NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Note 1 — Basis of Presentation and New Accounting Standards
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Helix Energy Solutions Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Helix”). Unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms “we,” “us” and “our” in this report refer collectively to Helix and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in U.S. dollars have been prepared in accordance with instructions for the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and do not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
On July 1, 2022, we completed our acquisition of all of the equity interests of the Alliance group of companies (collectively “Alliance”). The condensed consolidated financial statements prior to July 1, 2022 reflect only the historical results of Helix. The condensed consolidated financial statements since the completion of the Alliance acquisition have included the results of Helix Alliance using the acquisition method of accounting. See Note 3 for additional information regarding the Alliance acquisition.
The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the related disclosures. Actual results may differ from our estimates. We have made all adjustments, which, unless otherwise disclosed, are of normal recurring nature, that we believe are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive loss, statements of shareholders’ equity and statements of cash flows, as applicable. The operating results for the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.2023. Our balance sheet as of December 31, 20212022 included herein has been derived from the audited balance sheet as of December 31, 20212022 included in our 20212022 Annual Report on Form 10-K (our “2021“2022 Form 10-K”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 20212022 Form 10-K.
Certain reclassifications were made to previously reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto to make them consistent with the current presentation format.
We do not expect any recently issued accounting standards to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows when they become effective.
Note 2 — Company Overview
We are an international offshore energy services company that provides specialty services to the offshore energy industry, with a focus on well intervention, robotics and roboticsdecommissioning operations. Our services are centered on a three-legged business model:model well positioned for a global energy transition:
● | Production maximization — our assets and methodologies are specifically designed to efficiently enhance and extend the lives of existing oil and gas reserves; we also offer an alternative to take over end-of-life reserves in preparation for their abandonment; |
● | Renewable energy support — we are an established global leader in jet trenching and provide specialty support services to offshore wind farm developments, including boulder removal and unexploded ordnance clearance; and |
● | Decommissioning — we |
9
We provide services primarily in deepwater in the Gulf of Mexico, U.S. East Coast, Brazil, North Sea, Asia Pacific and West Africa regions. We have expanded our service capabilities to shallow waters in the Gulf of Mexico shelf with the acquisition of Alliance acquisitiongroup of companies (collectively “Alliance”) on July 1, 2022 (Note 3)., which we re-branded as Helix Alliance. Our North Sea operations and our Gulf of Mexico shelf operations related to ourHelix Alliance acquisition are usually subject to seasonal changes in demand, which generally peaks in the summer months and declines in the winter months. Our services are segregated into four reportable business segments: Well Intervention, Robotics, Production Facilities and our new reporting segment, Shallow Water Abandonment, which was formed in the third quarter 2022 comprising the Helix Alliance business (Note 11).12), and Production Facilities.
7
Our Well Intervention segment provides services enabling our customers to safely access subsea offshore wells for the purpose of performing production enhancement or decommissioning operations, thereby avoiding drilling new wells by extending the useful lives of existing wells and preserving the environment by preventing uncontrolled releases of oil and gas. Our well intervention vessels include the Q4000, the Q5000, the Q7000, the Seawell, the Well Enhancer, and two chartered monohull vessels, the Siem Helix 1 and the Siem Helix 2. Our well intervention equipment includes intervention systems such as intervention riser systems (“IRSs”), subsea intervention lubricators (“SILs”) and the Riserless Open-water Abandonment Module, some of which we provide on a stand-alone basis.
Our Robotics segment provides offshore construction, trenching, seabed clearance, offshore construction and inspection, repair and maintenance (“IRM”) services to both the oil and gas and the renewable energy markets globally, thereby assisting the delivery of affordable and reliable energy and supporting the responsible transition away from a carbon-based economy. Additionally, our Roboticsrobotics services are used in and complement our well intervention services. Our Robotics segment mainly includes remotely operated vehicles (“ROVs”), trenchers, the IROV boulder grab and robotics support vessels under term charters as well as spot vessels as needed. We offer our ROVs, trenchers and the IROV on a stand-alone basis or on an integrated basis with chartered robotics support vessels.
