• | 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;

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1.Financial Statements
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Ensco Rowan plc:
Results of Review of Interim Financial Information
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Ensco Rowan plc and subsidiaries
(the Company, formerly known as Ensco plc) as of March 31, 2019, and the related condensed consolidated
statements of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, 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, 2018,
and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, and cash flows for the year then
ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 28, 2019, 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, 2018, 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.

ENSCO ROWAN PLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 -Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
We prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Ensco Rowan plc and subsidiaries (the "Company," "EnscoRowan," "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, 2018 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from our 2018 audited consolidated financial statements, but does 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 quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 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 quarter ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will be realized for the year ending December 31, 2019. 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, 2018, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019. On April 11, 2019, we completed our combination with Rowan Companies plc and effected a four-to-one share consolidation (being a reverse stock under English law). See "Note 3 - Rowan Transaction" and "Note 14 - Subsequent Events" for additional information.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently adopted accounting standards
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 makes more hedging strategies eligible for hedge accounting, amends presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness, including the elimination of separate measurement and recognition of ineffectiveness on designated hedging instruments. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We adopted Updated 2017-12 effective January 1, 2019. As a result, beginning on the effective date, we will no longer separately measure and recognize ineffectiveness on our designated cash flow hedges. Update 2017-02 requires a modified retrospective adoption approach whereby amounts previously recorded to earnings for hedge ineffectiveness on hedging relationships that exist as of the adoption date are recorded as a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings. As of our adoption date, we had no amounts previously recorded for ineffectiveness for hedging relationships that existed as of our adoption date and therefore no cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings was recorded.
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 July 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2018-11,
8

Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements, which (1) provides for a new transition method whereby entities may elect to adopt the Update using a prospective with cumulative catch-up approach (the "effective date method") and (2) provides lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate lease and non-lease components and account for the combined component under Topic 606 when the non-lease component is the predominant element of the combined component. The lessor practical expedient is limited to circumstances in which the lease, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease under Topic 842. We adopted ASU 2016-02, effective January 1, 2019, using the effective date method.
With respect to our drilling contracts, which contain a lease component, we elected to apply the practical expedient to not separate the lease and non-lease components and account for the combined component under Topic 606. With respect to all of our drilling contracts that existed on the adoption date, we concluded that the criteria to elect the lessor practical expedient had been met. As a result, we will continue to recognize the revenue associated with our drilling contracts under Topic 606. Therefore, we do not expect any change in our revenue recognition patterns or disclosures as a result of our adoption of Topic 842.
With respect to leases whereby we are the lessee, we elected several practical expedients afforded under Topic 842. We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance of Topic 842, including the hindsight practical expedient which permits entities to use hindsight in determining the lease term and assessing impairment. We also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease components from non-lease components for all asset classes, with the exception of office space. Furthermore, we also elected the practical expedient that permits entities not to apply the recognition requirements for leases with a term of 12 months or less. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, we recognized lease liabilities and right-of-use assets of $64.6 million and $53.7 million, respectively. See "Note 10 - Leases" for additional information.
Note 2 -Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Our drilling contracts with customers provide a drilling rig and 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 March 31, 2019 was between approximately one month and four years.
9

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 or other time increment basis. Day rate consideration is allocated to the distinct hourly or other time 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 billed to our customers on a monthly basis and payment terms on customer invoices typically range 30 - 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 or other 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 whereby 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 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 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.
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.

Deferred Contract Costs
Costs incurred for upfront rig mobilizations and certain contract preparation 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 $26.6 million and $23.5 million as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, amortization of such costs totaled $6.4 million and $6.8 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 $13.4 million and $13.6 million as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, amortization of such costs totaled $2.8 million and $3.1 million, respectively.

Note 3 -Rowan Transaction
On October 7, 2018, we entered into a transaction agreement ("the Transaction Agreement") with Rowan Companies plc ("Rowan"). On April 11, 2019 (the "Transaction Date"), we completed our combination with Rowan pursuant to the Transaction Agreement (the "Rowan Transaction"). On the Transaction Date, we changed our name to Ensco Rowan plc. Rowan's financial results will be included in our consolidated results beginning on the Transaction Date.
Prior to the Rowan Transaction, Rowan and Saudi Aramco formed a 50/50 joint venture to own, manage and operate drilling rigs offshore Saudi Arabia ("Saudi Aramco Rowan Offshore Drilling Company" or "ARO"). ARO currently owns a fleet of seven jackup rigs, leases another nine jackup rigs from us and has plans to order up to 20 newbuild jackup rigs over the next 10 years.
The Rowan Transaction is expected to enhance the market leadership of the combined company with a fleet of high-specification floaters and jackups and position us well to meet increasing and evolving customer demand. The increased scale, diversification and financial strength of the combined company will provide us advantages to better serve our customers. Exclusive of two older jackup rigs marked for retirement, Rowan’s offshore rig fleet consists of four ultra-deepwater drillships and 19 jackup rigs.
Consideration
As a result of the Rowan Transaction, Rowan shareholders received 2.750 Ensco Class A Ordinary shares for each Rowan Class A ordinary share, representing a value of $43.67 per Rowan share based on a closing price of $15.88 per Ensco share on April 10, 2019, the last trading day before the Transaction Date. Total consideration delivered in the Rowan Transaction consisted of 88.3 million Ensco shares with an aggregate value of $1.4 billion, inclusive of $2.6 million for the estimated fair value of replacement employee equity awards. All share and per share data included in this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split discussed in "Note 14 - Subsequent Events".
Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed
Under U.S. GAAP, Ensco plc is considered to be the acquirer for accounting purposes. As a result, Rowan's assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Rowan Transaction will be recorded at their estimated fair values as of the Transaction 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. We have not finalized the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed; therefore, the fair value estimates set forth below are subject to adjustment during a one year measurement period subsequent to the Transaction Date. The estimated fair values of certain assets and liabilities including materials and supplies, long-lived assets and contingencies require judgments and assumptions that increase the likelihood that adjustments may be made to these estimates during the measurement period, and those adjustments could be material.
12

