ANADARKO PETROLEUM CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)


1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

General  Anadarko Petroleum Corporation is engaged in the exploration, development, production, and marketing of oil, condensate, natural gas, and natural gas liquids (NGLs), and in the marketing of anticipated production of liquefied natural gas (LNG). In addition, the Company engages in the gathering, processing, treating, and transporting of oil, condensate, natural gas, and NGLs. The Company also participates in the hard-minerals business through royalty arrangements. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Anadarko” and “Company” refer to Anadarko Petroleum Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Basis of Presentation  The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Anadarko and subsidiaries in which Anadarko holds, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights and variable interest entities (VIEs) for which Anadarko is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Undivided interests in oil and natural-gas exploration and production joint ventures are consolidated on a proportionate basis. Investments in non-controllednoncontrolled entities over which Anadarko has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies and VIEs for which Anadarko is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for using the equity method. In applying the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recognized at cost, and subsequently adjusted for the Company’s proportionate share of earnings, losses, and distributions. Other investments are carried at original cost. Investments accounted for using the equity method and cost method are reported as a component of other assets. Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation.

Use of Estimates  The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make informed judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Management evaluates its estimates and related assumptions regularly, including those related to proved reserves; the value of properties and equipment; goodwill; intangible assets; asset retirement obligations; litigation liabilities; environmental liabilities; pension assets, liabilities, and costs; income taxes; and fair values. Changes in facts and circumstances or additional information may result in revised estimates, and actual results may differ from these estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting StandardsThe Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30)—Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs and ASU 2015-15, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30)—Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. These ASUs require capitalized debt issuance costs, except for those related to revolving credit facilities, to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, rather than as an asset. The Company adopted these ASUs on January 1, 2016, using a retrospective approach. The adoption resulted in a reclassification that reduced other current assets and short-term debt by $1 million and reduced other assets and long-term debt by $82 million on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2015.

Impairments during the first quarter ofsix months ended June 30, 2015, were primarily related to the Company’s Greater Natural Buttes oil and gas and midstream properties in the Rockies, which were impaired due to lower forecasted commodity prices.
In addition to the long-lived asset impairments above, the Company recognized a $935 million impairment of unproved Greater Natural Buttes properties during the first quarter ofsix months ended June 30, 2015, as a result of lower commodity prices. Impairments of unproved properties are included in exploration expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Potential for Future Impairments  During 2015, the Company recognized significant impairments of proved oil and gas and midstream properties and impairments of unproved oil and gas properties, primarily as a result of lower forecasted commodity prices and related changes to the Company’s drilling plans. While commodity prices continued to decline during the first quarter of 2016, the Company did not recognize any material impairments. At March 31, 2016, the Company’s estimate of undiscounted future cash flows attributable to a certain depletion group with a net book value of approximately $2.1 billion indicated that the carrying amount was expected to be recovered; however, this depletion group may be at risk for impairment if the estimates of future cash flows decline. The Company estimates that, if this depletion group becomes impaired in a future period, the Company could recognize non-cash impairments in that period in excess of $1.0 billion. It is also reasonably possible that prolonged low or further declines in commodity prices, changes to the Company’s drilling plans in response to lower prices, or increases in drilling or operating costs could result in additionalfuture impairments.

5. Suspended Exploratory Well Costs

The Company’s suspended exploratory well costs were $1.1$1.2 billion at March 31,June 30, 2016, and $1.1 billion at December 31, 2015. DuringThe increase in suspended exploratory well costs during 2016 is primarily related to the threecapitalization of costs associated with appraisal activities in Côte d’Ivoire. There were no material charges to exploration expense during the six months ended March 31,June 30, 2016, related to suspended exploratory well costs previously capitalized for a period greater than one year since the completion of drilling at December 31, 2015, charged to exploration expense were not material.2015. Projects with suspended exploratory well costs are those identified by management as exhibiting sufficient quantities of hydrocarbons to justify potential development and where management is actively pursuing efforts to assess whether reserves can be attributed to these projects. If additional information becomes available that raises substantial doubt as to the economic or operational viability of any of these projects, the associated costs will be expensed at that time.

6. Derivative Instruments

Objective and Strategy  The Company uses derivative instruments to manage its exposure to cash-flow variability from commodity-price and interest-rate risks. Futures, swaps, and options are used to manage exposure to commodity-price risk inherent in the Company’s oil and natural-gas production and natural-gas processing operations (Oil and Natural-Gas Production/Processing Derivative Activities). Futures contracts and commodity-price swap agreements are used to fix the price of expected future oil and natural-gas sales at major industry trading locations such as Cushing, Oklahoma or Sullom Voe, Scotland for oil and Henry Hub, Louisiana for natural gas. Basis swaps are periodically used to fix or float the price differential between product prices at one market location versus another. Options are used to establish a floor price, a ceiling price, or a floor and a ceiling price (collar) for expected future oil and natural-gas sales. Derivative instruments are also used to manage commodity-price risk inherent in customer price requirements and to fix margins on the future sale of natural gas and NGLs from the Company’s leased storage facilities (Marketing and Trading Derivative Activities).
Interest-rate swaps are used to fix or float interest rates on existing or anticipated indebtedness. The purpose of these instruments is to manage the Company’s existing or anticipated exposure to interest-rate changes. The fair value of the Company’s current interest-rate swap portfolio increases (decreases) whenis subject to changes in interest rates increase (decrease).rates.
The Company does not apply hedge accounting to any of its derivative instruments. As a result, gains and losses associated with derivative instruments are recognized currently in earnings. Net derivative losses attributable to derivatives previously subject to hedge accounting reside in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and are reclassified to earnings as the transactions to which the derivatives relate are recognized in earnings. See Note 15—Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss).

