Forward-looking statements include words or phrases such as "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "project," "could," "may," "might," "should," "will" and similar words and specifically include statements regarding expected financial performance; dividends; expected utilization, day rates, revenues, operating expenses, contract terms, contract backlog, capital expenditures, insurance, financing and funding; expected work commitments, awards and contracts; the timing of availability, delivery, mobilization, contract commencement or relocation or other movement of rigs; future rig construction (including construction in progress and completion thereof), enhancement, upgrade or repair and timing and cost thereof; the suitability of rigs for future contracts; the offshore drilling market, including supply and demand, customer drilling programs, stacking of rigs, effects of new rigs on the market and effects of declines in commodity prices; expected divestitures of assets; general market, business and industry conditions, trends and outlook; future operations; the impact of increasing regulatory complexity; our program to high-grade the rig fleet by investing in new equipment and divesting selected assets and underutilized rigs; expense management; and the likely outcome of litigation, legal proceedings, investigations or insurance or other claims or contract disputes and the timing thereof.
Such statements are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results to vary materially from those indicated, including:

• | our ability to successfully integrate the business, operations and employees of Atwood Oceanics, Inc. ("Atwood") and to realize synergies and cost savings in connection with our acquisition of Atwood;

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

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

• | downtime and other risks associated with offshore rig operations, including rig or equipment failure, damage and other unplanned repairs, the limited availability of transport vessels, hazards, self-imposed drilling limitations and other delays due to severe storms and hurricanes and the limited availability or high cost of insurance coverage for certain offshore perils, such as hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico or associated removal of wreckage or debris;

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

• | risks inherent to shipyard rig construction, repair, modification or upgrades, unexpected delays in equipment delivery, engineering, design or commissioning issues following delivery, or changes in the commencement, completion or service dates;

• | possible cancellation, suspension, renegotiation or termination (with or without cause) of drilling contracts as a result of general and industry-specific economic conditions, mechanical difficulties, performance or other reasons;

• | our ability to enter into, and the terms of, future drilling contracts, including contracts for our newbuild units and acquired rigs, for rigs currently idled and for rigs whose contracts are expiring;

• | any failure to execute definitive contracts following announcements of letters of intent, letters of award or other expected work commitments;

1

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

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

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

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

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

• | our ability to obtain financing, service our indebtedness and pursue other business opportunities may be limited by our debt levels, debt agreement restrictions and the credit ratings assigned to our debt by independent credit rating agencies;

• | the adequacy of sources of liquidity for us and our customers;

• | tax matters, including our effective tax rates, tax positions, results of audits, changes in tax laws, treaties and regulations, tax assessments and liabilities for taxes;

• | delays in contract commencement dates or the cancellation of drilling programs by operators;

• | the occurrence of cybersecurity incidents, attacks or other breaches to our information technology systems;

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

• | potential long-lived asset impairments.

In addition to the numerous risks, uncertainties and assumptions described above, you should also carefully read and consider "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part I and "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in Part II of this report and "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in Part I and "Item 7.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1.Financial Statements
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Ensco plc:
Results of Review of Interim Financial Information
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Ensco plc and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 30, 2018, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated interim financial information). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial information for it to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 27, 2018, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
Basis for Review Results
This consolidated interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of consolidated interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Note 1 -Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
We prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Ensco plc and subsidiaries (the "Company," "Ensco," "our," "we" or "us") in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") included in the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The financial information included in this report is unaudited but, in our opinion, includes all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The December 31, 2017 condensed consolidated balance sheet data were derived from our 2017 audited consolidated financial statements, but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the related revenues and expenses and disclosures of gain and loss contingencies as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The financial data for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 included herein have been subjected to a limited review by KPMG LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm. The accompanying independent registered public accounting firm's review report is not a report within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Securities Act, and the independent registered public accounting firm's liability under Section 11 does not extend to it.
Results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will be realized for the year ending December 31, 2018. We recommend these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2018, and our quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on April 26, 2018.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Update 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects From Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("Update 2018-02"), which allows for a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We adopted Update 2018-02 effective January 1, 2018. As a result, we reclassified a total of $800,000 in tax effects from AOCI to opening retained earnings.
In August 2017, the FASB issued Update 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities ("Update 2017-12"), which will make more hedging strategies eligible for hedge accounting. It also amends presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that Update 2017-12 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
10

During 2016, the FASB issued Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("Update 2016-02"), which requires an entity to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and to disclose key qualitative and quantitative information about the entity's leasing arrangements. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. During our evaluation of Update 2016-02, we concluded that our drilling contracts contain a lease component. In January 2018, the FASB issued a Proposed Accounting Standard Update to provide targeted improvements to Update 2016-02, which (1) provides for a new transition method whereby entities may elect to adopt the Update using a prospective with cumulative catch-up approach and (2) provides lessors with a practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the related lease components, by class of underlying asset. On March 28, 2018, the FASB held a meeting to approve certain additional amendments to Update 2016-02, including a revision to the practical expedient that would allow a lessor to account for the combined lease and non-lease components under Topic 606 (discussed below) when the non-lease component is the predominant element of the combined component. Depending on the criteria included in the final Update, this practical expedient may be available to us. As a result of the pending content of the final Update, we are not yet able to determine what, if any, impact our adoption will have on our revenue recognition patterns and related disclosures. With respect to leases whereby we are the lessee, we expect to recognize lease liabilities and offsetting "right of use" assets ranging from approximately $60 million to $80 million.
During 2014, the FASB issued Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("Update 2014-09"), which requires entities to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. Update 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. We adopted Update 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach. Only customer contracts that were not completed as of the effective adoption date were evaluated under the transition guidance to determine if a cumulative catch-up adjustment to retained earnings was warranted. Revenues recognized in prior years for customer contracts that expired prior to the effective adoption date continue to be reported under the previous revenue recognition guidance. Our adoption of Update 2014-09 did not result in a cumulative effect on retained earnings and no adjustments were made to prior periods. While Update 2014-09 requires additional disclosure regarding revenues recognized from customer contracts, our adoption did not have a material impact on the recognition of current or prior period revenues as compared to previous guidance nor do we expect a material impact to our pattern of revenue recognition in future periods. See "Note 2 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers" for additional information.
Note 2 -Revenue from Contracts with Customers
We provide drilling services on a day rate contract basis. Under day rate contracts, we provide an integrated service that includes the provision of a drilling rig and rig crews for which we receive a daily rate that may vary between the full rate and zero rate throughout the duration of the contractual term, depending on the operations of the rig. We also may receive lump-sum fees or similar compensation for the mobilization, demobilization and capital upgrades of our rigs. Our customers bear substantially all of the costs of constructing the well and supporting drilling operations, as well as the economic risk relative to the success of the well.
Our integrated drilling service provided under each drilling contract is a single performance obligation satisfied over time and comprised of a series of distinct time increments, or service periods. Total revenue is determined for each individual drilling contract by estimating both fixed and variable consideration expected to be earned over the contract term. Fixed consideration generally relates to activities such as mobilization, demobilization and capital upgrades of our rigs that are not distinct within the context of our contracts and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Variable consideration generally relates to distinct service periods during the contract term and is recognized in the period when the services are performed.
The amount estimated for variable consideration is only recognized as revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur during the contract term. We have applied the optional exemption afforded in Update 2014-09 and have not disclosed the variable consideration related to our estimated future day rate revenues. The remaining duration of our drilling contracts based on those in place as of June 30, 2018 was between approximately one month and five years.
11

Day Rate Drilling Revenue
Our drilling contracts provide for payment on a day rate basis and include a rate schedule with higher rates for periods when the drilling unit is operating and lower rates or zero rates for periods when drilling operations are interrupted or restricted. The day rate invoiced to the customer is determined based on the varying rates applicable to specific activities performed on an hourly basis. Day rate consideration is allocated to the distinct hourly increment to which it relates within the contract term and is generally recognized consistent with the contractual rate invoiced for the services provided during the respective period. Invoices are typically issued to our customers on a monthly basis and payment terms on customer invoices typically range from 30 to 45 days.
Certain of our contracts contain performance incentives whereby we may earn a bonus based on pre-established performance criteria. Such incentives are generally based on our performance over individual monthly time periods or individual wells. Consideration related to performance bonus is generally recognized in the specific time period to which the performance criteria was attributed.
We may receive termination fees if certain drilling contracts are terminated by the customer prior to the end of the contractual term. Such compensation is recognized as revenues when our performance obligation is satisfied, the termination fee can be reasonably measured and collection is probable.
Mobilization / Demobilization Revenue
In connection with certain contracts, we receive lump-sum fees or similar compensation for the mobilization of equipment and personnel prior to the commencement of drilling services or the demobilization of equipment and personnel upon contract completion. Fees received for the mobilization or demobilization of equipment and personnel are included in operating revenues. The costs incurred in connection with the mobilization and demobilization of equipment and personnel are included in contract drilling expense.
Mobilization fees received prior to commencement of drilling operations are recorded as a contract liability and amortized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Demobilization fees expected to be received upon contract completion are estimated at contract inception and recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. In some cases, demobilization fees may be contingent upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of a future event. In such cases, this may result in cumulative-effect adjustments to demobilization revenues upon changes in our estimates of future events during the contract term.
Capital Upgrade / Contract Preparation Revenue
In connection with certain contracts, we receive lump-sum fees or similar compensation for requested capital upgrades to our drilling rigs or for other contract preparation work. Fees received for requested capital upgrades and other contract preparation work are recorded as a contract liability and amortized on a straight-line basis over the contract term to operating revenues. Costs incurred for capital upgrades are capitalized and depreciated over the useful life of the asset.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Contract assets represent amounts previously recognized as revenue but for which the right to invoice the customer is dependent upon our future performance. Once the previously recognized revenue is invoiced, the corresponding contract asset, or a portion thereof, is transferred to accounts receivable. Contract liabilities generally represent fees received for mobilization or capital upgrades.

Contract assets and liabilities are presented net on our condensed consolidated balance sheet on a contract-by-contract basis. Current contract assets and liabilities are included in other current assets and accrued liabilities and other, respectively, and noncurrent contract assets and liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Deferred Contract Costs
Costs incurred for upfront rig mobilizations and certain contract preparations are attributable to our future performance obligation under each respective drilling contract. Such costs are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Demobilization costs are recognized as incurred upon contract completion. Costs associated with the mobilization of equipment and personnel to more promising market areas without contracts are expensed as incurred. Deferred contract costs were included in other current assets and other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and totaled $39.2 million and $40.6 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, amortization of such costs totaled $9.1 million and $15.9 million, respectively. During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2017, amortization of such costs totaled $8.2 million and $14.7 million, respectively.
Deferred Certification Costs
We must obtain certifications from various regulatory bodies in order to operate our drilling rigs and must maintain such certifications through periodic inspections and surveys. The costs incurred in connection with maintaining such certifications, including inspections, tests, surveys and drydock, as well as remedial structural work and other compliance costs, are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the corresponding certification periods. Deferred regulatory certification and compliance costs were included in other current assets and other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and totaled $14.2 million and $15.3 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, amortization of such costs totaled $3.2 million and $6.3 million, respectively. During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2017, amortization of such costs totaled $2.8 million and $5.9 million, respectively.

