to higher drydock days and increased idle time.

Vessel operating costs:

| ● | Increase primarily due to higher crew wages driven by the increased proportion of vessels working in Australia where crew costs are higher. Additionally, we incurred higher than normal repair costs on a vessel in Australia.

General and administrative expense:

| ● | Increase due to increased headcount in Australia in the third quarter and slightly higher professional fees.

Depreciation and amortization expense:

Average active vessels |  |  | 216 |  |  |  | 193 |  |  |  | 23 |  |  |  |  |

Revenue:

| ● | Increase driven by almost 30% higher day rates coupled with the additional vessels from the Solstad Acquisition partially offset by slightly lower active utilization in the first nine months of 2024 compared to the first nine months of 2023. In the third quarter of 2023, we increased our vessel count by 37 with the Solstad Acquisition.
| ● | Solstad Vessels contributed $201.5 million and $59.1 million to revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Vessel operating costs:

| ● | Increase largely due to the addition of 37 vessels from the Solstad Acquisition and higher crew costs as we expand operations to higher cost regions.
| ● | Solstad Vessels added $109.6 million and $35.1 million to operating costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

33

General and administrative:

| ● | Increase primarily due to higher professional fees, higher salaries and compensation costs in 2024 mainly from the Solstad Acquisition, which was partially offset by higher bad debt recoveries and lower acquisition related transaction expenses in 2024.

Depreciation and amortization:

| ● | Increase due to the addition of 37 vessels from the Solstad Acquisition and increased drydock activity.
| ● | Solstad Vessels added $58.0 million and $22.4 million to depreciation and amortization for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Gain on asset dispositions, net:

| ● | During the first nine months of 2024, we sold four vessels from our active fleet for a total of $14.9 million and recognized gains totaling $13.1 million. During the first nine months of 2023, we sold or recycled seven vessels designated as held for sale and four vessels from our active fleet for a total of $9.6 million and recognized gains totaling $4.5 million.

Interest expense:

| ● | Increase due to the addition of $575.0 million in long term debt to partially fund the Solstad Acquisition.

Interest income and other, net:

| ● | Interest income increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023 as a result of substantially larger invested balances and higher rates of return.
| ● | During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized a $3.2 million charge for certain indemnity assets related to the Swire acquisition.
| ● | During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized a $1.8 million settlement gain in connection with an agreement committing our pension plan to use a portion of its assets to purchase an annuity from an insurance company so as to transfer its liabilities. This 2023 gain was largely offset by expenses related to old insurance treaties.

Foreign exchange losses:

| ● | During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, our foreign exchange losses and gains, respectively, were primarily the result of the settlement and revaluation of various foreign currency balances due to a strengthening/weakening of the U.S. Dollar against the Norwegian Kroner, Brazilian Real, Angola Kwanza, British Pound and Euro.

Income tax expense:

| ● | We are subject to taxes on our income in many jurisdictions worldwide and our actual tax expense can vary disproportionally to overall net income due to the mix of profits and losses in these foreign tax jurisdictions. Our tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, is mainly attributable to taxes on our operations in foreign countries.

Vessel Dispositions, Assets Held for Sale and Stacked Vessels

We may sell and/or recycle vessels when market conditions warrant and opportunities arise. We generally target older vessels or vessels that do not meet our strategic goals for sale but may also sell vessels when approached by third parties with positive value propositions. From time to time, we have designated vessels for sale under formal assets held for sale programs. The majority of our vessels are sold to buyers who do not compete with us in the offshore energy industry. Vessel sales during the first nine months of 2024 consisted of four vessels from our active fleet. We have no vessels classified as assets held for sale as of September 30, 2024.