The provisional amounts for assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on preliminary estimates of their fair values as of the Transaction Date and are as follows (in millions):

| Estimated Fair Value
Assets: |
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 928.9 |
Accounts receivable(1) | 199.1 |
Other current assets | 200.0 |
Long-term notes receivable from ARO | 454.5 |
Investment in ARO | 152.3 |
Property and equipment | 2,755.3 |
Other assets | 184.4 |
Liabilities: |  |
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities | 252.1 |
Current portion of long-term debt | 181.2 |
Long-term debt | 1,910.9 |
Other liabilities | 372.0 |
Net assets acquired | 2,158.3 |
Less: Transaction consideration | (1,404.6 | )
Bargain purchase gain | $ | 753.7 |

(1) | Gross contractual amounts receivable totaled $201.1 million as of the Transaction Date.

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 driven by the decline in our share price from $33.92 to $15.88 between the last trading day prior to the announcement of the Rowan Transaction and the Transaction Date. The estimated gain will be reflected in other, net, in our condensed consolidated statement of operations during the second quarter.
Transaction-Related Costs
Transaction-related costs were expensed as incurred and consisted of various advisory, legal, accounting, valuation and other professional or consulting fees totaling $5.9 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2019. These costs were included in general and administrative expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Upon closing of the Rowan Transaction, we incurred additional transaction-related costs of $14.2 million.
Pro Forma Impact of the Rowan Transaction
The following unaudited supplemental pro forma results present consolidated information as if the Rowan Transaction was completed on January 1, 2018. The pro forma results include, among others, (i) the amortization associated with acquired intangible assets and liabilities (ii) a reduction in depreciation expense for adjustments to property and equipment (iii) the amortization of premiums and discounts recorded on Rowan's debt (iv) removal of the historical amortization of unrealized gains and losses related to Rowan's pension plans and (v) the amortization of basis differences in assets and liabilities of ARO. The pro forma results do not include any potential synergies or non-recurring charges that may result directly from the Rowan Transaction.

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 were 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.

(1) | 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 $836.9 million as of March 31, 2019.

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 March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. 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. The estimated fair values of our senior notes and debentures were determined using quoted market prices.
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 of our 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 the fair value of derivatives depends on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. Net liabilities of $6.9 million and $10.7 million associated with our derivatives were included on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. All of our derivatives mature during the next 18 months. See "Note 4 - Fair Value Measurements" for additional information on the fair value measurement of our derivatives.

(1) | Derivative assets and liabilities that have 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 that have 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 March 31, 2019, we had cash flow hedges outstanding to exchange an aggregate $169.6 million for various foreign currencies, including $88.3 million for British pounds, $39.8 million for Australian dollars, $21.5 million for euros, $12.9 million for Brazilian reals and $7.1 million for other currencies.
Gains and losses, net of tax, on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows (in millions):

| Gain Recognized in Other Comprehensive Income ("OCI") (Effective Portion) |  | (Gain) Loss Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI") into Income (Effective Portion)(1) |  | Loss Recognized in Income on Derivatives (Ineffective Portion and Amount Excluded from Effectiveness Testing)(2)

Total | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1.9 |  |  | $ | 1.6 |  |  | $ | (2.2 | ) |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | (.2 | )

(1) | Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges 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.

16

(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. As a result of our adoption of Update 2017-12, which we adopted effective January 1, 2019, ineffectiveness is no longer separately measured and recognized. See additional information in "Note 1 - Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements".

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

(4) | During the first quarter of 2019, $1.7 million of losses were reclassified from AOCI into contract drilling expense and $0.2 million of gains were reclassified from AOCI into depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. During the prior year quarter, $2.1 million of gains were reclassified from AOCI into contract drilling expense and $0.2 million of gains were reclassified from AOCI into depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

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 March 31, 2019, we held derivatives not designated as hedging instruments to exchange an aggregate $191.8 million for various foreign currencies, including $84.3 million for euros, $31.7 million for Australian dollars, $18.5 million for Qatari riyals, $13.2 million for British pounds, $10.1 million for Indonesian rupiahs and $34.0 million for other currencies.
Net losses of $3.1 million and net gains of $1.8 million associated with our derivatives not designated as hedging instruments were included in other, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
As of March 31, 2019, 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 $3.0 million.
Note 6 -Earnings Per Share
We compute basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") in accordance with the two-class method. Net income attributable to EnscoRowan 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 period ended March 31, 2019, all income attributable to noncontrolling interest was from continuing operations. The following table is a reconciliation of income from continuing operations attributable to EnscoRowan shares used in our basic and diluted EPS computations for the quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 (in millions):

| 2019 |  | 2018
Loss from continuing operations attributable to EnscoRowan | $ | (190.4 | ) |  | $ | (140.0 | )
Income from continuing operations allocated to non-vested share awards | (.1 | ) |  | (.1 | )
Loss from continuing operations attributable to EnscoRowan shares | $ | (190.5 | ) |  | $ | (140.1 | )

Anti-dilutive share awards totaling 200,000 and 400,000 were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS for the quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
17

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 quarter s ended March 31, 2019 or 2018.
Note 7 - Shareholders' Equity