Note 3 -Acquisition of Atwood
On October 6, 2017 (the "Merger Date"), we completed a merger transaction (the "Merger") with Atwood Oceanics, Inc. ("Atwood") and Echo Merger Sub, LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Merger were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the Merger Date under the acquisition method of accounting. When the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the consideration transferred in an acquisition, the difference is recorded as a bargain purchase gain in the period in which the transaction occurs. With the exception of certain spare parts and equipment and legal and tax exposures, we have substantially completed our fair value assessments of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. While certain adjustments may be recorded during the remainder of the measurement period, we do not expect them to be material.
Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed
The provisional amounts and respective measurement period adjustments recorded for assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on preliminary estimates of their fair values as of the Merger Date and were as follows (in millions):

| Amounts Recognized as of Merger Date |  | Measurement Period Adjustments (1) |  | Estimated Fair Value
Assets: |  |  |  |  |
Cash and cash equivalents(2) | $ | 445.4 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 445.4 |
Accounts receivable(3) | 62.3 |  |  | (1.6 | ) |  | 60.7 |
Other current assets | 118.1 |  |  | 4.7 |  |  | 122.8 |
Property and equipment | 1,762.0 |  |  | 9.2 |  |  | 1,771.2 |
Other assets | 23.7 |  |  | (2.9 | ) |  | 20.8 |
Liabilities: |  |  |  |  |
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities | 64.9 |  |  | (2.3 | ) |  | 62.6 |
Other liabilities | 118.7 |  |  | 3.4 |  |  | 122.1 |
Net assets acquired | 2,227.9 |  |  | 8.3 |  |  | 2,236.2 |
Less: |  |  |  |  |
Merger consideration | (781.8 | ) |  |  |  | (781.8 | )
Repayment of Atwood debt | (1,305.9 | ) |  |  |  | (1,305.9 | )
Bargain purchase gain | $ | 140.2 |  |  |  |  | $ | 148.5 |

(1) | The measurement period adjustments reflect changes in the estimated fair values of certain assets and liabilities, primarily related to inventory, capital equipment and accrued non-income tax liabilities. The measurement period adjustments were recorded to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances existing as of the Merger Date and did not result from subsequent intervening events. The adjustments recorded resulted in an $8.3 million decline and an $8.3 million increase to bargain purchase gain during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and are included in other, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(2) | Upon closing of the Merger, we utilized acquired cash of $445.4 million and cash on hand from the liquidation of short-term investments to repay Atwood's debt and accrued interest of $1.3 billion.

(3) Gross contractual amounts receivable totaled $64.7 million as of the Merger Date.
15

Bargain Purchase Gain
The estimated fair values assigned to assets acquired net of liabilities assumed exceeded the consideration transferred, resulting in a bargain purchase gain primarily due to depressed offshore drilling company valuations. Market capitalizations across the offshore drilling industry have declined significantly since mid-2014 due to the decline in commodity prices and the related imbalance of supply and demand for drilling rigs. The resulting bargain purchase gain was further driven by the decline in our share price from $6.70 to $5.83 between the last trading day prior to the announcement of the Merger and the Merger Date.
Intangible Assets and Liabilities
We recorded intangible assets totaling $30.1 million representing the estimated fair value of Atwood's firm drilling contracts in place at the Merger Date with favorable contract terms compared to then-market day rates for comparable drilling rigs.
Operating revenues were net of $4.3 million and $5.8 million of asset amortization during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The remaining balance of $8.2 million was included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018. This balance will be amortized to operating revenues over the remaining drilling contract term on a straight-line basis totaling $5.6 million and $2.6 million during the remainder of 2018 and full year 2019, respectively.
We recorded intangible liabilities of $60.0 million for the estimated fair value of unfavorable drillship construction contracts, which were determined by comparing the firm obligations for the remaining construction of ENSCO DS-13 and ENSCO DS-14 to the estimated current market rates for the construction of a comparable drilling rig. The liabilities will be amortized over the estimated life of ENSCO DS-13 and ENSCO DS-14 as a reduction of depreciation expense beginning on the date the rig is placed into service.
Note 4 -Fair Value Measurements
The following fair value hierarchy table categorizes information regarding our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in millions):

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Assets
Our supplemental executive retirement plans (the "SERP") are non-qualified plans that provide eligible employees an opportunity to defer a portion of their compensation for use after retirement. Assets held in the SERP were marketable securities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 1 inputs and were included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value measurement of assets held in the SERP was based on quoted market prices.
Derivatives
Our derivatives are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs. See "Note 5 - Derivative Instruments" for additional information on our derivatives, including a description of our foreign currency hedging activities and related methodologies used to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk. The fair value measurement of our derivatives was based on market prices that are generally observable for similar assets or liabilities at commonly-quoted intervals.
Other Financial Instruments
The carrying values and estimated fair values of our long-term debt instruments were as follows (in millions):

(1) | Our senior notes due 2019 were redeemed in full in February 2018. See "Note 7 - Debt" for additional information.

(2) | The reduction in carrying value of our seniors notes due 2020 and senior notes due 2021 was attributable to repurchases and redemptions during the first quarter of 2018.

(3) | Our exchangeable senior notes due 2024 (the "2024 Convertible Notes") were issued with a conversion feature. The 2024 Convertible Notes were separated into their liability and equity components on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The equity component was initially recorded to additional paid-in capital and as a debt discount that will be amortized to interest expense over the life of the instrument. Excluding the unamortized discount, the carrying value of the 2024 Convertible Notes was $835.1 million and $834.0 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

The estimated fair values of our senior notes and debentures were determined using quoted market prices, which are level 1 inputs.
17

The estimated fair values of our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, receivables, trade payables and other liabilities approximated their carrying values as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. Our short-term investments consisted of time deposits with initial maturities in excess of three months but less than one year as of each respective balance sheet date.
Note 5 -Derivative Instruments
Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar. As is customary in the oil and gas industry, a majority of our revenues are denominated in U.S. dollars; however, a portion of the revenues earned and expenses incurred by certain of our subsidiaries are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. These transactions are remeasured in U.S. dollars based on a combination of both current and historical exchange rates. We use foreign currency forward contracts to reduce our exposure to various market risks, primarily foreign currency exchange rate risk.
All derivatives were recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Derivatives subject to legally enforceable master netting agreements were not offset in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accounting for the gains and losses resulting from changes in derivative fair value depends on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. Net liabilities of $6.5 million and net assets of $6.8 million associated with our foreign currency forward contracts were included on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. All of our derivative instruments mature during the next 18 months. See "Note 4 - Fair Value Measurements" for additional information on the fair value measurement of our derivatives.
Derivatives recorded at fair value on our condensed consolidated balance sheets consisted of the following (in millions):

| Derivative Assets |  | Derivative Liabilities

(1) | Derivative assets and liabilities with maturity dates equal to or less than twelve months from the respective balance sheet date were included in other current assets and accrued liabilities and other, respectively, on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

(2) | Derivative assets and liabilities with maturity dates greater than twelve months from the respective balance sheet date were included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We utilize cash flow hedges to hedge forecasted foreign currency denominated transactions, primarily to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with contract drilling expenses and capital expenditures denominated in various currencies. As of June 30, 2018, we had cash flow hedges outstanding to exchange an aggregate $212.1 million for various foreign currencies, including $82.5 million for British pounds, $69.2 million for Australian dollars, $24.2 million for euros, $14.9 million for Brazilian reals, $14.5 million for Singapore dollars and $6.8 million for other currencies.

(1) | Changes in the effective portion of cash flow hedge fair values are recorded in AOCI. Amounts recorded in AOCI associated with cash flow hedges are subsequently reclassified into contract drilling, depreciation or interest expense as earnings are affected by the underlying hedged forecasted transaction.

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

(3) | Losses on interest rate lock derivatives reclassified from AOCI into income were included in interest expense, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(4) | During the three-month period ended June 30, 2018, there were $500,000 of gains reclassified from AOCI into contract drilling expense and $200,000 of gains were reclassified from AOCI into depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2017, $400,000 of losses were reclassified from AOCI into contract drilling expense and $200,000 of gains were reclassified from AOCI into depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

(5) | During the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, $2.6 million of gains were reclassified from AOCI into contract drilling expense and $400,000 of gains were reclassified from AOCI into depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2017, $1.4 million of losses were reclassified from AOCI into contract drilling expense and $400,000 of gains were reclassified from AOCI into depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

19

We have net assets and liabilities denominated in numerous foreign currencies and use various methods to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk. We predominantly structure our drilling contracts in U.S. dollars, which significantly reduces the portion of our cash flows and assets denominated in foreign currencies. We occasionally enter into derivatives that hedge the fair value of recognized foreign currency denominated assets or liabilities but do not designate such derivatives as hedging instruments. In these situations, a natural hedging relationship generally exists whereby changes in the fair value of the derivatives offset changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged items. As of June 30, 2018, we held derivatives not designated as hedging instruments to exchange an aggregate $153.2 million for various foreign currencies, including $96.8 million for euros, $22.2 million for Australian dollars, $11.6 million for Indonesian rupiahs, $8.4 million for Brazilian reals, $6.5 million for British pounds, and $7.7 million for other currencies.
Net losses of $9.3 million and net gains of $5.7 million associated with our derivatives not designated as hedging instruments were included in other, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net losses of $7.5 million and net gains of $6.2 million associated with our derivatives not designated as hedging instruments were included in other, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. These gains and losses were partially offset by net foreign currency exchange gains and losses during the respective periods.
As of June 30, 2018, the estimated amount of net losses associated with derivative instruments, net of tax, that would be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months totaled $2.3 million.
Note 6 - Earnings Per Share
We compute basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") in accordance with the two-class method. Net loss attributable to Ensco used in our computations of basic and diluted EPS is adjusted to exclude net income allocated to non-vested shares granted to our employees and non-employee directors. Weighted-average shares outstanding used in our computation of diluted EPS is calculated using the treasury stock method and excludes non-vested shares.
During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, all income attributable to noncontrolling interests was from continuing operations. The following table is a reconciliation of loss from continuing operations attributable to Ensco shares used in our basic and diluted EPS computations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 (in millions):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2018 |  | 2017 |  | 2018 |  | 2017
Loss from continuing operations attributable to Ensco | $ | (143.0 | ) |  | $ | (45.9 | ) |  | $ | (283.0 | ) |  | $ | (71.0 | )
Income from continuing operations allocated to non-vested share awards(1) | (.1 | ) |  | (.1 | ) |  | (.2 | ) |  | (.2 | )
Loss from continuing operations attributable to Ensco shares | $ | (143.1 | ) |  | $ | (46.0 | ) |  | $ | (283.2 | ) |  | $ | (71.2 | )

(1) | Losses are not allocated to non-vested share awards. Therefore, only dividends attributable to our non-vested share awards are included for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Anti-dilutive share awards totaling 1.7 million were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018. Anti-dilutive share awards totaling 1.3 million were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2017.