Our Shallow Water Abandonment segment provides services in support of the upstream and midstream industries predominantly in the Gulf of Mexico shelf, including offshore oilfield decommissioning and reclamation, project management, engineered solutions, intervention, maintenance, repair, heavy lift and commercial diving services. Our Shallow Water Abandonment segment includes a diversified fleet of marine assets including liftboats, offshore supply vessels (“OSVs”), dive support vessels (“DSVs”), a heavy lift derrick barge, a crew boat, P&A systems and coiled tubing systems.
Our Production Facilities segment includes the Helix Producer I (the “HP I”), a ship-shaped dynamically positioned floating production vessel, the Helix Fast Response System (the “HFRS”), which combines the HP I, the Q4000 and the Q5000 with certain well control equipment that can be deployed to respond to a well control incident, and our ownership of Droshkymature oil and gas properties. We also have a 20% ownership interest in Independence Hub, LLC (“Independence Hub”) that we account for using the equity method of accounting. In May 2022, we received a net cash distribution of $7.8 million from the sale of the “Independence Hub” platform owned by Independence Hub. In August 2022, we acquired from MP Gulf of Mexico, LLC (“MP GOM”), a joint venture controlled by Murphy Exploration & Production Company – USA, all of MP GOM’s 62.5% interest in Mississippi Canyon Block 734, comprised of three wells and related subsea infrastructure (collectively known as the Thunder Hawk Field), in exchange for the assumption of MP GOM’s abandonment obligationsproperties (Note 12)13). All of our current Production Facilities activities are located in the Gulf of Mexico.
Our Shallow Water Abandonment segment provides services in support of the upstream and midstream industries in the Gulf of Mexico shelf, including offshore oil field decommissioning and reclamation, project management, engineered solutions, intervention, maintenance, repair, heavy lift and commercial diving services. Our Shallow Water Abandonment segment includes a diversified fleet of marine assets including liftboats, offshore supply vessels (“OSVs”), dive support vessels (“DSVs”), a heavy lift derrick barge, a crew boat, P&A systems, coiled tubing systems and other miscellaneous assets.
Note 3 — Alliance Acquisition
On July 1, 2022, we completed our acquisition of all of the equity interests of Alliance. The Alliance acquisition extendsextended our energy transition strategy by adding shallow-watershallow water capabilities into what we expect to be athe growing offshore decommissioning market.
The aggregate preliminary purchase price of the Alliance acquisition was $145.7 million, consisting of $119.0 million withof cash on hand and the estimated fair value of $26.7 million of contingent consideration related to the post-closing earn-out consideration. The earn-out is payable in 2024 to the seller in the Alliance transaction in either cash or shares of our common stock pursuant to the terms of thean Equity Purchase Agreement (the “Equity Purchase Agreement”) dated May 16, 2022 by and among Helix Alliance Decom, LLC, the seller and Helix.2022. The earn-out is not capped and is calculated based on certain financial metrics of the Helix Alliance business for 2022 and 2023 relative to amounts as set forth in the Equity Purchase Agreement.
108
The Alliance acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. The purchase price consideration has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Alliance based upon preliminary estimate of their fair values as of the acquisition date. Fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, using discounted cash flows and other applicable valuation techniques. For certain assets and liabilities, those fair values are consistent with historical carrying values.
The following table summarizes the final purchase consideration and the preliminaryfinal purchase price allocation to estimated fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in thousands):

The purchase price allocation is subject to revision as acquisition-date fair value analyses are completed and if additional information about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date becomes available. The purchase price consideration, as well as the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, will be finalized as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the closing of the Alliance acquisition.
Acquisition and integration costs consist of legal and professional fees as well as costs incurred to integrate Alliance’s operations and systems and to align its financial processes and procedures with those of Helix. Those costs are expensed as incurred and are presented separately from “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Also presented separately are the changes in fair value of the contingent earn-out consideration (Note 16).