A three-way collar is a combination of three options: a sold call, a purchased put, and a sold put. The sold call establishes the maximum price that the Company will receive for the contracted commodity volumes. The purchased put establishes the minimum price that the Company will receive for the contracted volumes unless the market price for the commodity falls below the sold put strike price, at which point the minimum price equals the reference price (e.g., NYMEX) plus the excess of the purchased put strike price over the sold put strike price.

Marketing and Trading Derivative Activities  The Company had financial derivative transactions with notional volumes of natural gas totaling 45 billion cubic feet (Bcf) at March 31,June 30, 2016, and 8 Bcf at December 31, 2015, that were entered into to mitigate commodity-price risk related to fixed-price purchase and sales contracts and storage activity.

Interest-Rate Derivatives  Anadarko has outstanding interest-rate swap contracts to manage interest-rate risk associated with anticipated debt issuances. The Company has locked in a fixed interest rate in exchange for a floating interest rate indexed to the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). TheIn February 2016, in exchange for amended terms with certain counterparties, the Company used proceedsmodified the mandatory termination dates from its $3.0 billion2021 to 2018 and, in some cases, the related fixed interest rates on interest-rate swaps with an aggregate notional principal amount of $500 million. Additionally, an interest-rate swap agreement was settled in March 2016, Senior Notes issuances to purchase and retire $1.25 billionresulting in a cash payment of its $2.0 billion 6.375% Senior Notes due September 2017 in April$193 million.
At June 30, 2016 pursuant to a tender offer and to redeem, the $1.750 billion 5.950% Senior Notes due September 2016 in May 2016. TheCompany had outstanding interest-rate swaps with a notional amount of $1.7 billion due prior to or at September 2021 that will manage interest-rate risk associated with the potential refinancing of the Company’s $900 million Senior Notes due 2019 and the Zero-Coupon Senior Notes due 2036 (Zero Coupons), should the Zero Coupons be put to the Company prior to the swap termination dates. At the next put date in October 2016, the accreted value of the Zero Coupons will be $839 million. See Note 8—Debt and Interest Expense. Depending on market conditions, liability-management actions, or other factors, the Company may enter into offsetting interest-rate swap positions, or settle or amend, certain or all of the currently outstanding interest-rate swaps. 
In February 2016, in exchange for amended terms with certain counterparties, the Company modified the mandatory termination dates from 2021 to 2018 and, in some cases, the related fixed interest rates on interest-rate swaps with an aggregate notional principal amount of $500 million. Additionally, an interest-rate swap agreement was settled in March 2016, resulting in a cash payment of $193 million.
Derivative settlements and collateralization are classified as cash flows from operating activities unless the derivatives contain an other-than-insignificant financing element, in which case the settlements and collateralization are classified as cash flows from financing activities. As a result of prior extensions of reference-period start dates without settlement of the related interest-rate derivative obligations, the interest-rate derivatives in the Company’s portfolio contain an other-than-insignificant financing element, and therefore, any settlements or collateralization related to these extended interest-rate derivatives are classified as cash flows from financing activities.

6. Derivative Instruments (Continued)

Credit-Risk Considerations  The financial integrity of exchange-traded contracts, which are subject to nominal credit risk, is assured by NYMEX or ICE through systems of financial safeguards and transaction guarantees. Over-the-counter traded swaps, options, and futures contracts expose the Company to counterparty credit risk. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of its counterparties, establishes credit limits according to the Company’s credit policies and guidelines, and assesses the impact on the fair value of its counterparties’ creditworthiness. The Company has the ability to require cash collateral or letters of credit to mitigate its credit-risk exposure.
The Company has netting agreements with financial institutions that permit net settlement of gross commodity derivative assets against gross commodity derivative liabilities, and routinely exercises its contractual right to offset gains and losses when settling with derivative counterparties. In addition, the Company has setoff agreements with certain financial institutions that may be exercised in the event of default and provide for contract termination and net settlement across derivative types. At March 31,June 30, 2016, $238$100 million of the Company’s $1.758$1.922 billion gross derivative liability balance, and at December 31, 2015, $347 million of the Company’s $1.722 billion gross derivative liability balance, would have been eligible for setoff against the Company’s gross derivative asset balance in the event of default. Other than in the event of default, the Company does not net settle across derivative types.
The Company’s derivative instruments are subject to individually negotiated credit provisions that may require collateral of cash or letters of credit depending on the derivative’s portfolio valuation versus negotiated credit thresholds. These credit thresholds may also require full or partial collateralization or immediate settlement of the Company’s obligations if certain credit-risk-related provisions are triggered, such as if the Company’s credit rating from major credit rating agencies declines to a level that is below investment grade. In February 2016, Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) downgraded the Company’s long-term debt credit rating from “Baa2” to “Ba1,” which is below investment grade. The downgrade triggered credit-risk-related features with certain derivative counterparties and required the Company to post collateral under its derivative instruments. The amount of cash posted as collateral pursuant to the contractual requirements applicable to derivative instruments with financial institutions was $420$599 million at March 31,June 30, 2016, and $58 million at December 31, 2015. No counterparties have requested termination or full settlement of derivative positions. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features for which a net liability position existed was $1.1$1.3 billion (net of collateral) at March 31,each of June 30, 2016, and $1.3 billion (net of collateral) at December 31, 2015.