We have the option to settle our 2024 Convertible Notes in cash, shares or a combination thereof for the aggregate amount due upon conversion. Our intent is to settle the principal amount of the 2024 Convertible Notes in cash upon conversion. If the conversion value exceeds the principal amount (i.e., our share price exceeds the exchange price on the date of conversion), we expect to deliver shares equal to the remainder of our conversion obligation in excess of the principal amount.
During each reporting period that our average share price exceeds the exchange price, an assumed number of shares required to settle the conversion obligation in excess of the principal amount will be included in our denominator for the computation of diluted EPS using the treasury stock method. Our average share price did not exceed the exchange price during the three-month or six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017.
Note 7 -Debt
Senior Notes
On January 26, 2018, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured 7.75% senior notes due 2026 at par (the "2026 Notes"). Interest on the 2026 Notes is payable semiannually on February 1 and August 1 of each year commencing August 1, 2018.
Tender Offers and Redemption
Concurrent with the issuance of the 2026 Notes in January 2018, we launched cash tender offers for up to $985.0 million aggregate principal amount of certain series of our senior notes issued by us and Pride International LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary. The tender offers expired February 7, 2018, and we repurchased $182.6 million of our 8.50% senior notes due 2019, $256.6 million of our 6.875% senior notes due 2020 and $156.2 million of our 4.70% senior notes due 2021. Subsequently, we issued a redemption notice for the remaining outstanding $55.0 million principal amount of the 8.50% senior notes due 2019 and repurchased $71.4 million principal amount of our senior notes due 2020.
The following table sets forth the total principal amounts repurchased as a result of the tender offers, redemption and repurchase (in millions):

| Aggregate Principal Amount Repurchased |  | Aggregate Repurchase Price(1)
8.50% senior notes due 2019 | $ | 237.6 |  |  | $ | 256.8 |
6.875% senior notes due 2020 | 328.0 |  |  | 354.7 |
4.70% Senior notes due 2021 | 156.2 |  |  | 159.7 |
Total | $ | 721.8 |  |  | $ | 771.2 |

(1) | Excludes accrued interest paid to holders of the repurchased senior notes.

During the first quarter of 2018, we recognized a pre-tax loss from debt extinguishment of $19.0 million, net of discounts, premiums, debt issuance costs and commissions.
Maturities
Following the January 2018 debt offering, repurchases and redemption, our only debt maturities until 2024 are $122.9 million during 2020 and $113.5 million during 2021.
21

Revolving Credit Facility
We have a $2.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility ("Credit Facility") with a syndicate of banks to be used for general corporate purposes. Our borrowing capacity is $2.0 billion through September 2019 and declines to $1.3 billion through September 2020 and to $1.2 billion through September 2022. The credit agreement governing the Credit Facility includes an accordion feature allowing us to increase the commitments expiring in September 2022 up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $1.5 billion.
Advances under the Credit Facility bear interest at Base Rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin rate, depending on our credit ratings. We are required to pay a quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the $2.0 billion commitment, which is also based on our credit rating.
In January 2018, Moody's downgraded our senior unsecured bond credit rating from B2 to B3. The rating actions resulted in an increase to the interest rates applicable to our borrowings and the quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the $2.0 billion commitment. The applicable margin rates are 3.00% per annum for Base Rate advances and 4.00% per annum for LIBOR advances. The quarterly commitment fee is 0.75% per annum on the undrawn portion of the $2.0 billion commitment.
The Credit Facility requires us to maintain a total debt to total capitalization ratio that is less than or equal to 60% and to provide guarantees from certain of our rig-owning subsidiaries sufficient to meet certain guarantee coverage ratios. The Credit Facility also contains customary restrictive covenants, including, among others, prohibitions on creating, incurring or assuming certain debt and liens (subject to customary exceptions, including a permitted lien basket that permits us to raise secured debt up to the lesser of $750 million or 10% of consolidated tangible net worth (as defined in the Credit Facility)); entering into certain merger arrangements; selling, leasing, transferring or otherwise disposing of all or substantially all of our assets; making a material change in the nature of the business; paying or distributing dividends on our ordinary shares (subject to certain exceptions, including the ability to continue paying a quarterly dividend of $0.01 per share); borrowings, if after giving effect to any such borrowings and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate amount of available cash (as defined in the Credit Facility) would exceed $150 million; and entering into certain transactions with affiliates.
The Credit Facility also includes a covenant restricting our ability to repay indebtedness maturing after September 2022, which is the final maturity date of our Credit Facility. This covenant is subject to certain exceptions that permit us to manage our balance sheet, including the ability to make repayments of indebtedness (i) of acquired companies within 90 days of the completion of the acquisition or (ii) if, after giving effect to such repayments, available cash is greater than $250 million and there are no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility.
As of June 30, 2018, we were in compliance in all material respects with our covenants under the Credit Facility. We had no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Our access to credit and capital markets depends on the credit ratings assigned to our debt. As a result of recent rating actions, we do not maintain an investment-grade status. Our current credit ratings, and any additional actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings, could limit our available options when accessing credit and capital markets, or when restructuring or refinancing our debt. In addition, future financings or refinancings may result in higher borrowing costs and require more restrictive terms and covenants, which may further restrict our operations.

Note 8 -Share-based Compensation
During the quarter ended June 30, 2018, we granted 4.7 million non-vested share awards to our employees pursuant to our 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan, which was approved by our shareholders at our annual general meeting in May. Grants of our non-vested share awards generally vest at rates of 20% per year, as determined by a committee or subcommittee of the Board of Directors at the time of grant. The non-vested share awards have dividend rights effective on the date of grant. Compensation expense for awards to be settled in cash is remeasured each quarter with a cumulative adjustment to compensation cost during the period based on changes in our share price. The weighted-average grant date fair value for our non-vested share awards that were granted during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 was $6.58.
Note 9 -Income Taxes
Historically, we have calculated our provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to pre-tax income or loss, excluding discrete items, for the reporting period. We determined that since small changes in estimated pre-tax income or loss would result in significant changes in the estimated annual effective tax rate, the historical method would not provide a reliable estimate of income taxes for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. We used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate income taxes for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018. We will continue to evaluate income tax estimates under the historical method in subsequent quarters and employ a discrete effective tax rate method if warranted.
Discrete income tax benefit for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 was $2.3 million and was primarily attributable to U.S. tax reform, partially offset by discrete tax expense related to rig sales and unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years. Discrete income tax benefit for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 was $11.2 million and was primarily attributable to U.S. tax reform and a restructuring transaction, partially offset by discrete tax expense related to repurchase and redemption of senior notes, the effective settlement of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years and rig sales.
Discrete income tax expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 was $2.2 million and was primarily attributable to the debt exchange and repurchases we undertook during the first quarter of 2017 and a settlement of a previously disclosed legal contingency. Discrete income tax expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 was $9.8 million and was primarily attributable to the exchange offers and debt repurchases, a restructuring transaction, the effective settlement of a liability for unrecognized tax benefits associated with a tax position taken in prior years and a settlement of a previously disclosed legal contingency.
U.S Tax Reform
The U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. tax reform”) was enacted on December 22, 2017 and introduced significant changes to U.S. income tax law, including a reduction in the statutory income tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018, a one-time transition tax on deemed repatriation of deferred foreign income, a base erosion anti-abuse tax that effectively imposes a minimum tax on certain payments to non-U.S. affiliates, new and revised rules relating to the current taxation of certain income of foreign subsidiaries and revised rules associated with limitations on the deduction of interest.
23

Due to the timing of the enactment of U.S. tax reform and the complexity involved in applying its provisions, we made reasonable estimates of its effects and recorded such amounts in our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017 on a provisional basis. As we continue to analyze applicable information and data, and interpret any additional guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury Department, the Internal Revenue Service and others, we may make adjustments to the provisional amounts throughout the one-year measurement period as provided by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. Our accounting for the enactment of U.S. tax reform will be completed during 2018, and any adjustments we recognize could be material. The ongoing impact of U.S. tax reform may result in an increase in our consolidated effective income tax rate in future periods.
During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, we recognized a tax benefit of $7.1 million and $11.7 million, respectively, associated with the one-time transition tax on deemed repatriation of the deferred foreign income of our U.S. subsidiaries.
Note 10 -Contingencies
Brazil Internal Investigation
Pride International LLC, formerly Pride International, Inc. (“Pride”), a company we acquired in 2011, commenced drilling operations in Brazil in 2001. In 2008, Pride entered into a drilling services agreement with Petrobras (the "DSA") for ENSCO DS-5, a drillship ordered from Samsung Heavy Industries, a shipyard in South Korea ("SHI"). Beginning in 2006, Pride conducted periodic compliance reviews of its business with Petrobras, and, after the acquisition of Pride, Ensco conducted similar compliance reviews.
We commenced a compliance review in early 2015 after the release of media reports regarding ongoing investigations of various kickback and bribery schemes in Brazil involving Petrobras. While conducting our compliance review, we became aware of an internal audit report by Petrobras alleging irregularities in relation to the DSA. Upon learning of the Petrobras internal audit report, our Audit Committee appointed independent counsel to lead an investigation into the alleged irregularities. Further, in June and July 2015, we voluntarily contacted the SEC and the U.S. Department of Justice (the "DOJ"), respectively, to advise them of this matter and of our Audit Committee’s investigation. Independent counsel, under the direction of our Audit Committee, has substantially completed its investigation by reviewing and analyzing available documents and correspondence and interviewing current and former employees involved in the DSA negotiations and the negotiation of the ENSCO DS-5 construction contract with SHI (the "DS-5 Construction Contract").
To date, our Audit Committee has found no credible evidence that Pride or Ensco or any of their current or former employees were aware of or involved in any wrongdoing, and our Audit Committee has found no credible evidence linking Ensco or Pride to any illegal acts committed by our former marketing consultant who provided services to Pride and Ensco in connection with the DSA. We, through independent counsel, have continued to cooperate with the SEC and DOJ, including providing detailed briefings regarding our investigation and findings and responding to inquiries as they arise. We entered into a one-year tolling agreement with the DOJ that expired in December 2016. Our tolling agreement with the SEC expired in June 2018.
Subsequent to initiating our Audit Committee investigation, Brazilian court documents connected to the prosecution of former Petrobras directors and employees as well as certain other third parties, including our former marketing consultant, referenced the alleged irregularities cited in the Petrobras internal audit report. Our former marketing consultant has entered into a plea agreement with the Brazilian authorities. On January 10, 2016, Brazilian authorities filed an indictment against a former Petrobras director. This indictment states that the former Petrobras director received bribes paid out of proceeds from a brokerage agreement entered into for purposes of intermediating a drillship construction contract between SHI and Pride, which we believe to be the DS-5 Construction Contract. The parties to the brokerage agreement were a company affiliated with a person acting on behalf of the former Petrobras director, a company affiliated with our former marketing consultant, and SHI. The indictment alleges that amounts paid by SHI under the brokerage agreement ultimately were used to pay bribes to the former Petrobras director. The
24