Note 8 -Income Taxes
Ensco Rowan 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. Therefore, we generally incur income tax expense in periods in which we operate at a loss.
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.
Income tax rates and taxation systems in the jurisdictions in which our subsidiaries conduct operations vary and our subsidiaries are frequently subjected to minimum taxation regimes. In some jurisdictions, tax liabilities are based on gross revenues, statutory or negotiated deemed profits or other factors, rather than on net income and our subsidiaries are frequently unable to realize tax benefits when they operate at a loss. Accordingly, during periods of declining profitability, our consolidated income tax expense generally does not decline proportionally with consolidated income, which results in higher effective income tax rates. Furthermore, we generally continue to incur income tax expense in periods in which we operate at a loss on a consolidated basis.
Historically, we 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 quarter ended March 31, 2019. We used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate income taxes for the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and 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 expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was $0.6 million and was attributable to unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years. Discrete income tax benefit for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 was $8.9 million and was primarily attributable to U.S. tax reform and a restructuring transaction, partially offset by discrete tax expense related to the repurchase and redemption of senior notes and unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years.
Note 9 -Contingencies
DSA Dispute
On January 4, 2016, Petrobras sent a notice to us declaring the drilling services agreement with Petrobras (the "DSA") for ENSCO DS-5, a drillship ordered from Samsung Heavy Industries, a shipyard in South Korea ("SHI"), void effective immediately, reserving its rights and stating its intention to seek any restitution to which it may be entitled. The previously disclosed arbitral hearing on liability related to the matter was held in March 2018. Prior to the arbitration tribunal issuing its decision, we and Petrobras agreed in August 2018 to a settlement of all claims relating to the DSA. No payments were made by either party in connection with the settlement agreement. The parties agreed to normalize business relations and the settlement agreement provides for our participation in current and future Petrobras tenders on the same basis as all other companies invited to these tenders. No losses were recognized during 2018 with respect to this settlement as all disputed receivables with Petrobras related to the DSA were fully reserved in 2015.
19

In November 2016, we initiated separate arbitration proceedings in the U.K. against SHI for the losses incurred in connection with the foregoing Petrobras arbitration and certain other losses relating to the DSA. 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 our favor. In August 2018, the tribunal awarded us approximately $2.8 million in costs and legal fees incurred to date, plus interest, which was collected during the fourth quarter of 2018.
The January 2018 arbitration award provides that SHI is liable to us for $10.0 million or damages that we can prove. We submitted our claim for damages to the tribunal, and the arbitral hearing on damages owed to us by SHI took place in the first quarter of 2019. We are awaiting the result of the tribunal’s decision, and we are unable to estimate the ultimate outcome of recovery for damages at this time.
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 March 31, 2019 totaled $128.0 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 March 31, 2019, we had not been required to make collateral deposits with respect to these agreements.
Note 10 -Leases
We have operating leases for office space, facilities, equipment, employee housing and certain rig berthing facilities. For all asset classes, except office space, we account for the lease component and the non-lease component as a single lease component. Our leases have remaining lease terms of less than one year to 11 years, some of which include options to extend. Additionally, we sublease certain office space to third parties.
The components of lease expense are as follows (in millions):

| Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
Long-term operating lease cost | $ | 6.2 |
Short-term operating lease cost | 3.1 |
Sublease income | (.4 | )
Total operating lease cost | $ | 8.9 |

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.

Note 14 -Subsequent Events
Upon closing of the Rowan Transaction, we effected a consolidation (being a reverse stock split under English law) where every four existing Class A ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of $0.10, were consolidated into one Class A ordinary share, each with a nominal value of $0.40 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Our shares began trading on a reverse stock split-adjusted basis on April 11, 2019. All share and per share data included in this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.
Effective upon closing of the Rowan Transaction, we amended our credit facility to, among other changes, increase the borrowing capacity. Previously, our borrowing capacity was $2.0 billion through September 2019, $1.3 billion through September 2020 and $1.2 billion through September 2022. Subsequent to the amendment, our borrowing capacity is $2.3 billion through September 30, 2019 and $1.7 billion through September 30, 2022. The credit agreement governing the credit facility includes an accordion feature allowing us to increase future commitments up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $250.0 million.
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 condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2019 and for the quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, included elsewhere herein and with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. 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 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.
As of March 31, 2019, our rig fleet included 12 drillships, nine dynamically-positioned semisubmersible rigs, three moored semisubmersible rigs and 35 jackup rigs, including three rigs under construction. On April 11, 2019, we completed our combination with Rowan and changed our name to Ensco Rowan plc. Following the Rowan Transaction (as defined herein), excluding two Rowan rigs marked for retirement and ENSCO 97 which we scrapped in April 2019, we own an offshore drilling rig fleet of 81 rigs with drilling operations in almost every strategic market around the globe. Our combined rig fleet includes 16 drillships, nine dynamically-positioned semisubmersible rigs, three moored semisubmersible rigs and 53 jackup rigs, nine of which are leased to our 50/50 joint venture with Saudi Aramco as discussed further below.
Rowan Transaction
On October 7, 2018, we entered into a transaction agreement (the "Transaction Agreement") with Rowan and on April 11, 2019 (the "Transaction Date"), we completed our combination with Rowan pursuant to the Transaction Agreement (the "Rowan Transaction") and changed our name to Ensco Rowan plc. Rowan's financial results will be included in our consolidated results beginning on the Transaction Date.
As a result of the Rowan Transaction, Rowan shareholders received 2.750 Ensco Class A Ordinary shares for each share of Rowan Class A ordinary shares, representing a value of $43.67 per Rowan share based on a closing price of $15.88 per Ensco share on April 10, 2019, the last trading day before the Transaction Date. Total consideration delivered in the Rowan Transaction consisted of 88.3 million Ensco shares with an aggregate value of $1.4 billion. All