Fair Value  Fair value of futures contracts is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, which represent Level 1 inputs. Valuations of physical-delivery purchase and sale agreements, over-the-counter financial swaps, and commodity option collars are based on similar transactions observable in active markets and industry-standard models that primarily rely on market-observable inputs. Inputs used to estimate fair value in industry-standard models are categorized as Level 2 inputs because substantially all assumptions and inputs are observable in active markets throughout the full term of the instruments. Inputs used to estimate the fair value of swaps and options include market-price curves; contract terms and prices; credit-risk adjustments; and, for Black-Scholes option valuations, discount factors and implied market volatility.

Each TEU is comprised of a prepaid equity purchase contract for common units of WGP and a senior amortizing note. Subsequent to issuance, each TEU may be legally separated into the two components. The prepaid equity purchase contract is considered a freestanding financial instrument, indexed to WGP common units, and meets the conditions for equity classification. The prepaid equity purchase contracts were recordedare included in noncontrolling interests, net of issuance costs, and the senior amortizing notes were recordedare included in short-term debt and long-term debt on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Equity Component Unless settled earlier at the holder’s option, each purchase contract has a mandatory settlement date of June 7, 2018. Anadarko has a right to elect to issue and deliver shares of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation common stock (APC shares) in lieu of delivering WGP common units at settlement. The Company will deliver not more than 0.8591 WGP common units and not less than 0.7159 WGP common units (or a computed number of APC shares) per TEU on the settlement date, subject to adjustment, at the settlement rate based upon the applicable market value of WGP common units (or APC shares).

Debt Component Each senior amortizing note has an initial principal amount of $10.95 and bears interest at 1.50% per year. On September 7, 2015, Anadarko began paying equal quarterly cash installments of $0.9375 per amortizing note (except for the September 7, 2015 installment payment, which was $0.9063 per amortizing note). The payments constitute a payment of interest and partial repayment of principal, with the aggregate per-year payments of principal and interest equating to a 7.50% cash payment with respect to each TEU. The senior amortizing notes have a final installment payment date of June 7, 2018, and are senior unsecured obligations of the Company.

The Company used proceeds from its $3.0 billion March 2016 Senior Notes issuances to purchase and retire $1.25$1.250 billion of its $2.0 billion 6.375% Senior Notes in April 2016due September 2017 pursuant to a tender offer and to redeem theits $1.750 billion 5.950% Senior Notes in Maydue September 2016. The Company recognized a loss of $124 million for the early retirement and redemption of these senior notes, which included $114 million of premiums paid.
Anadarko’s Zero Coupons can be put to the Company in October of each year, in whole or in part, for the then-accreted value, which will be $839 million at the next put date in October 2016. Anadarko’s Zero Coupons were classified as long-term debt on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31,June 30, 2016, as the Company has the ability and intent to refinance these obligations using long-term debt, should the put be exercised.

Fair Value  The Company uses a market approach to determine the fair value of its fixed-rate debt using observable market data, which results in a Level 2 fair-value measurement. The carrying amount of floating-rate debt approximates fair value as the interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates. The estimated fair value of the Company’s total borrowings was $18.9$17.2 billion at March 31,June 30, 2016, and $15.7 billion at December 31, 2015.

Anadarko Revolving Credit Facilities and Commercial Paper Program  Anadarko has a $3.0 billion five-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in January 2021 (Five-Year Facility). In addition, in January 2016 the Company replaced its previous $2.0 billion 364-day senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a new $2.0 billion 364-day senior unsecured revolving credit facility (364-Day Facility), on identical terms, that will mature in January 2017. At March 31,June 30, 2016, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Five-Year Facility or the 364-Day Facility and was in compliance with all covenants contained therein.related covenants.
In January 2015, the Company initiated a commercial paper program, which allows for a maximum of $3.0 billion of unsecured commercial paper notes and is supported by the Five-Year Facility. The maturities of the commercial paper notes may vary, but may not exceed 397 days. In February 2016, Moody’s downgraded the Company’s commercial paper program credit rating, which essentially eliminated the Company’s access to the commercial paper market. As a result, the Company has not issued commercial paper notes since the downgrade. At March 31,June 30, 2016, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the commercial paper program.

WES and WGP Borrowings  At March 31, 2016, WES was in compliance with all covenants contained in itshas a five-year $1.2 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in February 2019 (WES RCF), which is expandable to $1.5 billion.

Obligations under the WGP RCF are secured by a first priority lien on all of WGP’s assets (not including the consolidated assets of WES), as well as all equity interests owned by WGP. Borrowings under the WGP RCF bear interest at LIBOR (with a floor of 0%), plus applicable margins ranging from 2.00% to 2.75% depending on WGP’s consolidated leverage ratio, or at a base rate equal to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, or (iii) LIBOR plus 1.00%, in each case plus applicable margins ranging from 1.00% to 1.75% based upon WGP’s consolidated leverage ratio. At March 31,June 30, 2016, WGP was in compliance with all covenants contained in its RCF, had outstanding borrowings under its RCF of $28 million at an interest rate of 2.69%2.72%, and had available borrowing capacity of $222 million.million, and was in compliance with all related covenants.

The Company reported a loss before income taxes for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2016, and the six months ended June 30, 2015. As a result, items that ordinarily increase or decrease the tax rate will have the opposite effect.
The variance from the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, was primarily attributable to the non-deductible Algerian exceptional profits tax for Algerian income tax purposes and the tax impact from foreign operations. In addition, the decrease from the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2016, and 2015, was primarily attributable to non-deductible Algerian exceptional profits tax for Algerian income tax purposes, the tax impact from foreign operations,goodwill related to divestitures and net changes in uncertain tax positions.