We consider a vessel to be stacked if the vessel crew is furloughed or substantially reduced and limited maintenance is performed on the vessel. Although not currently fulfilling charters, stacked vessels are considered in service and included in the calculation of our utilization statistics. We include any vessel designated as assets held for sale in stacked vessels as they continue to incur stacking related costs. We had zero and two stacked vessels at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The decrease in stacked vessels is attributable to vessel sales.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Other Matters

As of September 30, 2024, we had $290.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, which includes restricted cash and amounts held by foreign subsidiaries, the majority of which is available to us without adverse tax consequences. Included in foreign subsidiary cash are balances held in U.S. dollars and foreign currencies that await repatriation due to various currency conversion and repatriation constraints, partner and tax related matters. We currently expect earnings by our foreign subsidiaries will be indefinitely reinvested in foreign jurisdictions to fund strategic initiatives (such as investment, expansion and acquisitions), fund working capital requirements and repay intercompany liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries in the normal course of business. Moreover, we do not currently intend to repatriate earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to the U.S. because cash generated from our domestic businesses and the repayment of intercompany liabilities from foreign subsidiaries are currently sufficient to fund the cash needs of our U.S. operations.

A key component of our growth strategy is expanding our business and fleets through acquisitions, joint ventures and other strategic transactions. We would expect to use net proceeds from any sale of our securities for general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures, investments, acquisitions, repayment or refinancing of indebtedness, and other business opportunities. In furtherance of this strategy and as discussed elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, on July 5, 2023, we closed the Solstad Acquisition pursuant to which we acquired 37 platform supply vessels for an aggregate adjusted cash purchase price of approximately $594.2 million. The purchase price was funded through a combination of cash on hand and net proceeds from both the Senior Secured Term Loan and from the 10.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2028 (Senior Secured Notes).

Our objective in financing our business is to maintain and preserve adequate financial resources and sufficient levels of liquidity. In addition to our cash on hand, we also have a $25.0 million revolving credit facility (RCF) that matures in 2026. No amounts have been drawn on this facility. As of September 30, 2024, we had $650.5 million of debt on our consolidated balance sheet, $53.1 million of which is due in the next twelve months. Working capital, which includes cash on hand, was $352.4 million at September 30, 2024. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we generated $142.7 million in net income and $182.5 million in cash flow from operating activities, which includes our interest payments and drydock costs. With the closing of the Solstad Acquisition, we added substantially to our debt, including current maturities, drydock obligations and interest costs. However, we expect to continue generating sufficient operating cashflow from the Solstad Vessels to meet the corresponding increase in our debt service obligations.

The Senior Secured Term Loan, the Senior Unsecured Notes, the 8.5% Senior Secured Notes due November 2026 and the revolving credit facility contain a combination of the following three financial covenants: (i) a minimum liquidity test equal to the greater of $20.0 million or 10% of net interest-bearing debt; (ii) a minimum equity ratio of 30%, in each case for us and our consolidated subsidiaries; and (iii) an interest coverage ratio of not less than 2:1. We are currently in compliance and anticipate maintaining ongoing compliance with these financial covenants.

40

We believe cash and cash equivalents, and future net cash provided by operating activities, will provide us with sufficient liquidity to fund our obligations and meet our liquidity requirements.

We signed agreements for the construction of ten new vessels. Upon delivery of each vessel, we may enter into Facility Agreements to finance a portion of the construction and delivery costs. Four vessels have been delivered through September 30, 2024, and we entered into Facility Agreements for approximately EUR13.9 million ($15.2 million) in financing. Each of the four Facility Agreements bears interest at rates ranging from 2.7% to 6.3% and are payable in ten equal principal semi-annual installments, with the first installment commencing approximately six months following delivery of the vessel. Payments for three of the delivered vessels began in the fourth quarter of 2023 while the fourth vessel payment commenced in the second quarter of 2024. Each Facility Agreement is secured by the respective vessel, guaranteed by Tidewater as parent guarantor and contain no financial covenants. We expect three more vessels to be delivered during the fourth quarter of 2024.

Please refer to Note (8) - “Debt” to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on our indebtedness.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that all information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, any control system, no matter how well conceived and followed, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

We evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2024.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