share and per share data included in this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split (as defined herein).
Prior to the Rowan Transaction, Rowan and Saudi Aramco formed a 50/50 joint venture to own, manage and operate drilling rigs offshore Saudi Arabia ("Saudi Aramco Rowan Offshore Drilling Company" or "ARO"). ARO currently owns a fleet of seven jackup rigs, leases another nine jackup rigs from us and has plans to order up to 20 newbuild jackup rigs over the next 10 years. The rigs we lease to ARO are done so through bareboat charter agreements whereby substantially all operating costs are borne by ARO. Seven of the leased rigs are operating under three-year contracts with Saudi Aramco. Two of the leased rigs are undergoing shipyard projects prior to commencing their three-year contracts between ARO and Saudi Aramco which are expected to commence in July 2019. All seven ARO-owned jackup rigs are under long-term contracts with Saudi Aramco.
Additionally, as a result of the Rowan Transaction, we assumed the following debt from Rowan: (1) $201.4 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.875% unsecured senior notes due 2019, (2) $620.8 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.875% unsecured senior notes due 2022, (3) $398.1 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.75% unsecured senior notes due 2024, (4) $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.4% unsecured senior notes due 2042, (5) $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.85% unsecured senior notes due 2044 and (6) $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.375% unsecured senior notes due 2025. Upon closing of the Rowan Transaction, we terminated Rowan's outstanding credit facilities.
The Rowan Transaction is expected to enhance the market leadership of the combined company with a fleet of high-specification floaters and jackups and position us well to meet increasing and evolving customer demand. The increased scale, diversification and financial strength of the combined company will provide us advantages to better serve our customers. Exclusive of two older jackup rigs marked for retirement, Rowan’s offshore rig fleet consists of four ultra-deepwater drillships and 19 jackup rigs.
Reverse Stock Split
Upon closing of the Rowan Transaction, we effected a consolidation (being a reverse stock split under English law) where every four existing Class A ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of $0.10, were consolidated into one Class A ordinary share, each with a nominal value of $0.40 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Our shares began trading on a reverse stock split-adjusted basis on April 11, 2019. All share and per share data included in this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.
Our Industry
Oil prices have increased meaningfully from the decade lows reached during 2016, with Brent crude averaging nearly $55 per barrel in 2017 and more than $70 per barrel through most of 2018, leading to signs of a gradual recovery in demand for offshore drilling services. However, macroeconomic and geopolitical headwinds triggered a decline in Brent crude prices in the fourth quarter of 2018, resulting in a decline in prices from more than $85 per barrel at the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2018 to approximately $50 per barrel at year-end 2018. Oil prices have experienced a gradual recovery from this decline during the first quarter of 2019 with Brent crude prices recently exceeding $70 per barrel.
While market volatility may continue over the near-term, we expect long-term oil prices to remain at levels sufficient to result in more offshore projects that are economic for our customers. Therefore, we expect that the near-term market conditions will remain challenging while demand for contract drilling services continues its gradual recovery with different segments of the market recovering more quickly than others.
We continue to observe improvements in the shallow-water market, particularly with respect to higher-specification rigs, as higher levels of customer demand and rig retirements have led to gradually increasing jackup utilization over the past year. Moreover, global floater utilization has increased as compared to a year ago due to a higher number of contracted rigs and lower global supply resulting from rig retirements.
36

Despite the increase in customer activity, contract awards remain subject to an extremely competitive bidding process, and the corresponding pressure on operating day rates in recent periods has resulted in low margin contracts, particularly for floaters. Therefore, our results from operations may continue to decline over the near-term as current contracts with above market rates expire and new contracts are executed at lower rates. We believe further improvements in demand coupled with a reduction in rig supply are necessary to improve the commercial landscape for day rates.
Liquidity Position
We remain focused on our liquidity and over the past several years have executed a number of financing transactions to improve our financial position and manage our debt maturities. Based on our balance sheet, our contractual backlog and availability under our credit facility, we expect to fund our liquidity needs, including contractual obligations and anticipated capital expenditures, as well as working capital requirements, from cash and short-term investments and, if necessary, funds borrowed under our credit facility or other future financing arrangements, including available shipyard financing options for our two drillships under construction. We may rely on the issuance of debt and/or equity securities in the future to supplement our liquidity needs.
Cash and Debt
As of March 31, 2019, we had $5.2 billion in total debt principal outstanding, representing approximately 39.5% of our total capitalization. As of March 31, 2019, we had $543.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments and $2.0 billion of undrawn capacity under our credit facility.
Upon closing of the Rowan Transaction, we had $7.7 billion total debt principal outstanding on a pro forma basis as of March 31, 2019. After adjusting total capital to reflect the $1.4 billion equity consideration transferred and the estimated $753.7 million bargain purchase gain resulting from the Rowan Transaction, our total debt principal outstanding represented approximately 43.3% of our adjusted total capitalization on a pro forma basis as of March 31, 2019. We also had $1.5 billion in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments on a pro forma basis as of March 31, 2019.
Effective upon closing of the Rowan Transaction, we amended our credit facility to, among other changes, increase the borrowing capacity. Previously, our borrowing capacity was $2.0 billion through September 2019, $1.3 billion through September 2020 and $1.2 billion through September 2022. Subsequent to the amendment, our borrowing capacity is $2.3 billion through September 30, 2019 and $1.7 billion through September 30, 2022. The credit agreement governing the credit facility includes an accordion feature allowing us to increase future commitments up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $250.0 million.
Backlog
As of March 31, 2019, our backlog was $2.0 billion as compared to $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2018. Our backlog declined primarily due to revenues realized during the quarter, partially offset by new contract awards and contract extensions. Adjusted for the Rowan Transaction on a pro forma basis, our backlog as of March 31, 2019 was $2.6 billion.
As above-market rate contracts expire and revenues are realized, we may experience declines in backlog, which could 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 each annual and quarterly report on February 28, 2019 and May 2, 2019, respectively.