10. Conveyance of Future Hard Minerals Royalty Revenues

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company conveyed a limited-term nonparticipating royalty interest in certain of its coal and trona leases to a third party for $413 million, net of transaction costs. Such conveyance entitles the third party to receive up to $553 million in future royalty revenue over a period of not less than 10 years and not greater than 15 years. Additionally, such third party is entitled to receive 3% of the aggregate royalties earned during the first 10 years between $800 million and $900 million and 4% of the aggregate royalties earned during the first 10 years that exceed $900 million. Generally, such third party relies solely on the royalty payments to recover its investment and, as such, has the risk of the royalties not being sufficient to recover its investment over the term of the conveyance.
Proceeds from this transaction have been accounted for as deferred revenues and are included in accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The deferred revenues will be amortized to other revenues, included in gains (losses) on divestitures and other, net on a unit-of-revenue basis over the term of the agreement. During the first quarter ofsix months ended June 30, 2016, the Company amortized $12$19 million of deferred revenues as a result of this agreement. Proceeds from the transaction and payments to the third party are reported in financing activities in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
The third partyCompany will receivemake the first payment for royalties in September 2016. The specified future amounts that the third partyCompany expects to receivepay and the payment timing are subject to change based upon the actual royalties received by the Company during the term of the conveyance.

11. Contingencies

Litigation  The following is a discussion of any material developments in previously reported contingencies and any other material matters that have arisen since the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Deepwater Horizon Events  In April 2010, the Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico blew out and an explosion occurred on the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig, resulting in an oil spill. The well was operated by BP Exploration and Production Inc. (BP) and Anadarko held a 25% nonoperated interest. In October 2011, the Company and BP entered into a settlement agreement relating to the Deepwater Horizon events (Settlement Agreement). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company is fully indemnified by BP against all claims and damages arising under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA), claims for natural resource damages (NRD) and assessment costs, and any claims arising under the Operating Agreement with BP.
Numerous Deepwater Horizon event-related civil lawsuits were filed against BP and other parties, including the Company. Generally, the plaintiffs sought actual damages, punitive damages, declaratory judgment, and/or injunctive relief. This litigation was consolidated into a federal Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) action pending before Judge Carl Barbier in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana in New Orleans, Louisiana (Louisiana District Court).

BP Consent Decree In July 2015, BP announced a settlement agreement in principle with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and certain states and local government entities regarding essentially all of the outstanding claims against BP related to the Deepwater Horizon event (BP Settlement) and, in October 2015, lodged a proposed consent decree with the Louisiana District Court. In April 2016, the Louisiana District Court approved the consent decree. As a result of the BP Settlement and approval of the consent decree, all liability relating to OPA-related environmental costs was resolved and all NRD claims and claims by the United States and the Gulf states impacted by the event relating to the MDL action were dismissed. For any remaining claims relating to the MDL action, the Company is fully indemnified by BP against any losses pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. For additional disclosure related to the Deepwater Horizon events, see Note 15ContingenciesDeepwater Horizon Events in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Penalties and Fines  In December 2010, the DOJ, on behalf of the United States, filed a civil lawsuit in the Louisiana District Court against several parties, including the Company, seeking an assessment of civil penalties under the Clean Water Act (CWA) in an amount to be determined by the Louisiana District Court. After previously finding that Anadarko, as a nonoperating investor in the Macondo well, was not culpable with respect to the Deepwater Horizon events, the Louisiana District Court found Anadarko liable for civil penalties under Section 311 of the CWA as a working-interest owner in the Macondo well and entered a judgment of $159.5 million in December 2015. Neither party appealed the decision and the Company paid the penalty in the first quarter of 2016.

The Company recognized curtailment expense for both the curtailment-related increase in the benefit obligation and a proportionate share of prior service cost from other comprehensive income (loss). The Company also recognized termination benefits expense related to benefit enhancements to certain employees affected by the workforce reduction program. In addition, the remeasurementremeasurements resulted in increases in the benefit obligation of $146$171 million for the pension benefit plans and $26$23 million for the other postretirement benefit plans, with a corresponding decrease in other comprehensive income.
At December 31, 2015, total expected contributions related to unfunded pension plans were $25 million for 2016.

17. Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated VIEs The Company determined that the partners in WGP and WES with equity at risk lack the power, through voting rights or similar rights, to direct the activities that most significantly impact WGP’s and WES’s economic performance; therefore, WGP and WES are considered VIEs. Anadarko, through its ownership of the general partner interest in WGP, has the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to WGP and WES, therefore Anadarko is considered the primary beneficiary and consolidates WGP and WES. See Note 16—Noncontrolling Interests for additional information on WGP and WES.

Assets and Liabilities of VIEs The assets of WGP and WES cannot be used by Anadarko for general corporate purposes and are both included in and disclosed parenthetically on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The carrying amounts of liabilities related to WGP and WES for which the creditors do not have recourse to other assets of the Company are both included in and disclosed parenthetically on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
All outstanding debt for WES at March 31,June 30, 2016, and December 31, 2015, including any borrowings under the WES RCF, is recourse to WES’s general partner, which in turn has been indemnified in certain circumstances by certain wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company for such liabilities. All outstanding debt for WGP at March 31,June 30, 2016, and December 31, 2015, including any borrowings under the WGP RCF, is recourse to WGP’s general partner, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. See Note 8—Debt and Interest Expense for additional information on WGP and WES long-term debt balances.