indictment does not state that Pride or Ensco or any of their current or former employees were involved in the bribery scheme or had any knowledge of the bribery scheme.
On January 4, 2016, we received a notice from Petrobras declaring the DSA void effective immediately. Petrobras’ notice alleges that our former marketing consultant both received and procured improper payments from SHI for employees of Petrobras and that Pride had knowledge of this activity and assisted in the procurement of and/or facilitated these improper payments. We disagree with Petrobras’ allegations. See "DSA Dispute" below for additional information.
In August 2017, one of our Brazilian subsidiaries was contacted by the Office of the Attorney General for the Brazilian state of Paraná in connection with a criminal investigation procedure initiated against agents of both SHI and Pride in relation to the DSA. The Brazilian authorities requested information regarding our compliance program and the findings of our internal investigations. We cooperated with the Office of the Attorney General and provided documents in response to its request. We cannot predict the scope or ultimate outcome of this procedure or whether any other governmental authority will open an investigation into Pride’s involvement in this matter, or if a proceeding were opened, the scope or ultimate outcome of any such investigation. If the SEC or DOJ determines that violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (the "FCPA") have occurred, or if any governmental authority determines that we have violated applicable anti-bribery laws, they could seek civil and criminal sanctions, including monetary penalties, against us, as well as changes to our business practices and compliance programs, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. Although our internal investigation is substantially complete, we cannot predict whether any additional allegations will be made or whether any additional facts relevant to the investigation will be uncovered during the course of the investigation and what impact those allegations and additional facts will have on the timing or conclusions of the investigation. Our Audit Committee will examine any such additional allegations and additional facts and the circumstances surrounding them.
DSA Dispute
As described above, on January 4, 2016, Petrobras sent a notice to us declaring the DSA void effective immediately, reserving its rights and stating its intention to seek any restitution to which it may be entitled. We disagree with Petrobras’ declaration that the DSA is void. We believe that Petrobras repudiated the DSA and has therefore accepted the DSA as terminated on April 8, 2016 (the "Termination Date"). At this time, we cannot reasonably determine the validity of Petrobras' claim or the range of our potential exposure, if any. As a result, there can be no assurance as to how this dispute will ultimately be resolved.
We did not recognize revenue for amounts owed to us under the DSA from the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2015 through the Termination Date, as we concluded that collectability of these amounts was not reasonably assured. Additionally, our receivables from Petrobras related to the DSA from prior to the fourth quarter of 2015 are fully reserved in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018. In August 2016, we initiated arbitration proceedings in the U.K. against Petrobras seeking payment of all amounts owed to us under the DSA, in addition to any other amounts to which we are entitled, and intend to vigorously pursue our claims. Petrobras subsequently filed a counterclaim seeking restitution of certain sums paid under the DSA less value received by Petrobras under the DSA. The arbitral hearing on liability was held in March 2018, and we are awaiting the tribunal's decision. There can be no assurance as to how this arbitration proceeding will ultimately be resolved.
In November 2016, we initiated separate arbitration proceedings in the U.K. against SHI for any losses we incur in connection with the foregoing Petrobras arbitration. SHI subsequently filed a statement of defense disputing our claim. In January 2018, the arbitration tribunal for the SHI matter issued an award on liability fully in Ensco’s favor. SHI is liable to us for $10 million or damages that we can prove. As the losses suffered by us will depend in part on the outcome of the Petrobras arbitration described above, the amount of damages to be paid by SHI will be determined after the conclusion of the Petrobras arbitration. We are unable to estimate the ultimate outcome of recovery for damages at this time.
25

Other Matters
In addition to the foregoing, we are named defendants or parties in certain other lawsuits, claims or proceedings incidental to our business and are involved from time to time as parties to governmental investigations or proceedings, including matters related to taxation, arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and the amount of any liability that could arise with respect to such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted accurately, we do not expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows.
In the ordinary course of business with customers and others, we have entered into letters of credit to guarantee our performance as it relates to our drilling contracts, contract bidding, customs duties, tax appeals and other obligations in various jurisdictions. Letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2018 totaled $125.4 million and are issued under facilities provided by various banks and other financial institutions. Obligations under these letters of credit and surety bonds are not normally called, as we typically comply with the underlying performance requirement. As of June 30, 2018, we had not been required to make collateral deposits with respect to these agreements.
Note 11 -Segment Information
Our business consists of three operating segments: (1) Floaters, which includes our drillships and semisubmersible rigs, (2) Jackups and (3) Other, which consists of management services on rigs owned by third-parties. Our two reportable segments, Floaters and Jackups, provide one service, contract drilling.
Segment information for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 is presented below (in millions). General and administrative expense and depreciation expense incurred by our corporate office are not allocated to our operating segments for purposes of measuring segment operating income and are included in "Reconciling Items." We measure segment assets as property and equipment.

Concentration of Risk
We are exposed to credit risk related to our receivables from customers, our cash and cash equivalents, our short-term investments and our use of derivatives in connection with the management of foreign currency exchange rate risk. We mitigate our credit risk relating to receivables from customers, which consist primarily of major international, government-owned and independent oil and gas companies, by performing ongoing credit evaluations. We also maintain reserves for potential credit losses, which generally have been within our expectations. We mitigate our credit risk relating to cash and cash equivalents by focusing on diversification and quality of instruments. Cash equivalents consist of a portfolio of high-grade instruments. Custody of cash and cash equivalents is maintained at several well-capitalized financial institutions, and we monitor the financial condition of those financial institutions.
We mitigate our credit risk relating to derivative counterparties through a variety of techniques, including transacting with multiple, high-quality financial institutions, thereby limiting our exposure to individual counterparties and by entering into International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. ("ISDA") Master Agreements, which include provisions for a legally enforceable master netting agreement, with almost all of our derivative counterparties. The terms of the ISDA agreements may also include credit support requirements, cross default provisions, termination events or set-off provisions. Legally enforceable master netting agreements reduce credit risk by providing protection in bankruptcy in certain circumstances and generally permitting the closeout and netting of transactions with the same counterparty upon the occurrence of certain events. See "Note 5 - Derivative Instruments" for additional information on our derivatives.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2018 and for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 included elsewhere herein and with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our annual report and elsewhere in this quarterly report. See “Forward-Looking Statements.”
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Our Business
We are one of the leading providers of offshore contract drilling services to the international oil and gas industry. We currently own and operate an offshore drilling rig fleet of 58 rigs, with drilling operations in most of the strategic markets around the globe. We also have three rigs under construction. Our rig fleet includes 12 drillships, nine dynamically positioned semisubmersible rigs, four moored semisubmersible rigs and 36 jackup rigs, including rigs under construction. We operate the world's largest fleet amongst competitive rigs, including one of the newest ultra-deepwater fleets in the industry and a leading premium jackup fleet.
Our Industry
Oil prices increased significantly during the second half of 2017 and into the first half of 2018, with prices remaining above $70 per barrel for most of the second quarter. While commodity prices have improved, we expect near-term market conditions to remain challenging and the recovery in demand for contract drilling services to be gradual with different segments of the market recovering more quickly than others. In addition to a sustained increase in commodity prices, we believe further improvements in demand coupled with a reduction in rig supply are necessary to generate meaningful increases in day rates.
While industry conditions remain challenging, we have observed improvements in the shallow-water market as higher levels of customer demand and rig retirements have led to gradually increasing jackup utilization over the past year. Moreover, new floater contracts and open tenders have increased as compared to a year ago due to higher commodity prices and improved break-even economics for deepwater projects. Despite the increase in customer activity, recent contract awards have been subject to an extremely competitive bidding process. The intense pressure on operating day rates in recent periods has resulted in low margin contracts. Therefore, we expect our results from operations to continue to decline in 2018 as current contracts with above market rates expire and new contracts are executed at lower rates.
Liquidity Position
We have historically relied on our cash flow from continuing operations to meet liquidity needs and fund the majority of our cash requirements. We periodically rely on the issuance of debt and/or equity securities to supplement our liquidity needs. Based on our balance sheet, our contractual backlog and $2.0 billion available under our Credit Facility, we expect to fund our short-term and long-term liquidity needs, including contractual obligations and anticipated capital expenditures, as well as working capital requirements, from cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, operating cash flows and, if necessary, funds borrowed under our Credit Facility or other future financing arrangements. We remain focused on our liquidity and over the past several years have executed a number of transactions to significantly improve our financial position and manage our debt maturities.