The pro forma summary below presents the results of operations as if the Alliance acquisition had occurred on January 1, 20212022 and includes transaction accounting adjustments such as incremental depreciation and amortization expense from acquired tangible and intangible assets, elimination of interest expense on Alliance’s long-term debt that was paid off in conjunction with the acquisition, and integration cost accruals, and tax-related effects. The pro forma summary uses estimates and assumptions based on information available at the time.

Below is a summary of certain components of our indebtedness:
Credit Agreement
On September 30, 2021 we entered into an asset-based credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and Zions Bancorporation and subsequently we entered into amendments to the credit agreement on July 1, 2022 we entered into a first amendment to the credit agreementand June 23, 2023 (collectively, the “Amended ABL Facility”). The Amended ABL Facility provides for an $100a $120 million asset-based revolving credit facility, which matures on September 30, 2026, with a springing maturity 91 days prior to the maturity of any outstanding indebtedness with a principal amount in excess of $50 million. The Amended ABL Facility also permits us to request an increase of the facility by up to $50$30 million, subject to certain conditions.
Commitments under the Amended ABL Facility are comprised of separate U.S. and U.K. revolving credit facility commitments of $65$85 million and $35 million, respectively. The Amended ABL Facility provides funding based on a borrowing base calculation that includes eligible U.S. and U.K. customer accounts receivable and cash, and provides for a $10$20 million sub-limit for the issuance of letters of credit. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, we had no borrowings under the Amended ABL Facility, and our available borrowing capacity under that facility, based on the borrowing base, totaled $81.8$102.5 million, net of $2.2$9.5 million of letters of credit issued under that facility.
14
We and certain of our U.S. and U.K. subsidiaries including Helix Alliance are the current borrowers under the Amended ABL Facility, whose obligations under the Amended ABL Facility are guaranteed by those borrowers and certain other U.S. and U.K. subsidiaries, excluding Cal Dive I – Title XI, Inc. (“CDI Title XI”), Helix Offshore Services Limited and certain other enumerated subsidiaries. Other subsidiaries may be added as guarantors of the facility in the future. The Amended ABL Facility is secured by all accounts receivable and designated deposit accounts of the U.S. borrowers and guarantors, and by substantially all of the assets of the U.K. borrowers and guarantors.
U.S. borrowings under the Amended ABL Facility bear interest at the Term SOFR (also known as CME Term SOFR as administered by CME Group, Inc.) rate plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.00% or at a base rate plus a margin of 0.50% to 1.00%. U.K. borrowings under the Amended ABL Facility denominated in U.S. dollars bear interest at the Term SOFR rate with SOFR adjustment of 0.10% and U.K. borrowings denominated in the British pound bear interest at the SONIA daily rate, each plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.00%. We also pay a commitment fee of 0.375% to 0.50% per annum on the unused portion of the facility.
12
The Amended ABL Facility includes certain limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens on assets, pay dividends and make distributions on equity interests, dispose of assets, make investments, repay certain indebtedness, engage in mergers, and other matters, in each case subject to certain exceptions. The Amended ABL Facility contains customary default provisions which, if triggered, could result in acceleration of all amounts then outstanding. The Amended ABL Facility requires us to satisfy and maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0 if availability is less than the greater of 10% of the borrowing base or $10$12 million. The Amended ABL Facility also requires us to maintain a pro forma minimum excess availability of $20$30 million for the 91 days prior to the maturity of each of our outstanding convertible senior notes.notes and for any portion of the Alliance earn-out payment to be made in cash.
The Amended ABL Facility also (i) limits the amount of permitted debt for the deferred purchase price of property not to exceed $50 million, (ii) establishes an excess availability requirement for the portion of any post-closing earn-out consideration related to our acquisition of Alliance that will be paid in cash (Note 3), and (iii)(ii) provides for potential pricing adjustments based on specific metrics and performance targets determined by us and Bank of America, as agent with respect to the Amended ABL Facility, related to environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) changes implemented by us in our business.