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
Floaters
The floater contracting environment remains challenging due to limited demand and excess newbuild supply. Floater demand has declined significantly in recent years due primarily to lower commodity prices which have caused our customers to reduce capital expenditures, particularly for capital-intensive, long-lead deepwater projects, resulting in the cancellation and delay of drilling programs. During the past several quarters, we have observed increased activity that may translate 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 executed a four-well contract for ENSCO DS-9 that is expected to commence offshore Brazil in June 2019 and a six-month contract for ENSCO DS-7, which commenced offshore Egypt in April 2019. Additionally, we executed a two-well contract for ENSCO DPS-1 that is expected to commence in February 2020 and a four-well contract for ENSCO 8503 that is expected to commence in June 2019.
With respect to legacy Rowan floaters, a one-well option was executed for Rowan Relentless during the first quarter. Additionally, a one-well priced option was executed for Rowan Renaissance that is expected to commence during the second quarter of 2019.
There are approximately 30 newbuild drillships and semisubmersible rigs reported to be under construction, of which approximately 15 are scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2019. Nearly all newbuild floaters are uncontracted. Several newbuild deliveries have been delayed into future years, and we expect that more uncontracted newbuilds will be delayed or cancelled.
Drilling contractors have retired approximately 125 floaters since the beginning of the downturn. Approximately 20 floaters older than 30 years of age are currently idle, approximately 15 additional floaters older than 30 years have contracts that will expire by year-end 2019 without follow-on work and a further approximately five 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 nine-well contract for ENSCO 100 that is expected to commence in November 2019. As a result, a previously disclosed contract for ENSCO 100 is expected to be fulfilled by an ENSCO 120 series rig. Additionally, we executed a three-well contract for ENSCO 121 that commenced in April 2019 and a three-well contract and a one-well contract for ENSCO 72 and ENSCO 68, respectively, which are both expected to commence in May 2019. We also executed short-term contract extensions for ENSCO 101 and ENSCO 96.
With respect to the legacy Rowan jackups, a six-month contract extension with a two-month option was executed for Gorilla VI during the first quarter. Additionally, short-term contracts were executed for Rowan Norway, Rowan Viking and EXL II, which are expected to commence at various points this year. The Rowan Viking and Rowan Norway contracts include four additional one-well priced options and two short-term option periods, respectively.
During the first quarter, we began marketing for sale ENSCO 97 and classified the rig as held-for-sale as of March 31, 2019. The rig was sold for scrap in April 2019, resulting in an insignificant gain that will be recognized during the second quarter.
38

There are approximately 70 newbuild jackup rigs reported to be under construction, of which approximately 35 are scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2019. 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 90 jackups since the beginning of the downturn. Approximately 95 jackups older than 30 years are idle and approximately 60 jackups that are 30 years or older have contracts expiring by the end of 2019 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 2019.
Divestitures
Our business strategy has been to focus on ultra-deepwater floater and premium jackup operations and de-emphasize 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 scrapped ENSCO 97 in April 2019, which was an older, less capable jackup rig.
We continue to focus on our fleet management strategy in light of the new composition of our rig fleet following the Atwood acquisition and the Rowan Transaction. 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 quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 (in millions). The table and subsequent discussion of our results of operations do not include the results of Rowan:

Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests | (2.4 | ) |  | .4 |
Net loss attributable to EnscoRowan | $ | (190.4 | ) |  | $ | (140.1 | )

Overview
Revenues declined $11.1 million, or 3%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the prior year quarter due primarily to the sale of two rigs that operated in the prior period and lower average day rates for our floaters segment, partially offset by increased utilization for our jackups segment.
39

Contract drilling expense increased by $7.4 million, or 2%, as compared to the prior year quarter due primarily to the commencement of ENSCO DS-10, ENSCO DS-9, ENSCO 140 and ENSCO 141 drilling operations and increased utilization for our jackups segment. These increases were partially offset by the sale of two rigs.
Depreciation expense increased by $9.8 million, or 9%, as compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to the commencement of ENSCO DS-10, ENSCO DS-9, ENSCO 140 and ENSCO 141 drilling operations.
General and administrative expenses increased by $1.7 million, or 6%, as compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to higher Rowan Transaction-related costs, partially offset by lower professional fees.
Other expense, net, increased by $4.5 million, or 6%, as compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to lower capitalized interest resulting from the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 drilling operations during 2018. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2018, we recognized a $18.8 million pre-tax loss on debt extinguishment associated with the repurchase and redemption of senior notes and $6.3 million of foreign currency losses, which were partially offset by measurement period adjustments recorded from the Atwood acquisition resulting in an additional bargain purchase gain of $16.6 million.
Rig Counts, Utilization and Average Day Rates
The following table summarizes our offshore drilling rigs by reportable segment and rigs under construction as of March 31, 2019 and 2018:

| 2019 |  | 2018
Floaters(1) | 22 |  | 23
Jackups(2) | 33 |  | 35
Under construction(3) | 3 |  | 3
Held-for-sale(1)(2)(4) | 1 |  | 4
Total | 59 |  | 65

(1) | During the second quarter of 2018, we classified ENSCO 6001 as held-for-sale.

(2) | During the second quarter of 2018, we classified ENSCO 80 as held-for sale. During the first quarter of 2019, we classified ENSCO 97 as held-for sale.

(3) | In April 2019, we accepted delivery of ENSCO 123 which will be presented within jackups beginning in the second quarter.

(4) | During the second quarter of 2018, we sold ENSCO 7500, ENSCO 81 and ENSCO 82. During the third quarter of 2018, we sold ENSCO 5005, ENSCO 6001 and ENSCO 80.

The following table summarizes our rig utilization and average day rates by reportable segment for the quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018:

| 2019 |  | 2018
Rig Utilization(1) |  |  |
Floaters | 43% |  | 44%
Jackups | 68% |  | 61%
Total | 58% |  | 54%
Average Day Rates(2) |  |  |
Floaters | $240,440 |  | $262,661
Jackups | 72,146 |  | 73,529
Total | $120,935 |  | $132,486

(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 by Segment
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 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 the column "Reconciling Items."

Floaters
Floater revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 declined by $26.3 million, or 10%, as compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to lower average day rates and the sale of ENSCO 6001 which operated in the prior period. The decline was partially offset by the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 and ENSCO DS-9 drilling operations.
Floater contract drilling expense declined by $3.3 million, or 2%, as compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to the sale of ENSCO 6001 and lower contract preparation costs. This decline was partially offset by the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 and ENSCO DS-9 drilling operations.
Floater depreciation expense increased by $9.5 million, or 13%, as compared to the prior year quarter primarily due the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 and ENSCO DS-9 drilling operations.
Jackups
Jackup revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 increased by $13.6 million, or 9%, as compared to the prior year quarter primarily due the commencement of ENSCO 140 and ENSCO 141 drilling operations and increased utilization. The increase in revenues was partially offset by the sale of ENSCO 80 which operated in the prior period.
Jackup contract drilling expense increased $8.5 million, or 7%, as compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to the commencement of ENSCO 140 and ENSCO 141 drilling operations and increased utilization. The increase was partially offset by the sale of ENSCO 80 which operated in the prior period.