VIE Financing WGP’s sources of liquidity include borrowings under its RCF and distributions from WES. WES’s sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents, cash flows generated from operations, interest income from a note receivable from Anadarko as discussed below, borrowings under its RCF, the issuance of additional partnership units, or debt offerings. See Note 8—Debt and Interest Expense and Note 16—Noncontrolling Interests for additional information on WGP and WES financing activity.

17. Variable Interest Entities (Continued)

Financial Support Provided to VIEs Concurrent with the closing of its May 2008 initial public offering, WES loaned the Company $260 million in exchange for a 30-year note bearing interest at a fixed annual rate of 6.50%, payable quarterly. The related interest income for WES was $4 million for each of the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2016 and 2015, and $8 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. The note receivable and related interest income isare eliminated in consolidation.
In March 2015, WES acquired the Company’s interest in Delaware Basin JV Gathering LLC. The acquisition was financed using a deferred purchase price obligation which requires a cash payment from WES to the Company due on March 31, 2020. The net present value of this obligation was $193$29 million at March 31,June 30, 2016, and $189 million at December 31, 2015.
In order to reduce WES’s exposure to a majority of the commodity-price risk inherent in certain of their contracts, Anadarko has commodity price swap agreements in place with WES expiring in 2016. WES has recorded a capital contribution from Anadarko in its Consolidated Statement of Equity and Partners’ Capital for the amount by which the swap price exceeds the applicable market price. WES recorded a $4$16 million capital contribution from Anadarko for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2016, and a capital contribution of zero for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2015.

19. Segment Information

Anadarko’s business segments are separately managed due to distinct operational differences and unique technology, distribution, and marketing requirements. The Company’s three reporting segments are oil and gas exploration and production, midstream, and marketing. The oil and gas exploration and production segment explores for and produces oil, condensate, natural gas, and NGLs and plans for the development and operation of the Company’s LNG project in Mozambique. The midstream segment engages in gathering, processing, treating, and transporting Anadarko and third-party oil, condensate, natural-gas, and NGLs production. The midstream reporting segment consists of two operating segments, WES and other midstream, which are aggregated into one reporting segment due to similar financial and operating characteristics. The marketing segment sells much of Anadarko’s oil, condensate, natural-gas, and NGLs production as well as third-party purchased volumes.

19. Segment Information (Continued)

To assess the performance of Anadarko’s operating segments, the chief operating decision maker analyzes Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as income (loss) before income taxes; gains (losses) on divestitures, net; exploration expense; depreciation, depletion, and amortization (DD&A); impairments; interest expense; total (gains) losses on derivatives, net, less net cash from settlement of commodity derivatives; and certain items not related to the Company’s normal operations, less net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. During the periods presented, items not related to the Company’s normal operations included restructuring charges related to the workforce reduction program included in general and administrative expenses, other operating expenses such as Deepwater Horizon settlement and related costs included in other operating expenses, loss on early extinguishment of debt, Tronox-related contingent loss, and certain other nonoperating items included in other (income) expense, net. The Company’s definition of Adjusted EBITDAX excludes gains (losses) on divestitures, net and exploration expense as they are not indicators of operating efficiency for a given reporting period. However, exploration expense is monitored by management as part of costs incurred in exploration and development activities. Similarly, DD&A and impairments are excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX as a measure of segment operating performance because capital expenditures are evaluated at the time capital costs are incurred. Adjusted EBITDAX also excludes interest expense to allow for assessment of segment operating results without regard to Anadarko’s financing methods or capital structure. Total (gains) losses on derivatives, net, less net cash from settlement of commodity derivatives are excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX because these (gains) losses are not considered a measure of asset operating performance. Finally, net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests is excluded from the Company’s measure of Adjusted EBITDAX because it represents earnings that are not attributable to the Company’s common stockholders.
Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDAX provides information useful in assessing the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and that Adjusted EBITDAX is a widely accepted financial indicator of a company’s ability to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures, and make distributions to stockholders. Adjusted EBITDAX as defined by Anadarko may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should be considered in conjunction with net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and other performance measures, such as operating income or cash flows from operating activities. Below is a reconciliation of consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX to income (loss) before income taxes:

OUTLOOK

During 2015, the oil and natural-gas industry experienced a significant decrease in commodity prices driven by a global supply/demand imbalance for oil and an oversupply of natural gas in the United States. The decline inLow commodity prices hashave continued into 2016 and low commodity prices may exist for an extended period. The Company’s revenues, operating results, cash flows from operations, capital spending, and future growth rates are highly dependent on the global commodity-price markets, which affect the value the Company receives from its sales of oil, natural gas, and NGLs.
The Company has continued its disciplined and focused approach in 2016 by emphasizing value over growth, preserving and building value through capital allocation, enhancing operational efficiencies, and continuing an active monetization program. Further, inIn the first quarter of 2016, the Company initiated a workforce reduction program to align the size and composition of Anadarko’s workforce with the Company’s expected future operating and capital plans. Employee notifications related to the workforce reduction program were substantially completecompleted by March 31, 2016, and allJune 30, 2016. All of the $389$407 million of expected restructuring charges will be recognized in 2016, with the exception of approximately $10 million of expense for retirement benefits expected to be recognized in the first quarter of 2017.
The Company estimates a 2016 capital spending range of $3.1 billion to $3.3 billion, including approximately $450 million to $490 million for Western Gas Partners, LP (WES), a publicly traded consolidated subsidiary, excluding any acquisitions made by WES. The Company has currently allocated approximately 65% of its 2016 capital spending budget to development activities, 15% to exploration activities, and 20% to gathering and processing activities and other business activities. The Company currently expects its 2016 capital spending by area to be approximately 40% for the U.S. onshore region and Alaska, 20% for the Gulf of Mexico, 20% for Midstream and other (including WES), and 20% for International.
The Company will continue to evaluate the oil and natural-gas price environments and may adjust its capital spending plans to maintain the appropriate liquidity and financial flexibility. Anadarko expects that its 2016 capital expenditures will be within its cash flows from operations and asset monetizations. As of the time of filing this Form 10-Q,June 30, 2016, the Company closed monetizations totaling $1.3$2.5 billion in 2016.2016, including asset divestitures, the sale of Anadarko’s interest in Springfield Pipeline LLC to WES, the sale of 12.5 million of the Company’s common units in Western Gas Equity Partners, LP (WGP) to the public, and the Company’s conveyance of a limited-term nonparticipating royalty interest in certain of its coal and trona leases to a third party. These monetizations continue Anadarko’s track record of actively managing its portfolio and reaffirm the Company’s commitment toward strengthening its balance sheet.