Cash and Debt
As of June 30, 2018, we had $5.0 billion in total debt outstanding, representing approximately 37.2% of our total capitalization. We also had $740.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments and $2.0 billion of undrawn capacity under our Credit Facility.
In January 2018, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured 7.75% senior notes due 2026. Net proceeds of $983.5 million from the 2026 Notes were partially used to fund the repurchase and redemption of $237.6 million principal amount of our 8.50% senior notes due 2019, $328.0 million principal amount of our 6.875% senior notes due 2020 and $156.2 million principal amount of our 4.70% senior notes due 2021. During the first quarter, we recognized a pre-tax loss from debt extinguishment of $19.0 million, net of discounts, premiums, debt issuance costs and commissions.
Following the debt offering, repurchases and redemption, our only debt maturities until 2024 are $122.9 million during 2020 and $113.5 million during 2021.
Backlog
As of June 30, 2018, our backlog was $2.3 billion as compared to $2.8 billion as of December 31, 2017. Our backlog declined primarily due to revenues realized during the year, partially offset by new contract awards and contract extensions. As current contracts expire, we will likely experience further declines in backlog, which will result in a decline in revenues and operating cash flows over the near-term. Contract backlog was adjusted for drilling contracts signed or terminated after each respective balance sheet date but prior to filing our annual and quarterly reports on February 27, 2018 and July 26, 2018, respectively.
In July 2018, we executed a contract amendment for ENSCO DS-8, which primarily modified the scheduled cost escalations, bonus scheme and priced option, but did not change the day rate or primary term of the firm contracted period. Our operating results will not be significantly impacted as a result of the amendment.
BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
Floaters
The floater contracting environment continues to be challenged due to reduced demand, as well as excess newbuild supply. Floater demand has declined significantly in recent years due to lower commodity prices which have caused our customers to reduce capital expenditures, resulting in the cancellation and delay of drilling programs. During the past several quarters, we have observed increased activity that is translating into marginal improvements in near-term utilization; however, further improvements in demand and/or reductions in supply will be necessary before meaningful increases in utilization and day rates are realized.
During the first quarter, we extended the contract for ENSCO 8503 by two wells and executed one-well and two-well contracts for ENSCO 8505.
In April 2018, our customer terminated the contract for ENSCO 8504 due to force majure.
During the second quarter, we executed a 100-day contract for ENSCO 8503 that contains two one-well priced options. The contract is expected to commence in November 2018 in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. We also extended the contract for ENSCO DS-12 for approximately 45 days.
During the first quarter, we began marketing the ENSCO 5005 for sale and classified this rig as held-for-sale as of March 31, 2018. In April 2018, we sold ENSCO 7500 for scrap and recognized an insignificant pre-tax gain within loss from discontinued operations, net, in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. During the second
47

quarter, we began marketing for sale ENSCO 6001 and classified this rig as held-for-sale as of June 30, 2018. The rig was sold for scrap in July 2018, resulting in an insignificant pre-tax loss that will be recognized during the third quarter.
There are approximately 42 newbuild drillships and semisubmersible rigs reported to be under construction, of which approximately eight are scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2018. Nearly all newbuild floaters are uncontracted. Several newbuild deliveries have already been delayed into future years, and we expect that more uncontracted newbuilds will be delayed or cancelled.
Drilling contractors have retired approximately 111 floaters since the beginning of the downturn. Approximately 24 floaters older than 30 years of age are currently idle, approximately 16 additional floaters older than 30 years have contracts that will expire by year-end 2018 without follow-on work and a further 12 floaters between 15 and 30 years old have been idle for more than two years. Operating costs associated with keeping these rigs idle as well as expenditures required to re-certify these aging rigs may prove cost prohibitive. Drilling contractors will likely elect to scrap or cold-stack some or all of these rigs.
Jackups
Demand for jackups has improved with increased tendering activity observed in the past several quarters off historic lows; however, day rates remain depressed due to the oversupply of rigs.
During the first quarter, we executed a seven-well contract for ENSCO 72, a three-well extension and a one-well contract for ENSCO 101 and a one-well extension for ENSCO 121. We also executed two short-term contracts for ENSCO 68.
In April 2018, we executed three-year contracts with Saudi Aramco for ENSCO 140, ENSCO 141 and ENSCO 108 for drilling operations offshore Saudi Arabia. ENSCO 140 commenced drilling operations during July 2018, and we expect ENSCO 141 and ENSCO 108 to commence drilling operations during the third and fourth quarters of 2018, respectively.
Additionally, during the second quarter, we executed a ten-month contract for ENSCO 115 and short-term contracts and extensions for ENSCO 75, ENSCO 87, ENSCO 121 and ENSCO 122. The ENSCO 115 contact is expected to commence during the first quarter of 2019.
During the second quarter, we sold ENSCO 81 and ENSCO 82 and recognized an insignificant pre-tax gain in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. Additionally, we began marketing ENSCO 80 and classified this rig as held-for-sale as of June 30, 2018.
There are approximately 91 newbuild jackup rigs reported to be under construction, of which approximately 49 are scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2018. All newbuild jackups are uncontracted. Over the past year, some jackup orders have been cancelled, and many newbuild jackups have been delayed. We expect that additional rigs may be delayed or cancelled given limited contracting opportunities.
Drilling contractors have retired approximately 66 jackups since the beginning of the downturn. Approximately 108 jackups older than 30 years are idle and approximately 59 jackups that are 30 years or older have contracts expiring by the end of 2018 without follow-on work. Expenditures required to re-certify these aging rigs may prove cost prohibitive and drilling contractors may instead elect to scrap or cold-stack these rigs. We expect jackup scrapping and cold-stacking to continue during 2018 and into 2019.
Divestitures
Our business strategy has been to focus on ultra-deepwater floater and premium jackup operations and deemphasize other assets and operations that are not part of our long-term strategic plan or that no longer meet our standards for economic returns. Consistent with this strategy, we recently scrapped two floaters and two jackup rigs. Additionally, we are currently marketing for sale ENSCO 80 and ENSCO 5005, both of which are older, less capable assets, as part of our fleet high-grading strategy.
48

Following the Merger, we continue to focus on our fleet management strategy in light of the new composition of our rig fleet. As part of this strategy, we may act opportunistically from time to time to monetize assets to enhance shareholder value and improve our liquidity profile, in addition to selling or disposing of older, lower-specification or non-core rigs.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table summarizes our condensed consolidated results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 (in millions):

Net loss attributable to Ensco | $ | (151.0 | ) |  | $ | (45.5 | ) |  | $ | (291.1 | ) |  | $ | (71.2 | )

Revenues increased $1.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the addition of Atwood rigs to the fleet and the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 drilling operations during the first quarter of 2018, offset by lower average day rates across the fleet. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, revenues declined $53.1 million, or 6%, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to lower average day rates across the fleet which more than offset the increase from the addition of Atwood rigs and the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 drilling operations during the first quarter of 2018.
Contract drilling expense increased $53.0 million, or 18%, and $100.1 million, or 18%, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the prior periods, primarily due to the addition of Atwood rigs to the fleet, the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 drilling operations during the first quarter of 2018 and integration-related costs.
Depreciation expense increased $12.8 million, or 12%, and $18.8 million, or 9%, respectively, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the prior periods, primarily due to the addition of Atwood rigs to the fleet and the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 drilling operations. This increase was partially offset by lower depreciation expense on two non-core floaters and one non-core jackup that were impaired to scrap during the fourth quarter of 2017.
General and administrative expenses declined by $4.4 million, or 14%, and $2.5 million, or 4%, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, respectively, primarily due to lower Merger-related costs and accrued performance-based compensation.
49

Other expense, net, increased $31.6 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher debt balances and average interest rates resulting from the debt transactions we undertook during the first quarter of 2018, lower capitalized interest due to the decline in the amount of capital invested in newbuild construction and foreign currency losses. In addition, other expense, net, for the current period included measurement period adjustments related to the Merger resulting in a reduction to the bargain purchase gain.
Other expense, net, increased $44.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to higher interest expense resulting from the debt transactions we undertook during the first quarter of 2018, the pre-tax loss on debt extinguishment associated with those transactions, foreign currency losses and lower interest income. These declines were partially offset by measurement period adjustments related to the Merger resulting in additional bargain purchase gain.
Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net, included a $7.5 million discrete tax expense related to the sale of ENSCO 7500 in April 2018.
Rig Counts, Utilization and Average Day Rates
The following table summarizes our offshore drilling rigs by reportable segment, rigs under construction and rigs held-for-sale as of June 30, 2018 and 2017:

(1) | During the third quarter of 2017, we accepted delivery of ENSCO DS-10.

(2) | During the fourth quarter of 2017, we added ENSCO DS-11, ENSCO DS-12, ENSCO DPS-1 and ENSCO MS-1 from the Merger.

(3) | During the first quarter of 2018, we classified ENSCO 5005, ENSCO 81 and ENSCO 82 as held-for-sale. During the second quarter of 2018, we classified ENSCO 6001 and ENSCO 80 as held-for-sale.

(4) | During the fourth quarter of 2017, we added ENSCO 111, ENSCO 112, ENSCO 113, ENSCO 114 and ENSCO 115 from the Merger.

(5) | During the fourth quarter of 2017, we added ENSCO DS-13 and ENSCO DS-14 from the Merger, both of which are under construction.

The following table summarizes our rig utilization and average day rates by reportable segment for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2018 |  | 2017 |  | 2018 |  | 2017
Rig Utilization(1) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Floaters | 53 | % |  | 43 | % |  | 48 | % |  | 45 | %
Jackups | 66 | % |  | 64 | % |  | 63 | % |  | 64 | %
Total | 61 | % |  | 56 | % |  | 57 | % |  | 57 | %
Average Day Rates(2) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Floaters | $ | 237,513 |  |  | $ | 338,675 |  |  | $ | 248,576 |  |  | $ | 337,611 |

Total | $ | 135,343 |  |  | $ | 155,946 |  |  | $ | 133,988 |  |  | $ | 156,200 |

(1) | Rig utilization is derived by dividing the number of days under contract by the number of days in the period. Days under contract equals the total number of days that rigs have earned and recognized day rate revenue, including days associated with early contract terminations, compensated downtime and mobilizations. When revenue is earned but is deferred and amortized over a future period, for example, when a rig earns revenue while mobilizing to commence a new contract or while being upgraded in a shipyard, the related days are excluded from days under contract.

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

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

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

52

Floaters
Floater revenue increased $20.9 million, or 8%, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the addition of Atwood rigs to the fleet and the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 drilling operations during the first quarter of 2018. This increase was partially offset by lower average day rates across the fleet. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, floater revenues declined $4.9 million, or 1%, as compared to the prior year period, as lower average day rates across the fleet more than offset the addition of the Atwood rigs and the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 drilling operations.
Floater contract drilling expense increased $58.1 million, or 40%, and $96.8 million, or 33%, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the addition of Atwood rigs to the fleet and the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 drilling operations during the first quarter of 2018. The increase was partially offset by costs incurred in the prior year to settle a previously disclosed legal contingency and lower contract preparation costs in the current period.
Floater depreciation expense increased $8.8 million, or 12%, and 11.3 million, or 8%, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the addition of Atwood rigs and the commencement of depreciation on the ENSCO DS-10, partially offset by lower depreciation expense on two non-core floaters that were impaired to scrap during the fourth quarter of 2017.
Jackups
Jackup revenues declined $20.2 million, or 11%, and $48.6 million, or 14%, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, respectively, primarily due to lower average day rates, the sale of the ENSCO 52 and ENSCO 104 termination payments recognized during the prior year period. These declines were partially offset by the addition of Atwood rigs to the fleet.
Jackup contract drilling expense declined $5.5 million, or 4%, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to rigs that were undergoing shipyard projects during the prior period, the sale of ENSCO 52 and lower stacking costs on idle rigs, partially offset by the addition of Atwood rigs to the fleet.
Jackup contract drilling expense increased $2.8 million, or 1%, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the addition of Atwood rigs to the fleet and higher stacking costs, partially offset by the sale of ENSCO 52 and lower contract preparation costs in the current period.
Jackup depreciation expense for the three-month and six-month period ended June 30, 2018 increased $4.9 million, or 16%, and $9.3 million, or 15%, respectively, as compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the addition of Atwood rigs to the fleet.