Other Income (Expense)
The following table summarizes other income (expense) for the quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 (in millions):

| 2019 |  | 2018
Interest income | $ | 3.5 |  |  | $ | 3.0 |
Interest expense, net: |  |  |  |
Interest expense | (87.2 | ) |  | (84.0 | )
Capitalized interest | 6.2 |  |  | 18.4 |
| (81.0 | ) |  | (65.6 | )
Other, net | 2.3 |  |  | (8.1 | )
| $ | (75.2 | ) |  | $ | (70.7 | )

Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 increased $3.2 million, or 4%, as compared to the prior year period due to the debt transactions we undertook during the first quarter of 2018.
Capitalized interest for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 declined $12.2 million, or 66%, as compared to the prior year period primarily due the commencement of ENSCO DS-10 operations.
Other, net, for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 increased as compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to a pre-tax loss of $18.8 million recognized during the first quarter of 2018 related to the repurchase and redemption of senior notes, in addition to foreign currency losses incurred in the same period primarily due to the devaluation of Angolan Kwanza and Venezuelan Bolivar as discussed below. These losses were partially offset by measurement period adjustments from the Atwood acquisition that resulted in the recognition of additional bargain purchase gain of $16.6 million during the first quarter of 2018.
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. Inclusive of offsetting fair value derivatives, net foreign currency exchange losses of $300,000 and $6.3 million were included in other, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. The 2018 losses were primarily due to the devaluation of the Angolan Kwanza and Venezuelan Bolivar.
Provision for Income Taxes
Ensco Rowan 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. Therefore, we generally incur income tax expense in periods in which we operate at a loss.
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.
43

Income tax rates and taxation systems in the jurisdictions in which our subsidiaries conduct operations vary and our subsidiaries are frequently subjected to minimum taxation regimes. In some jurisdictions, tax liabilities are based on gross revenues, statutory or negotiated deemed profits or other factors, rather than on net income and our subsidiaries are frequently unable to realize tax benefits when they operate at a loss. Accordingly, during periods of declining profitability, our consolidated income tax expense generally does not decline proportionally with consolidated income, which results in higher effective income tax rates. Furthermore, we generally continue to incur income tax expense in periods in which we operate at a loss on a consolidated basis.
Discrete income tax expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was $0.6 million and was attributable to unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years. Discrete income tax benefit for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 was $8.9 million and was primarily attributable to U.S. tax reform and a restructuring transaction, partially offset by discrete tax expense related to the repurchase and redemption of senior notes and unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years.
Income tax expense, excluding the aforementioned discrete tax items, for the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $30.9 million and $27.3 million, respectively. The $3.6 million increase in income tax expense as compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to an increase in the U.S. base erosion anti-abuse tax rate and an increase in the relative components of our earnings generated in tax jurisdictions with higher tax rates, partially offset by lower overall income levels.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We remain focused on our liquidity and over the past several years have executed a number of financing transactions to improve our financial position and manage our debt maturities. In recent periods, a substantial portion of our cash has been utilized to repurchase debt and invest in the expansion and enhancement of our fleet of drilling rigs through newbuild construction, mergers and acquisitions and upgrade projects. We expect that our cash and short-term investments will primarily be used to fund capital expenditures and service our debt during 2019.
Based on our balance sheet, our contractual backlog and availability under our credit facility, we expect to fund our liquidity needs, including contractual obligations and anticipated capital expenditures, as well as working capital requirements, from cash and short-term investments and, if necessary, funds borrowed under our credit facility or other future financing arrangements, including available shipyard financing options for our two drillships under construction. We may rely on the issuance of debt and/or equity securities in the future to supplement our liquidity needs.
Effective upon closing of the Rowan Transaction, we amended our credit facility to, among other changes, increase the borrowing capacity. Previously, our borrowing capacity was $2.0 billion through September 2019, $1.3 billion through September 2020 and $1.2 billion through September 2022. Subsequent to the amendment, our borrowing capacity is $2.3 billion through September 30, 2019 and $1.7 billion through September 30, 2022. The credit agreement governing the credit facility includes an accordion feature allowing us to increase future commitments up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $250.0 million.
Additionally, as a result of the Rowan Transaction, we assumed the following debt from Rowan: (1) $201.4 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.875% unsecured senior notes due 2019, (2) $620.8 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.875% unsecured senior notes due 2022, (3) $398.1 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.75% unsecured senior notes due 2024, (4) $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.4% unsecured senior notes due 2042, (5) $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.85% unsecured senior notes due 2044 and (6) $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.375% unsecured senior notes due 2025. Upon closing of the Rowan Transaction, we terminated Rowan's outstanding credit facilities.
Our Board of Directors declared a $0.01 quarterly cash dividend, on a pre-Reverse Stock Split basis, during the first quarter. See "Note 14 - Subsequent Events" for additional information on the Reverse Stock Split. Our revolving credit facility prohibits us from paying dividends in excess of $0.01 per share per fiscal quarter. Dividends
44

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 quarter ended March 31, 2019, our primary source of cash was $84.0 million from net maturities of short-term investments. Our primary uses of cash for the same period were $29.0 million for the construction, enhancement and other improvements of our drilling rigs and $24.4 million used in operating activities of continuing operations.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, our primary source of cash was $1.0 billion in proceeds from the issuance of senior notes and $39.5 million generated from operating activities of continuing operations. Our primary uses of cash for the same period were $771.0 million for the repurchase and redemption of outstanding debt and $269.3 million for the construction, enhancement and other improvements of our drilling rigs.
Cash Flow and Capital Expenditures
Our cash flow from operating activities of continuing operations and capital expenditures for the quarter s ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows (in millions):

| 2019 |  | 2018
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities of continuing operations | $ | (24.4 | ) |  | $ | 39.5 |
Capital expenditures |  |  |  |  |
New rig construction | $ | 16.2 |  |  | $ | 234.9 |
Rig enhancements | 3.0 |  |  | 18.3 |
Minor upgrades and improvements | 9.8 |  |  | 16.1 |
| $ | 29.0 |  |  | $ | 269.3 |