Liquidity  As of March 31,June 30, 2016, Anadarko had $2.9$1.4 billion of cash on hand plus $5.0 billion of borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facilities.
The Company used proceeds from its $3.0 billion March 2016 Senior Notes issuances to purchase and retire $1.25 billion of its $2.0 billion 6.375% Senior Notes due September 2017 in April 2016 pursuant to a tender offer and to redeem the $1.750 billion 5.950% Senior Notes due September 2016 in May 2016.
Anadarko believes that its cash on hand, anticipated operating cash flows, and proceeds from expected future asset monetizations will be sufficient to fund the Company’s projected 2016 operational and capital programs. In response to the current commodity price environment, the Board of Directors (Board) decreased the quarterly dividend from $0.27 per share to $0.05 per share in February 2016. On an annualized basis, the dividend decrease and the workforce reduction program (without consideration for restructuring charges) are expected to have the effect of providing approximately $800 million of available cash to enhance the Company’s operations and financial flexibility. In AprilDuring the second quarter of 2016, the Company used proceeds from its $3.0 billion March 2016 Senior Notes issuances to purchase and retire $1.250 billion of its $2.0 billion 6.375% Senior Notes due September 2017 pursuant to a tender offer and to redeem its $1.750 billion 5.950% Senior Notes due September 2016. Also during the second quarter of 2016, Anadarko received cash of $881 million from a tax refund related to the income tax benefit associated with the Company’s 2015 tax net operating loss carryback.carryback and sold 12.5 million of its common units in WGP to the public for net proceeds of $476 million. Further, Anadarko enters into strategic derivative positions to reduce commodity-price risk and increase the predictability of cash flows. At March 31,June 30, 2016, derivative positions covered 27%26% of Anadarko’s anticipated oil sales volumes 3%and 1% of its anticipated NGLsnatural-gas sales volumes for 2016, 41% of its anticipated natural-gas sales volumes and 2% of its anticipated NGLs sales volumes for 2017, and 14% of anticipated natural-gas sales volumes for 2016.2018. These instruments had a fair value of $200$45 million as of March 31,June 30, 2016. See Note 6—Derivative Instruments in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Anadarko believes that the actions taken to enhance the Company’s liquidity position coupled with its asset portfolio and operating and financial performance provide the necessary financial flexibility to fund the Company’s current and long-term operations.

Potential for Future Impairments  During 2015, the Company recognized significant impairments of proved oil and gas and midstream properties and impairments of unproved oil and gas properties, primarily as a result of lower forecasted commodity prices and related changes to the Company’s drilling plans. While commodity prices continued to decline during the first quarter of 2016, theThe Company did not recognize any material impairments. At March 31,impairments during the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company’s estimate of undiscounted future cash flows attributable to a certain depletion group with a net book value of approximately $2.1 billion indicated that the carrying amount was expected to be recovered; however, this depletion group may be at risk for impairment if the estimates of future cash flows decline. The Company estimates that, if this depletion group becomes impaired in a future period, the Company could recognize non-cash impairments in that period in excess of $1.0 billion. Italthough it is also reasonably possible that prolonged low or further declines in commodity prices, changes to the Company’s drilling plans in response to lower prices, or increases in drilling or operating costs could result in additionalfuture property impairments.
Anadarko had approximately $5.4 billion of goodwill at March 31, 2016, allocated to the following reporting units: $4.9 billion to oil and gas exploration and production, $414 million to WES gathering and processing, $5 million to WES transportation, and $33 million to other gathering and processing. Goodwill is tested annually in October (or more frequently as circumstances dictate). Although commodity prices have continued to decline in 2016, as of March 31, 2016, the estimated fair value of the oil and gas reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by more than 15% and the other reporting units were not at risk of impairment. However, it is reasonably possible that prolonged low or further declines in commodity prices, decreases in proved reserves, changes in exploration or development plans, significant property impairments, increases in operating or drilling costs, significant changes in regulations, or other negative changes to the economic environment in which Anadarko operates could result in a further reduction in the fair value of the reporting units and increase the potential for a future impairment of goodwill.

The Company reported a loss before income taxes for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2016, and the six months ended June 30, 2015. As a result, items that ordinarily increase or decrease the tax rate will have the opposite effect. The variance from the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, was primarily attributable to the non-deductible Algerian exceptional profits tax for Algerian income tax purposes and the tax impact from foreign operations.