Other Income (Expense)
The following table summarizes other income (expense) for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 (in millions):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2018 |  | 2017 |  | 2018 |  | 2017
Interest income | $ | 3.9 |  |  | $ | 7.6 |  |  | $ | 6.9 |  |  | $ | 14.8 |
Interest expense, net: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Interest expense | (86.9 | ) |  | (73.9 | ) |  | (170.9 | ) |  | (149.3 | )
Capitalized interest | 11.2 |  |  | 13.6 |  |  | 29.6 |  |  | 30.4 |
| (75.7 | ) |  | (60.3 | ) |  | (141.3 | ) |  | (118.9 | )

| $ | (84.8 | ) |  | $ | (53.2 | ) |  | $ | (155.5 | ) |  | $ | (110.9 | )

Interest income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 declined as compared to the prior year periods as a result of lower average short-term investment balances.
Interest expense for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 increased as compared to the prior year periods due to the higher debt balance and average interest rates resulting from the debt transactions we undertook during January 2018. Interest expense capitalized during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 declined as compared to the prior year periods due to a decline in the amount of capital invested in newbuild construction, resulting from the commencement of drilling operations on ENSCO DS-10.
Other expense, net, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 included foreign currency losses as discussed below and measurement period adjustments related to the Merger resulting in an $8.3 million decline in bargain purchase gain.
Other expense, net, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 included a pre-tax loss of $19.0 million related to the repurchase and redemption of senior notes in the first quarter of 2018 and foreign currency losses as discussed below. These losses were partially offset by measurement period adjustments related to the Merger resulting in $8.3 million of additional bargain purchase gain.
Other expense, net, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 included a pre-tax loss of $6.2 million related to the January 2017 debt exchange.
Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar, and a portion of the revenues earned and expenses incurred by certain of our subsidiaries are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. These transactions are remeasured in U.S. dollars based on a combination of both current and historical exchange rates. Net foreign currency exchange losses of $5.7 million and $12.0 million, inclusive of offsetting fair value derivatives, were included in other, net, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, respectively. These losses were primarily attributable to a strengthening U.S. dollar and the devaluation of the Angolan kwanza. Net foreign currency exchange losses of $2.4 million and $4.1 million, inclusive of offsetting fair value derivatives, were included in other, net, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

Provision for Income Taxes
Ensco plc, our parent company, is domiciled and resident in the U.K. Our subsidiaries conduct operations and earn income in numerous countries and are subject to the laws of taxing jurisdictions within those countries. The income of our non-U.K. subsidiaries is generally not subject to U.K. taxation. Income tax rates imposed in the tax jurisdictions in which our subsidiaries conduct operations vary, as does the tax base to which the rates are applied. In some cases, tax rates may be applicable to gross revenues, statutory or negotiated deemed profits or other bases utilized under local tax laws, rather than to net income.
Our drilling rigs frequently move from one taxing jurisdiction to another to perform contract drilling services. In some instances, the movement of our drilling rigs among taxing jurisdictions will involve the transfer of ownership of the drilling rigs among our subsidiaries. As a result of frequent changes in the taxing jurisdictions in which our drilling rigs are operated and/or owned, changes in the overall level of our income and changes in tax laws, our consolidated effective income tax rate may vary substantially from one reporting period to another. In periods of declining profitability, our income tax expense may not decline proportionally with income, which could result in higher effective income tax rates. Further, we may continue to incur income tax expense in periods in which we operate at a loss.
Discrete income tax benefit for the three-month period ended June 30, 2018 was $2.3 million and was primarily attributable to U.S. tax reform, partially offset by discrete tax expense related to rig sales and unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years. Discrete income tax expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 was $2.2 million and was primarily attributable to the debt exchange and repurchases we undertook during the first quarter of 2017 and a settlement of a previously disclosed legal contingency. Excluding the aforementioned discrete tax items, income tax expense for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $27.0 million and $17.1 million, respectively. The $9.9 million increase in income tax expense as compared to the prior year period was primarily due to U.S. tax reform and an increase in the relative components of our earnings, excluding discrete items, generated in tax jurisdictions with higher tax rates, partially offset by overall lower income levels.
Discrete income tax benefit for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 was $11.2 million and was primarily attributable to U.S. tax reform and a restructuring transaction, partially offset by discrete tax expense related to repurchase and redemption of senior notes, the effective settlement of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years and rig sales. Discrete income tax expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 was $9.8 million and was primarily attributable to the debt exchange and repurchases we undertook during the first quarter of 2017, a restructuring transaction, the effective settlement of a liability for unrecognized tax benefits associated with a tax position taken in prior years and a settlement of a previously disclosed legal contingency. Excluding the aforementioned discrete tax items, income tax expense for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $54.3 million and $33.6 million, respectively. The $20.7 million increase in income tax expense as compared to the prior year period was primarily due to U.S. tax reform and an increase in the relative components of our earnings, excluding discrete items, generated in tax jurisdictions with higher tax rates, partially offset by overall lower income levels.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We have historically relied on our cash flow from continuing operations to meet liquidity needs and fund the majority of our cash requirements. We periodically rely on the issuance of debt and/or equity securities to supplement our liquidity needs. A substantial portion of our cash has been invested in the expansion and enhancement of our fleet of drilling rigs through newbuild construction, acquisitions and upgrade projects. We expect that cash flow generated from operations during 2018 will primarily be used to fund capital expenditures and repurchase debt.
Based on our balance sheet, our contractual backlog and $2.0 billion available under our Credit Facility, we expect to fund our short-term and long-term liquidity needs, including contractual obligations and anticipated capital expenditures, as well as working capital requirements, from cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments,
55

operating cash flows and, if necessary, funds borrowed under our Credit Facility or other future financing arrangements. We remain focused on our liquidity and over the past several years have executed a number of transactions to significantly improve our financial position and manage our debt maturities.
In January 2018, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured 7.75% senior notes due 2026. Net proceeds of $983.5 million from the 2026 Notes were partially used to fund the repurchase and redemption of $237.6 million principal amount of our 8.50% senior notes due 2019, $328.0 million principal amount of our 6.875% senior notes due 2020 and $156.2 million principal amount of our 4.70% senior notes due 2021.
Our Board of Directors declared a $0.01 quarterly cash dividend during the second quarter. Our Credit Facility prohibits us from paying dividends in excess of $0.01 per share per fiscal quarter. Dividends in excess of this amount would require the amendment or waiver of such provisions. The declaration and amount of future dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors. In the future, our Board of Directors may, without advance notice, determine to suspend our dividend in order to maintain our financial flexibility and best position us for long-term success.
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, our primary source of cash was $1.0 billion in proceeds from the issuance of senior notes and $185.0 million in net maturities of short-term investments. Our primary uses of cash for the same period were $771.2 million for the repurchase and redemption of outstanding debt and $331.9 million for the construction, enhancement and other improvements of our drilling rigs.
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2017, our primary source of cash was $130.5 million generated from operating activities of continuing operations. Our primary uses of cash for the same period were $537.0 million for debt repurchases, $332.6 million for the construction, enhancement and other improvements of our drilling rigs and net purchases of short-term investments of $237.8 million.
Cash Flow and Capital Expenditures
Our cash flow from operating activities of continuing operations and capital expenditures for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows (in millions):

| 2018 |  | 2017
Cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations | $ | (18.0 | ) |  | $ | 130.5 |
Capital expenditures |  |  |  |  |
New rig construction | $ | 277.7 |  |  | $ | 286.6 |
Rig enhancements | 26.5 |  |  | 15.5 |
Minor upgrades and improvements | 27.7 |  |  | 30.5 |
| $ | 331.9 |  |  | $ | 332.6 |

Cash flows from operating activities of continuing operations declined $148.5 million as compared to the prior year period due primarily to declining margins. As challenging industry conditions persist and our remaining above-market, older contracts expire and utilization increases with the execution of new market-rate contracts, our operating cash flows are expected to continue to decline over the near-term.
We currently have one premium jackup rig under construction, ENSCO 123. In January 2018, we made a milestone payment of $207.4 million which was invoiced and included in accounts payable - trade as of December 31, 2017 on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. We have two ultra-deepwater drillships under construction, ENSCO DS-13 and ENSCO DS-14, which are scheduled for delivery in September 2019 and June 2020, respectively, or such earlier date that we elect to take delivery with 45 days' notice. In June 2018, we paid an interim milestone payment of $15.0 million on ENSCO DS-14.
56

The following table summarizes the cumulative amount of contractual payments made as of June 30, 2018 for our rigs under construction and estimated timing of our remaining contractual payments (in millions):

|  | Cumulative Paid(1) |  | Remaining 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2020 |  | Total(2)
ENSCO 123 |  | $ | 275.8 |  |  | $ | 2.0 |  |  | $ | 7.6 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 285.4 |
ENSCO DS-13(3) |  | — |  |  | — |  |  | 83.9 |  |  | — |  |  | 83.9 |
ENSCO DS-14(3) |  | 15.0 |  |  | — |  |  | — |  |  | 165.0 |  |  | 180.0 |
|  | $ | 290.8 |  |  | $ | 2.0 |  |  | $ | 91.5 |  |  | $ | 165.0 |  |  | $ | 549.3 |

(1) | Cumulative paid represents the aggregate amount of contractual payments made from commencement of the construction agreement through June 30, 2018. Contractual payments made by Atwood prior to the Merger for ENSCO DS-13 and ENSCO DS-14 are excluded.