Cash flows from operating activities of continuing operations declined $63.9 million as compared to the prior year period due primarily to declining margins. As challenging industry conditions persist, and our remaining above-market contracts expire and utilization increases with the execution of new market-rate contracts, coupled with the potential impact of rig reactivation costs, our operating cash flows may decline further and remain negative over the near-term.
As of March 31, 2019 we had one premium jackup rig under construction, ENSCO 123 which was delivered in April 2019. In January 2018, we made a $207.4 million milestone payment. The remaining balance of $7.6 million was paid upon delivery. 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.
The following table summarizes the cumulative amount of contractual payments made as of March 31, 2019 for our rigs under construction and estimated timing of our remaining contractual payments (in millions):

|  | Cumulative Paid(1) |  | Remaining 2019 |  | 2020 |  | Thereafter |  | Total(2)
ENSCO 123 |  | $ | 278.0 |  |  | $ | 7.6 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 285.6 |
ENSCO DS-13(3) |  | — |  |  | 83.9 |  |  | — |  |  | — |  |  | 83.9 |
ENSCO DS-14(3) |  | 15.0 |  |  | — |  |  | 165.0 |  |  | — |  |  | 180.0 |
|  | $ | 293.0 |  |  | $ | 91.5 |  |  | $ | 165.0 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 549.5 |

(1) | Cumulative paid represents the aggregate amount of contractual payments made from commencement of the construction agreement through March 31, 2019. Contractual payments made by Atwood prior to the Atwood acquisition for ENSCO DS-13 and ENSCO DS-14 are excluded.

45

(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 31, 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, inclusive of capital expenditures relating to Rowan subsequent to the Rowan Transaction Date and subject to Board approval, we expect total capital expenditures during 2019 to include approximately $160.0 million for newbuild construction, approximately $70.0 million for minor upgrades and improvements and approximately $90.0 million for rig enhancement projects. Depending on market conditions and future opportunities, we may reduce our planned expenditures or make additional capital expenditures to upgrade rigs for customer requirements and construct or acquire additional rigs.
Financing and Capital Resources
Debt to Capital
Our total debt, total capital and total debt to total capital ratios are summarized below (in millions, except percentages):

|  | Pro Forma(1) |  | March 31, 2019 |  | December 31, 2018
|  | March 31, 2019 |  |
Total debt (2) |  | $ | 7,681.3 |  |  | $ | 5,161.0 |  |  | $ | 5,161.0 |
Total capital(3) |  | $ | 17,725.7 |  |  | $ | 13,061.5 |  |  | $ | 13,252.4 |
Total debt to total capital |  | 43.3 | % |  | 39.5 | % |  | 38.9 | %

(1) | Pro forma amounts reflect the impact of the Rowan Transaction as if it occurred on March 31, 2019. Total debt was adjusted to include Rowan's $2.5 billion principal amount of outstanding debt. In additional to the inclusion of Rowan's $2.5 billion principal amount of debt outstanding, total capital was adjusted to reflect the $1.4 billion of consideration transferred and the estimated $753.7 million bargain purchase gain. See "Note 3 - Rowan Transaction" for additional information on the Rowan Transaction.

(2) | Total debt consists of the principal amount outstanding.

(3) | Total capital consists of total debt and EnscoRowan shareholders' equity.

Revolving Credit
Effective upon closing of the Rowan Transaction, we amended our credit facility to, among other changes, increase the borrowing capacity. Previously, our borrowing capacity was $2.0 billion through September 2019, $1.3 billion through September 2020 and $1.2 billion through September 2022. Subsequent to the amendment, our borrowing capacity is $2.3 billion through September 30, 2019 and $1.7 billion through September 30, 2022. The credit agreement governing the credit facility includes an accordion feature allowing us to increase future commitments up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $250.0 million.
46

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 commitment, which is also based on our credit rating.
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 $1 billion 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 $200 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 $250.0 million and there are no amounts outstanding under the credit facility.
As of March 31, 2019, 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 March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Our access to credit and capital markets depends on the credit ratings assigned to our debt, and we no longer 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 the Company 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 16.3 million shares. The program terminates in May 2023. As of March 31, 2019, there had been no share repurchases under this program. Our credit facility prohibits us from repurchasing our shares, except in certain limited circumstances. Any share repurchases, outside of such limited circumstances, would require the amendment or waiver of such provision.
From time to time, we and our affiliates may repurchase or refinance 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, pursuant to their terms. In connection with any exchange or refinancing transaction, we may issue equity, issue new debt and/or pay cash consideration. Any future repurchases, exchanges, redemptions or refinancings 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.
47

Other Commitments
As of March 31, 2019, we were contingently liable for an aggregate amount of $128.0 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 March 31, 2019, we had not been required to make any collateral deposits with respect to these agreements.
In connection with our 50/50 joint venture with ARO, in the event ARO has insufficient cash from operations or is unable to obtain third party financing, we may periodically be required to make additional capital contributions to ARO, up to a maximum aggregate contribution of $1.25 billion. See "Note 3 - Rowan Transaction" for additional information on the Rowan Transaction.
Liquidity
Our liquidity position is summarized in the table below (in millions, except ratios):

|  | Pro Forma |  | March 31, 2019 |  | December 31, 2018
|  | March 31, 2019 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 338.5 |  |  | $ | 298.4 |  |  | $ | 275.1 |
Short-term investments |  | $ | 1,141.7 |  |  | $ | 245.0 |  |  | $ | 329.0 |
Working capital |  | $ | 1,575.2 |  |  | $ | 695.0 |  |  | $ | 781.2 |
Current ratio |  | 2.6 |  |  | 2.3 |  |  | 2.5 |