Overview  Anadarko believes that its cash on hand, anticipated operating cash flows, and proceeds from expected future asset monetizations will be sufficient to fund the Company’s projected 2016 operational and capital programs. In addition, the Company has available borrowing capacity to supplement its working capital needs. The Company continuously monitors its liquidity needs and evaluates available funding alternatives in light of current and expected conditions. Anadarko has a variety of funding sources available, including cash on hand, an asset portfolio that provides ongoing cash-flow-generating capacity, opportunities for liquidity enhancement through divestitures and joint-venture arrangements that reduce future capital expenditures, and the Company’s unused credit facilities. In addition, an effective registration statement is available to Anadarko covering the sale of WGP common units owned by the Company.

Effects of Moody’s Credit Rating Downgrade  In February 2016, Standard and Poor’s affirmed Anadarko’s “BBB” long-term debt credit rating and changed the outlook from stable to negative. Later in February 2016, Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) lowered the Company’s long-term debt credit rating from “Baa2” to “Ba1,” which is below investment grade. In March 2016, Fitch Ratings affirmed Anadarko’s “BBB” long-term debt credit rating and changed the outlook from stable to negative.
As a result of Moody’s downgrade of Anadarko’s credit rating to a level that is below investment grade, the Company’s credit thresholds with certain derivative counterparties were reduced and in some cases eliminated, which required the Company to increase the amount of collateral posted with derivative counterparties when the Company’s net trading position is a liability in excess of the contractual threshold. No counterparties have requested termination or full settlement of derivative positions. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features for which a net liability position existed was $1.1$1.3 billion (net of collateral) at March 31,each of June 30, 2016, and $1.3 billion (net of collateral) at December 31, 2015. The amount of cash posted as collateral pursuant to the contractual requirements applicable to derivative instruments with financial institutions was $420$599 million at March 31,June 30, 2016, and $58 million at December 31, 2015.
The Moody’s credit rating downgrade also increases the likelihood ofrequired Anadarko being required to post collateral in the form of letters of credit or cash as financial assurance of its performance under certain contractual arrangements such as pipeline transportation contracts and oil and gas sales contracts. The amount of letters of credit or cash provided as assurance of the Company’s performance under these types of contractual arrangements with respect to credit-risk-related contingent features was $200$274 million at March 31,June 30, 2016, and zero at December 31, 2015.
Also in February 2016, Moody’s downgraded Anadarko’s commercial paper program credit rating, which essentially eliminated the Company’s access to the commercial paper market. As a result, the Company has not issued commercial paper notes since the downgrade.downgrade, but instead has used its 364-day senior unsecured revolving credit facility (364-Day Facility) for short-term working capital requirements, as needed.

Operating Activities

One of the primary sources of variability in the Company’s cash flows from operating activities is the fluctuation in commodity prices, the impact of which Anadarko partially mitigates by entering into commodity derivatives. Sales volume changes also impact cash flow, but historically have not been as volatile as commodity prices. Anadarko’s cash flows from operating activities are also impacted by the costs related to operations and interest payments related to the Company’s outstanding debt.
Anadarko’sAnadarko generated $1.1 billion of cash used infrom operating activities during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2016, was $137which included the $881 million which includedtax refund related to the income tax benefit associated with the Company’s 2015 tax net operating loss carryback, the $159.5 million payment of the CWAClean Water Act (CWA) penalty, and the payment of $79$182 million related to severance costs and retirement benefits in connection with the workforce reduction program. The Company’s cashCash used in operating activities for the same period of 2015 was $4.5$3.3 billion, which included the $5.2 billion Tronox settlement payment. Excluding the impact of the tax refund and payments for the CWA penalty, severance costs and retirement benefits, and the Tronox settlement, operating cash flows for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2016, decreased by $610 million$1.4 billion primarily due to decreased sales revenues primarily fromas a result of lower commodity prices.

Debt Maturities  Anadarko may from time to time seek to retire or purchase its outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for other debt or equity securities in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, the Company’s liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.
At March 31,June 30, 2016, Anadarko’s scheduled debt maturities during 2016 consisted of $1.750 billion of 5.950% Senior Notes due September 2016, which were redeemed in May 2016, and $25$17 million of senior amortizing notes associated with the tangible equity units (TEUs).TEUs.

For additional information on the Company’s debt instruments, such as transactions during the period, years of maturity, and interest rates, see Note 8—Debt and Interest Expense in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Tangible Equity Units  During the second quarter of 2015, Anadarko issued 9.2 million 7.50% TEUs at a stated amount of $50.00 per TEU and raised net proceeds of $445 million. Each TEU is comprised of a prepaid equity purchase contract for WGP common units, subject to Anadarko’s right to elect to issue and deliver shares of Anadarko’s common stock in lieu of WGP common units, and a senior amortizing note due in June 2018, which bears interest at the rate of 1.50% per year. For additional information, see Note 7—Tangible Equity Units in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, Anadarko repaid $8 million of senior amortizing notes associated with the TEUs.

Derivative Instruments  The Company’s derivative instruments are subject to individually negotiated credit provisions that may require collateral of cash or letters of credit depending on the derivatives portfolio valuation versus negotiated credit thresholds. These credit thresholds may also require full or partial collateralization or immediate settlement of the Company’s obligations if certain credit-risk-related provisions are triggered, such as if the Company’s credit rating from major credit rating agencies declines to a level that is below investment grade. Derivative settlements and collateralization are classified as cash flows from operating activities unless the derivatives contain an other-than-insignificant financing element, in which case the settlements and collateralization are classified as cash flows from financing activities. The amount of cash collateral provided by the Company on its interest-rate derivatives with an other-than-insignificant financing element pursuant to the contractual requirements applicable to derivative instruments with financial institutions was $420$592 million at March 31,June 30, 2016, and $58 million at December 31, 2015. Additionally, an interest-rate swap agreement was settled in March 2016, resulting in a cash payment of $193 million.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company’s primary market risks are attributable to fluctuations in energy prices and interest rates. In addition, foreign-currency exchange-rate risk exists due to anticipated foreign-currency denominated payments and receipts. These risks can affect revenues and cash flows, and the Company’s risk-management policies provide for the use of derivative instruments to manage these risks. The types of commodity derivative instruments used by the Company include futures, swaps, options, and fixed-price physical-delivery contracts. The volume of commodity derivatives entered into by the Company is governed by risk-management policies and may vary from year to year. Both exchange and over-the-counter traded derivative instruments may be subject to margin-deposit requirements, and the Company may be required from time to time to deposit cash or provide letters of credit with exchange brokers or counterparties to satisfy these margin requirements. For additional information relating to the Company’s derivative and financial instruments, see Note 6—Derivative Instruments in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