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

(3) | The remaining milestone payments for ENSCO DS-13 and ENSCO DS-14 bear interest at a rate of 4.5% per annum, which accrues during the holding period until delivery. Delivery is scheduled for September 2019 and June 2020 for ENSCO DS-13 and ENSCO DS-14, respectively. Upon delivery, the remaining milestone payments and accrued interest thereon may be financed through a promissory note with the shipyard for each rig. The promissory notes will bear interest at a rate of 5% per annum with a maturity date of December 30, 2022 and will be secured by a mortgage on each respective rig. The remaining milestone payments for ENSCO DS-13 and ENSCO DS-14 are included in the table above in the period in which we expect to take delivery of the rig. However, we may elect to execute the promissory notes and defer payment until December 2022.

The actual timing of these expenditures may vary based on the completion of various construction milestones, which are, to a large extent, beyond our control.
Based on our current projections, we expect capital expenditures during 2018 to include approximately $360.0 million for newbuild construction, approximately $55.0 million for rig enhancement projects and approximately $60.0 million for minor upgrades and improvements. Depending on market conditions and future opportunities, we may make additional capital expenditures to upgrade rigs for customer requirements and construct or acquire additional rigs.
Financing and Capital Resources
Senior Notes
On January 26, 2018, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured 7.75% senior notes due 2026 at par. Interest on the 2026 Notes is payable semiannually on February 1 and August 1 of each year commencing August 1, 2018.
Tender Offers and Redemption
Concurrent with the issuance of the 2026 Notes in January 2018, we launched cash tender offers for up to $985.0 million aggregate principal amount on certain series of our senior notes issued by us and Pride, our wholly-owned subsidiary. The tender offers expired February 7, 2018, and we repurchased $182.6 million of our 8.50% senior notes due 2019, $256.6 million of our 6.875% senior notes due 2020 and $156.2 million of our 4.70% senior notes due 2021. Subsequently, we issued a redemption notice for the remaining outstanding $55.0 million principal amount of the 8.50% senior notes due 2019 and repurchased $71.4 million principal amount of our senior notes due 2020.
57

The following table sets forth the total principal amounts repurchased as a result of the tender offers, redemption and repurchase (in millions):

|  | Aggregate Principal Amount Repurchased |  | Aggregate Repurchase Price(1)
8.50% Senior notes due 2019 |  | $ | 237.6 |  |  | $ | 256.8 |
6.875% Senior notes due 2020 |  | 328.0 |  |  | 354.7 |
4.70% Senior notes due 2021 |  | 156.2 |  |  | 159.7 |
Total |  | $ | 721.8 |  |  | $ | 771.2 |

(1) | Excludes accrued interest paid to holders of the repurchased senior notes.

During the first quarter of 2018, we recognized a pre-tax loss from debt extinguishment of $19.0 million, net of discounts, premiums, debt issuance costs and commissions.
Maturities
Following the January 2018 debt offering, repurchases and redemption, our only debt maturities until 2024 are $122.9 million during 2020 and $113.5 million during 2021.
Debt to Capital
Our total debt, total capital and total debt to total capital ratios are summarized below (in millions, except percentages):

| June 30, 2018 |  | December 31, 2017
Total debt | $ | 4,994.9 |  |  | $ | 4,750.7 |
Total capital (1) | $ | 13,431.1 |  |  | $ | 13,482.8 |
Total debt to total capital | 37.2 | % |  | 35.2 | %

(1) Total capital consists of total debt and Ensco shareholders' equity.
Revolving Credit Facility
We have a $2.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks to be used for general corporate purposes. Our borrowing capacity is $2.0 billion through September 2019 and declines to $1.3 billion through September 2020 and to $1.2 billion through September 2022. The credit agreement governing the Credit Facility includes an accordion feature allowing us to increase the commitments expiring in September 2022 up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $1.5 billion.
Advances under the Credit Facility bear interest at Base Rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin rate, depending on our credit ratings. We are required to pay a quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the $2.0 billion commitment, which is also based on our credit rating.
In January 2018, Moody's downgraded our senior unsecured bond credit rating from B2 to B3. The rating actions resulted in an increase to the interest rates applicable to our borrowings and the quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the $2.0 billion commitment. The applicable margin rates are 3.00% per annum for Base Rate advances and 4.00% per annum for LIBOR advances. The quarterly commitment fee is 0.75% per annum on the undrawn portion of the $2.0 billion commitment.
58

The Credit Facility requires us to maintain a total debt to total capitalization ratio that is less than or equal to 60% and to provide guarantees from certain of our rig-owning subsidiaries sufficient to meet certain guarantee coverage ratios. The Credit Facility also contains customary restrictive covenants, including, among others, prohibitions on creating, incurring or assuming certain debt and liens (subject to customary exceptions, including a permitted lien basket that permits us to raise secured debt up to the lesser of $750 million or 10% of consolidated tangible net worth (as defined in the Credit Facility)); entering into certain merger arrangements; selling, leasing, transferring or otherwise disposing of all or substantially all of our assets; making a material change in the nature of the business; paying or distributing dividends on our ordinary shares (subject to certain exceptions, including the ability to continue paying a quarterly dividend of $0.01 per share); borrowings, if after giving effect to such borrowings and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate amount of available cash (as defined in the Credit Facility) would exceed $150 million; and entering into certain transactions with affiliates.
The Credit Facility also includes a covenant restricting our ability to repay indebtedness maturing after September 2022, which is the final maturity date of the Credit Facility. This covenant is subject to certain exceptions that permit us to manage our balance sheet, including the ability to make repayments of indebtedness (i) of acquired companies within 90 days of the completion of the acquisition or (ii) if, after giving effect to such repayments, available cash is greater than $250 million and there are no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility.
As of June 30, 2018, we were in compliance in all material respects with our covenants under the Credit Facility. We had no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Our access to credit and capital markets depends on the credit ratings assigned to our debt, and we do not maintain an investment-grade status. Our current credit ratings, and any additional actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings, could limit our available options when accessing credit and capital markets, or when restructuring or refinancing our debt. In addition, future financings or refinancings may result in higher borrowing costs and require more restrictive terms and covenants, which may further restrict our operations.
Other Financing
We filed an automatically effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC on November 21, 2017, which provides us the ability to issue debt securities, equity securities, guarantees and/or units of securities in one or more offerings. The registration statement expires in November 2020.
Our shareholders approved a new share repurchase program at our annual shareholder meeting held in May 2018. Subject to certain provisions under English law, including the requirement of Ensco plc to have sufficient distributable reserves, we may repurchase shares up to a maximum of $500.0 million in the aggregate from one or more financial intermediaries under the program, but in no case more than 65.0 million shares. The program terminates in May 2023. Our prior share repurchase program approved by our shareholders in 2013, under which we could repurchase up to a maximum of $2.0 billion in the aggregate, not to exceed 35.0 million shares, terminated in May 2018.
From time to time, we and our affiliates may repurchase our outstanding senior notes in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, through tender offers, exchange offers or otherwise, or we may redeem senior notes that are able to be redeemed, pursuant to their terms. In connection with any exchange, we may issue equity, issue new debt and/or pay cash consideration. Any future repurchases, exchanges or redemptions will depend on various factors existing at that time. There can be no assurance as to which, if any, of these alternatives (or combinations thereof) we may choose to pursue in the future. There can be no assurance that an active trading market will exist for our outstanding senior notes following any such transactions.
59

Other Commitments
As of June 30, 2018, we were contingently liable for an aggregate amount of $125.4 million under outstanding letters of credit and surety bonds which guarantee our performance as it relates to our drilling contracts, contract bidding, customs duties, tax appeals and other obligations in various jurisdictions. Obligations under these letters of credit and surety bonds are not normally called, as we typically comply with the underlying performance requirement. As of June 30, 2018, we had not been required to make any collateral deposits with respect to these agreements.
Liquidity
Our liquidity position is summarized in the table below (in millions, except ratios):

| June 30, 2018 |  | December 31, 2017
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 485.5 |  |  | $ | 445.4 |
Short-term investments | $ | 255.0 |  |  | $ | 440.0 |
Working capital | $ | 913.0 |  |  | $ | 853.5 |
Current ratio | 2.7 |  |  | 2.1 |

We expect to fund our short-term liquidity needs, including contractual obligations and anticipated capital expenditures, as well as working capital requirements, from our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, operating cash flows, and, if necessary, funds borrowed under the Credit Facility.
We expect to fund our long-term liquidity needs, including contractual obligations and anticipated capital expenditures from our operating cash flows and, if necessary, funds borrowed under the Credit Facility or other future financing arrangements.
We may decide to access debt and/or equity markets to raise additional capital or increase liquidity as necessary.
MARKET RISK
We use derivatives to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk. Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar. As is customary in the oil and gas industry, a majority of our revenues and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars; however, a portion of the revenues earned and expenses incurred by certain of our subsidiaries are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We maintain a foreign currency exchange rate risk management strategy that utilizes derivatives to reduce our exposure to unanticipated fluctuations in earnings and cash flows caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
We utilize cash flow hedges to hedge forecasted foreign currency denominated transactions, primarily to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk on future expected contract drilling expenses and capital expenditures denominated in various foreign currencies. We predominantly structure our drilling contracts in U.S. dollars, which significantly reduces the portion of our cash flows and assets denominated in foreign currencies. As of June 30, 2018, we had cash flow hedges outstanding to exchange an aggregate $212.1 million for various foreign currencies.
We have net assets and liabilities denominated in numerous foreign currencies and use various strategies to manage our exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We occasionally enter into derivatives that hedge the fair value of recognized foreign currency denominated assets or liabilities, thereby reducing exposure to earnings fluctuations caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We do not designate such derivatives as hedging instruments. In these situations, a natural hedging relationship generally exists whereby changes in the fair value of the derivatives offset changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged items. As of June 30, 2018, we held derivatives not designated as hedging instruments to exchange an aggregate $153.2 million for various foreign currencies.
60

If we were to incur a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates, net unrealized losses associated with our foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2018 would approximate $17.9 million. Approximately $13.0 million of these unrealized losses would be offset by corresponding gains on the derivatives utilized to offset changes in the fair value of net assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.
We utilize derivatives and undertake foreign currency exchange rate hedging activities in accordance with our established policies for the management of market risk. We mitigate our credit risk related to derivative counterparties through a variety of techniques, including transacting with multiple, high-quality financial institutions, thereby limiting our exposure to individual counterparties and by entering into ISDA Master Agreements, which include provisions for a legally enforceable master netting agreement, with almost all of our derivative counterparties. The terms of the ISDA agreements may also include credit support requirements, cross default provisions, termination events or set-off provisions. Legally enforceable master netting agreements reduce credit risk by providing protection in bankruptcy in certain circumstances and generally permitting the closeout and netting of transactions with the same counterparty upon the occurrence of certain events.
We do not enter into derivatives for trading or other speculative purposes. We believe that our use of derivatives and related hedging activities reduces our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk and does not expose us to material credit risk or any other material market risk. All of our derivatives mature during the next 18 months. See Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in "Item 1. Financial Information" for additional information on our derivative instruments.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our significant accounting policies are included in Note 1 to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2018. These policies, along with our underlying judgments and assumptions made in their application, have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
We identify our critical accounting policies as those that are the most pervasive and important to the portrayal of our financial position and operating results and that require the most difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments by management regarding estimates in matters that are inherently uncertain. Our critical accounting policies are those related to property and equipment, impairment of long-lived assets and income taxes. For a discussion of the critical accounting policies and estimates that we use in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, see "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" in Part II of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
New Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in "Item 1. Financial Statements" for information on new accounting pronouncements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Information required under Item 3. has been incorporated into "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Market Risk."
61