Convertible Senior Notes Due 2022 (“2022 Notes”)

2026 Capped Calls
In connection with the 2026 Notes offering, we entered into capped call transactions (the “2026 Capped Calls”) with three separate option counterparties. The 2026 Capped Calls are for an aggregate of 28,675,900 shares of our common stock, which corresponds to the shares into which the 2026 Notes are initially convertible. The capped call shares are subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. Each capped call option has an initial strike price of approximately $6.97 per share, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2026 Notes, and an initial cap price of approximately $8.42 per share. The strike and cap prices are subject to certain adjustments. The 2026 Capped Calls are intended to offset some or all of the potential dilution to Helix common shares caused by any conversion of the 2026 Notes up to the cap price. The 2026 Capped Calls can be settled in either net shares or cash at our option in components commencing December 15, 2025 and ending February 12, 2026, which could be extended under certain circumstances.
The 2026 Capped Calls are subject to either adjustment or termination upon the occurrence of specified extraordinary events affecting Helix, including a merger, tender offer, nationalization, insolvency or delisting. In addition, certain events may result in a termination of the 2026 Capped Calls, including changes in law, insolvency filings and hedging disruptions. The 2026 Capped Calls are recorded at their aggregate cost of $10.6 million as a reduction to common stock in the shareholders’ equity section of our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

MARAD Debt
In 2005, Helix’s subsidiary CDI – Title XI issued its U.S. Government Guaranteed Ship Financing Bonds, Q4000 Series, to refinance the construction financing originally granted in 2002 of the Q4000 vessel (the “MARAD Debt”). The MARAD Debt is guaranteed by the U.S. government pursuant to Title XI of the Merchant Marine Act of 1936, administered by the Maritime Administration (“MARAD”). The obligation of CDI Title XI to reimburse MARAD in the event CDI Title XI fails to repay the MARAD Debt is collateralized by the Q4000 and is guaranteed 50% by us. In addition, we have agreed to bareboat charter the Q4000 from CDI Title XI for so long as the MARAD Debt remains outstanding. The MARAD Debt is payable in equal semi-annual installments, matures in February 2027 and bears interest at a rate of 4.93%. The agreements relating to the bonds and the terms and conditions of our obligations to MARAD in respect of the MARAD Debt are typical for U.S. government-guaranteed ship financing transactions, including customary restrictions on incurring additional liens on the Q4000 and trading restrictions with respect to the vessel as well as working capital requirements.
17
Other
In accordance with the Amended ABL Facility, the 2023 Notes, the 2026 Notes and the MARAD Debt, we are required to comply with certain covenants, including minimum liquidity and a springing fixed charge coverage ratio (applicable under certain conditions that are currently not applicable) with respect to the Amended ABL Facility and the maintenance of net worth, working capital and debt-to-equity requirements with respect to the MARAD Debt. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, we were in compliance with these covenants.
We previously had a credit agreement (and the amendments made thereafter, collectively the “Credit Agreement”) with a group of lenders led by Bank of America. The Credit Agreement was comprised of a term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with a maximum availability of $175 million and had a maturity date of December 31, 2021. Concurrent with our entering into the ABL Facility on September 30, 2021, the Credit Agreement was terminated, the $28 million remaining balance of the Term Loan was repaid in full and the letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility were transferred to the ABL Facility. We had no borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.
We previously had a credit agreement with a syndicated bank lending group for a term loan (the “Nordea Q5000 Loan”) to finance the construction of the Q5000. The loan was secured by the Q5000 and its charter earnings. In January 2021, we repaid the remaining principal amount of $53.6 million.

Note 7 — Income Taxes
We operate in multiple jurisdictions with complex tax laws subject to interpretation and judgment. We believe that our application of such laws and the tax impact thereof are reasonable and fairly presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2023, we recognized income tax expense of $3.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 31.8% and 40.1%, respectively. The effective tax rates for these periods were higher than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to certain non-deductible expenses and non-creditable foreign income taxes. For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, we recognized income tax expense of $6.5$1.4 million and $10.1$3.6 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (53.0)(5.1)% and (12.5)(5.2)%, respectively. For thesethe three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, our aggregate tax expense was greater than the aggregate tax benefit of our losses, primarily due to non-creditable foreign income and deemed profit taxes as well as unbenefited tax losses, resulting in negative effective tax rates. Furthermore, our mix of earnings was impacted by the acquisition of Alliance, resulting in increased U.S. earnings and tax expense as compared to the same periods in 2021. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021, we recognized income tax benefit of $1.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 5.3% and 7.5%, respectively. These variances were primarily attributable to the earnings mix between our higher and lower tax rate jurisdictions as well as losses for which no financial statement benefits have been recognized.