COMMODITY-PRICE RISK  The Company’s most significant market risk relates to prices for oil, natural gas, and NGLs. Management expects energy prices to remain unpredictable and potentially volatile. As energy prices decline or rise significantly, revenues and cash flows are likewise affected. In addition, a non-cash write-down of the Company’s oil and gas properties or goodwill may be required if commodity prices experience a significant decline. Below is a sensitivity analysis for the Company’s commodity-price-related derivative instruments.

Derivative Instruments Held for Non-Trading Purposes  The Company had derivative instruments in place to reduce the price risk associated with future production of 2315 MMBbls of oil, 12349 Bcf of natural gas, and 1 MMBbls of NGLs at March 31,June 30, 2016, with a net derivative asset position of $20045 million. Based on actual derivative contractual volumes, a 10% increase in underlying commodity prices would reduce the fair value of these derivatives by $46116 million, while a 10% decrease in underlying commodity prices would increase the fair value of these derivatives by $33109 million. However, any cash received or paid to settle these derivatives would be substantially offset by the sales value of production covered by the derivative instruments.

Derivative Instruments Held for Trading Purposes  At March 31,June 30, 2016, the Company had a net derivative asset position of $117 million on outstanding derivative instruments entered into for trading purposes. Based on actual derivative contractual volumes, a 10% increase or decrease in underlying commodity prices would not materially impact the Company’s gains or losses on these derivative instruments.

INTEREST-RATE RISK  Borrowings, if any, under each of the 364-Day Facility, the Five-Year Facility, the commercial paper program, the WES RCF, and the WGP RCF are subject to variable interest rates. The balance of Anadarko’s long-term debt on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets has fixed interest rates. The Company has $2.9 billion of obligations based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) that are presented on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets net of preferred investments in two non-controllednoncontrolled entities. These obligations give rise to minimal net interest-rate risk because coupons on the related preferred investments are also LIBOR-based. While a 10% change in LIBOR would not materially impact the Company’s interest cost, it would affect the fair value of outstanding fixed-rate debt.
At March 31,June 30, 2016, the Company had a net derivative liability position of $1.6$1.8 billion related to interest-rate swaps. A 10% increase (decrease) in the three-month LIBOR interest-rate curve would increase (decrease)decrease (increase) the aggregate fair value of outstanding interest-rate swap agreements by $8275 million. However, any change in the interest-rate derivative gain or loss could be substantially offset by changes in actual borrowing costs associated with future debt issuances. For a summary of the Company’s outstanding interest-rate derivative positions, see Note 6—Derivative Instruments in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Table of Contents

FOREIGN-CURRENCY EXCHANGE-RATE RISK  Anadarko’s operating revenues are denominated in U.S. dollars, and the predominant portion of Anadarko’s capital and operating expenditures are also U.S.-dollar-denominated. Exposure to foreign-currency risk generally arises in connection with project-specific contractual arrangements and other commitments. Near-term foreign-currency-denominated expenditures are primarily in Colombian pesos, British pounds sterling, Mozambican meticais, and Brazilian reais.
The Company also has risk related to exchange-rate changes applicable to cash held in escrow pending final determination of the Company’s Brazilian tax liability for its 2008 divestiture of the Peregrino field offshore Brazil, which is currently under consideration by the Brazilian courts. At March 31, 2016, cash of $96 million was held in escrow.
Management periodically engages in various risk-management activities to mitigate a portion of its exposure to foreign-currency exchange-rate risk. A 10% increase or decrease in the foreign-currency exchange rate would not materially impact the Company’s gain or loss related to foreign currency.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Anadarko’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of March 31,June 30, 2016.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in Anadarko’s internal control over financial reporting during the firstsecond quarter of 2016 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

GENERAL  The Company is a defendant in a number of lawsuits and is involved in governmental proceedings and regulatory controls arising in the ordinary course of business, including personal injury and death claims; title disputes; tax disputes; royalty claims; contract claims; contamination claims relating to oil and gas exploration, development, production, transportation, and processing; and environmental claims, including claims involving assets owned by acquired companies and claims involving assets previously sold to third parties and no longer a part of the Company’s current operations. Anadarko is also subject to various environmental-remediation and reclamation obligations arising from federal, state, tribal, and local laws and regulations. While the ultimate outcome and impact on the Company cannot be predicted with certainty, after consideration of recorded expense and liability accruals, management believes that the resolution of pending proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
WGR Operating, LP, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is currently in negotiations with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the state of Wyoming with respect to alleged noncompliance with the leak detection and repair requirements of the Clean Air Act at its Granger, Wyoming facilities. Although management cannot predict the outcome of settlement discussions, it is likely a resolution of this matter will result in a fine or penalty in excess of $100,000.