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, are effective.
During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2018, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Brazil Internal Investigation
Pride International LLC, formerly Pride International, Inc., a company we acquired in 2011, commenced drilling operations in Brazil in 2001. In 2008, Pride entered into a drilling services agreement with Petrobras (the "DSA") for ENSCO DS-5, a drillship ordered from Samsung Heavy Industries, a shipyard in South Korea ("SHI"). Beginning in 2006, Pride conducted periodic compliance reviews of its business with Petrobras, and, after the acquisition of Pride, Ensco conducted similar compliance reviews.
We commenced a compliance review in early 2015 after the release of media reports regarding ongoing investigations of various kickback and bribery schemes in Brazil involving Petrobras. While conducting our compliance review, we became aware of an internal audit report by Petrobras alleging irregularities in relation to the DSA. Upon learning of the Petrobras internal audit report, our Audit Committee appointed independent counsel to lead an investigation into the alleged irregularities. Further, in June and July 2015, we voluntarily contacted the SEC and the DOJ, respectively, to advise them of this matter and of our Audit Committee’s investigation. Independent counsel, under the direction of our Audit Committee, has substantially completed its investigation by reviewing and analyzing available documents and correspondence and interviewing current and former employees involved in the DSA negotiations and the negotiation of the ENSCO DS-5 construction contract with SHI (the "DS-5 Construction Contract").
To date, our Audit Committee has found no credible evidence that Pride or Ensco or any of their current or former employees were aware of or involved in any wrongdoing, and our Audit Committee has found no credible evidence linking Ensco or Pride to any illegal acts committed by our former marketing consultant who provided services to Pride and Ensco in connection with the DSA. We, through independent counsel, have continued to cooperate with the SEC and DOJ, including providing detailed briefings regarding our investigation and findings and responding to inquiries as they arise. We entered into a one-year tolling agreement with the DOJ that expired in December 2016. Our tolling agreement with the SEC expired in June 2018.
Subsequent to initiating our Audit Committee investigation, Brazilian court documents connected to the prosecution of former Petrobras directors and employees as well as certain other third parties, including our former marketing consultant, referenced the alleged irregularities cited in the Petrobras internal audit report. Our former marketing consultant has entered into a plea agreement with the Brazilian authorities. On January 10, 2016, Brazilian authorities filed an indictment against a former Petrobras director. This indictment states that the former Petrobras director received bribes paid out of proceeds from a brokerage agreement entered into for purposes of intermediating a drillship construction contract between SHI and Pride, which we believe to be the DS-5 Construction Contract. The parties to the brokerage agreement were a company affiliated with a person acting on behalf of the former Petrobras director, a company affiliated with our former marketing consultant, and SHI. The indictment alleges that amounts paid by SHI under the brokerage agreement ultimately were used to pay bribes to the former Petrobras director. The indictment does not state that Pride or Ensco or any of their current or former employees were involved in the bribery scheme or had any knowledge of the bribery scheme.
On January 4, 2016, we received a notice from Petrobras declaring the DSA void effective immediately. Petrobras’ notice alleges that our former marketing consultant both received and procured improper payments from SHI for employees of Petrobras and that Pride had knowledge of this activity and assisted in the procurement of and/or facilitated these improper payments. We disagree with Petrobras’ allegations. See "DSA Dispute" below for additional information.
In August 2017, one of our Brazilian subsidiaries was contacted by the Office of the Attorney General for the Brazilian state of Paraná in connection with a criminal investigation procedure initiated against agents of both SHI
63

and Pride in relation to the DSA. The Brazilian authorities requested information regarding our compliance program and the findings of our internal investigations. We cooperated with the Office of the Attorney General and provided documents in response to its request. We cannot predict the scope or ultimate outcome of this procedure or whether any other governmental authority will open an investigation into Pride’s involvement in this matter, or if a proceeding were opened, the scope or ultimate outcome of any such investigation. If the SEC or DOJ determines that violations of the FCPA have occurred, or if any governmental authority determines that we have violated applicable anti-bribery laws, they could seek civil and criminal sanctions, including monetary penalties, against us, as well as changes to our business practices and compliance programs, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. Our customers, business partners and other stakeholders could seek to take actions adverse to our interests. Further, investigating and resolving such allegations is expensive and could consume significant management time and attention. Although our internal investigation is substantially complete, we cannot predict whether any additional allegations will be made or whether any additional facts relevant to the investigation will be uncovered during the course of the investigation and what impact those allegations and additional facts will have on the timing or conclusions of the investigation. Our Audit Committee will examine any such additional allegations and additional facts and the circumstances surrounding them.
DSA Dispute
As described above, on January 4, 2016, Petrobras sent a notice to us declaring the DSA void effective immediately, reserving its rights and stating its intention to seek any restitution to which it may be entitled. We disagree with Petrobras’ declaration that the DSA is void. We believe that Petrobras repudiated the DSA and has therefore accepted the DSA as terminated on April 8, 2016. At this time, we cannot reasonably determine the validity of Petrobras' claim or the range of our potential exposure, if any. As a result, there can be no assurance as to how this dispute will ultimately be resolved.
We did not recognize revenue for amounts owed to us under the DSA from the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2015 through the Termination Date as we concluded that collectability of these amounts was not reasonably assured. Additionally, our receivables from Petrobras related to the DSA from prior to the fourth quarter of 2015 are fully reserved in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018. In August 2016, we initiated arbitration proceedings in the U.K. against Petrobras seeking payment of all amounts owed to us under the DSA, in addition to any other amounts to which we are entitled, and intend to vigorously pursue our claims. Petrobras subsequently filed a counterclaim seeking restitution of certain sums paid under the DSA less value received by Petrobras under the DSA. The arbitral hearing on liability was held in March 2018, and we are awaiting the tribunal's decision. There can be no assurance as to how this arbitration proceeding will ultimately be resolved.
In November 2016, we initiated separate arbitration proceedings in the U.K. against SHI for any losses we incur in connection with the foregoing Petrobras arbitration. SHI subsequently filed a statement of defense disputing our claim. In January 2018, the arbitration tribunal for the SHI matter issued an award on liability fully in Ensco’s favor. SHI is liable to us for $10 million or damages that we can prove. As the losses suffered by us will depend in part on the outcome of the Petrobras arbitration described above, the amount of damages to be paid by SHI will be determined after the conclusion of the Petrobras arbitration. We are unable to estimate the ultimate outcome of recovery for damages at this time.

During 2010, Pride and its subsidiaries resolved their previously disclosed investigations into potential violations of the FCPA with the DOJ and SEC. The settlement with the DOJ included a deferred prosecution agreement (the "DPA") between Pride and the DOJ and a guilty plea by Pride Forasol S.A.S., one of Pride’s subsidiaries, to FCPA-related charges. During 2012, the DOJ moved to (i) dismiss the charges against Pride and end the DPA one year prior to its scheduled expiration; and (ii) terminate the unsupervised probation of Pride Forasol S.A.S. The Court granted the motions.
Pride has received preliminary inquiries from governmental authorities of certain countries referenced in its settlements with the DOJ and SEC. We could face additional fines, sanctions and other penalties from authorities in these and other relevant jurisdictions, including prohibition of our participating in or curtailment of business operations in certain jurisdictions and the seizure of rigs or other assets. At this stage of such inquiries, we are unable to determine what, if any, legal liability may result. Our customers in certain jurisdictions could seek to impose penalties or take other actions adverse to our business. We could also face other third-party claims by directors, officers, employees, affiliates, advisors, attorneys, agents, stockholders, debt holders or other stakeholders. In addition, disclosure of the subject matter of the investigations and settlements could adversely affect our reputation and our ability to obtain new business or retain existing business, to attract and retain employees and to access the capital markets.
We cannot currently predict what, if any, actions may be taken by any other applicable government or other authorities or our customers or other third parties or the effect any such actions may have on our financial position, operating results and cash flows.
Environmental Matters
We are currently subject to pending notices of assessment relating to spills of drilling fluids, oil, brine, chemicals, grease or fuel from drilling rigs operating offshore Brazil from 2008 to 2017, pursuant to which the governmental authorities have assessed, or are anticipated to assess, fines. We have contested these notices and appealed certain adverse decisions and are awaiting decisions in these cases. Although we do not expect final disposition of these assessments to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results and cash flows, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of these assessments. A $180,000 liability related to these matters was included in accrued liabilities and other in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018.
We currently are subject to a pending administrative proceeding initiated during 2009 by a Spanish government authority seeking payment in an aggregate amount of approximately $3.0 million, for an alleged environmental spill originating from ENSCO 5006 while it was operating offshore Spain. Our customer has posted guarantees with the Spanish government to cover potential penalties. Additionally, we expect to be indemnified for any payments resulting from this incident by our customer under the terms of the drilling contract. A criminal investigation of the incident was initiated during 2010 by a prosecutor in Tarragona, Spain, and the administrative proceedings have been suspended pending the outcome of this investigation. We do not know at this time what, if any, involvement we may have in this investigation.
We intend to vigorously defend ourselves in the administrative proceeding and any criminal investigation. At this time, we are unable to predict the outcome of these matters or estimate the extent to which we may be exposed to any resulting liability. Although we do not expect final disposition of this matter to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results and cash flows, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of the proceedings.

Other Matters
In addition to the foregoing, we are named defendants or parties in certain other lawsuits, claims or proceedings incidental to our business and are involved from time to time as parties to governmental investigations or proceedings, including matters related to taxation, arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and the amount of any liability that could arise with respect to such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted accurately, we do not expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There are numerous factors that affect our business and results of operations, many of which are beyond our control. In addition to information set forth in this quarterly report, you should carefully read and consider "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in Part I and "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, which contains descriptions of significant risks that may cause our actual results of operations in future periods to differ materially from those currently anticipated or expected.