The pro forma amounts reflect the impact of the Rowan Transaction as if it occurred on March 31, 2019. The pro forma working capital and current ratio reflect current assets acquired and current liabilities assumed of $1.3 billion and $433.3 million, respectively.
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 and short-term investments, and, if necessary, funds borrowed under the credit facility or future financing arrangements, including available shipyard financing options for our two drillships under construction. We may rely on the issuance of debt and/or equity securities in the future to supplement our liquidity needs.
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 March 31, 2019, we had cash flow hedges outstanding to exchange an aggregate $169.6 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
48

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 March 31, 2019, we held derivatives not designated as hedging instruments to exchange an aggregate $191.8 million for various foreign currencies.
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 March 31, 2019 would approximate $20.1 million. Approximately $13.4 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 - Derivative Instruments" 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, 2018, included in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019. 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 us 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, 2018. During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, there were no material changes to the judgments, assumptions or policies upon which our critical accounting estimates are based.
New Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in "Item 1. Financial Information" for information on new accounting pronouncements.
49

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."
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, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, are effective.
During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019, 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
DSA Dispute
On January 4, 2016, Petrobras sent a notice to us declaring the drilling services agreement with Petrobras (the "DSA") for ENSCO DS-5, a drillship ordered from Samsung Heavy Industries, a shipyard in South Korea ("SHI"), void effective immediately, reserving its rights and stating its intention to seek any restitution to which it may be entitled. The previously disclosed arbitral hearing on liability related to the matter was held in March 2018. Prior to the arbitration tribunal issuing its decision, we and Petrobras agreed in August 2018 to a settlement of all claims relating to the DSA. No payments were made by either party in connection with the settlement agreement. The parties agreed to normalize business relations and the settlement agreement provides for our participation in current and future Petrobras tenders on the same basis as all other companies invited to these tenders. No losses were recognized during 2018 with respect to this settlement as all disputed receivables with Petrobras related to the DSA were fully reserved in 2015. See Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 for further information about the DSA dispute.
In November 2016, we initiated separate arbitration proceedings in the U.K. against SHI for the losses incurred in connection with the foregoing Petrobras arbitration and certain other losses relating to the DSA. 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 our favor. In August 2018, the tribunal awarded us approximately $2.8 million in costs and legal fees incurred to date, plus interest, which was collected during the fourth quarter of 2018.
The January 2018 arbitration award provides that SHI is liable to us for $10.0 million or damages that we can prove. We submitted our claim for damages to the tribunal, and the arbitral hearing on damages owed to us by SHI took place in the first quarter of 2019. We are awaiting the result of the tribunal’s decision, and we are unable to estimate the ultimate outcome of recovery for damages at this time.
Pride FCPA Investigation
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.
51

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 March 31, 2019.
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, 2018, 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. There have been no material changes from the risks previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, except as set forth below.
We may not realize the expected benefits of the ARO joint venture and it may introduce additional risks to our business.
In November 2016, Rowan and Saudi Aramco announced plans to form a 50/50 joint venture with Rowan and Saudi Aramco each selling existing drilling units and contributing capital as the foundation of the new company. The new entity, ARO, commenced operations on October 17, 2017, and is expected to add up to 20 newbuild jackup rigs to its fleet over 10 years commencing as early as 2021. There can be no assurance that the new jackup rigs will begin operations as anticipated or we will realize the expected return on our investment. We may also experience difficulty jointly managing the venture, and integrating our existing employees, business systems, technologies and services with those of Saudi Aramco in order to operate the joint venture efficiently. Further, in the event ARO has insufficient
52

cash from operations or is unable to obtain third party financing, we may periodically be required to make additional capital contributions to ARO, up to a maximum aggregate contribution of $1.25 billion, which could affect our liquidity position. As a result of these risks, it may take longer than expected for us to realize the expected returns from ARO or such returns may ultimately be less than anticipated. Additionally, if we are unable to make any required contributions, our ownership in ARO could be diluted which could hinder our ability to effectively manage ARO and harm our operating results or financial condition.
Operating through ARO, in which we have a shared interest, may also result in us having less control over many decisions made with respect to projects and internal controls relating to projects. ARO may not apply the same internal controls and internal control over financial reporting that we follow. As a result, internal control issues may arise, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, in order to establish or preserve our relationship with our joint venture partner, we may agree to risks and contributions of resources that are proportionately greater than the returns we could receive, which could reduce our income and return on our investment in ARO compared to what we may traditionally require in other areas of our business.
53

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
The table below provides a summary of our repurchases of equity securities during the quarter ended March 31, 2019:

Issuer Repurchases of Equity Securities
Period | Total Number of Securities Repurchased(1) |  | Average Price Paid per Security |  | Total Number of Securities Repurchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs (2) |  | Approximate Dollar Value of Securities that May Yet Be Repurchased Under Plans or Programs
January 1 - January 31 | 515 |  |  | $ | 14.64 |  |  | — |  |  | $ | 500,000,000 |
February 1 - February 28 | 517 |  |  | $ | 17.64 |  |  | — |  |  | $ | 500,000,000 |
March 1 - March 31 | 167,235 |  |  | $ | 16.91 |  |  | — |  |  | $ | 500,000,000 |
Total | 168,267 |  |  | $ | 16.91 |  |  | — |  |  |  |

(1) | Equity securities were repurchased from employees and non-employee directors by an affiliated employee benefit trust in connection with the settlement of income tax withholding obligations arising from the vesting of share awards. Such securities remain available for re-issuance in connection with employee share awards.

(2) | During 2018, our shareholders approved a new share repurchase program. Subject to certain provisions under English law, including the requirement of Ensco Rowan plc to have sufficient distributable reserves, we may purchase up to a maximum of $500 million in the aggregate under the program, but in no case more than 16.3 million shares. The program terminates in May 2023.