Note 8 — Share Repurchase Programs
On February 20, 2023, we announced that our Board of Directors (our “Board”) authorized a new share repurchase program (the “2023 Repurchase Program”) under which we are authorized to repurchase up to $200 million issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. Concurrent with the authorization of the 2023 Repurchase Program, our Board revoked the prior authorization to repurchase shares of our common stock in an amount equal to any equity issued to our employees, officers and directors under our share-based compensation plans, including share-based awards under our existing long-term incentive plans and shares issued to our employees under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (Note 11).
1815
The 2023 Repurchase Program has no set expiration date. Repurchases under the 2023 Repurchase Program are expected to be made through open market purchases in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, privately negotiated transactions or plans, instructions or contracts established under Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. The manner, timing and amount of any purchase will be determined by management based on an evaluation of market conditions, stock price, liquidity and other factors. The 2023 Repurchase Program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be modified or superseded at any time at our discretion. The purchase of shares by us under the 2023 Repurchase Program is at our discretion and subject to prevailing financial and market conditions. Any repurchased shares are expected to be cancelled. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased a total of 1,410,000 shares of our common stock for approximately $10.1 million or an average of $7.13 per share pursuant to the 2023 Repurchase Program.
Note 89 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Disaggregation of Revenue
Our revenues are primarily derived from short-term and long-term service contracts with customers. Our service contracts generally contain either provisions for specific time, material and equipment charges that are billed in accordance with the terms of such contracts (dayrate contracts) or lump sum payment provisions (lump sum contracts). We record revenues net of taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities. Contracts are classified as long-term if all or part of the contract is to be performed over a period extending beyond 12 months from the effective date of the contract. Long-term contracts may include multi-year agreements whereby the commitment for services in any one year may be short in duration. The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue by contract duration (in thousands):

Contract Balances
Accounts receivable are recognized when our right to consideration becomes unconditional.
Contract assets are rights to consideration in exchange for services that we have provided to a customer when those rights are conditioned on our future performance. Contract assets generally consist of (i) demobilization fees recognized ratably over the contract term but invoiced upon completion of the demobilization activities and (ii) revenue recognized in excess of the amount billed to the customer for lump sum contracts when the cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized. Contract assets are reflected in “Other current assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (Note 4). Contract assets were $0.7$7.1 million at Septemberas of June 30, 20222023 and $0.6$6.3 million atas of December 31, 2021.2022. We had no credit losses on our contract assets for the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 2021.2022.
19
Contract liabilities are obligations to provide future services to a customer for which we have already received, or have the unconditional right to receive, the consideration for those services from the customer. Contract liabilities may consist of (i) advance payments received from customers, including upfront mobilization fees allocated to a single performance obligation and recognized ratably over the contract term and/or (ii) amounts billed to the customer in excess of revenue recognized for lump sum contracts when the cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized. Contract liabilities are reflected as “Deferred revenue,” a component of “Accrued liabilities” and “Other non-current liabilities” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (Note 4). Contract liabilities totaled $20.8$23.6 million at Septemberas of June 30, 20222023 and $8.7$10.0 million atas of December 31, 2021.2022. Revenue recognized for the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 included $2.7$9.4 million and $7.0$8.0 million, respectively, that were included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of each period. Revenue recognized for the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 included $4.0$3.5 million and $6.7and $5.8 million, respectively, that were included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of each period.
We report the net contract asset or contract liability position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period.
Performance Obligations
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022, $758.42023, $910.1 million related to unsatisfied performance obligations was expected to be recognized as revenue in the future, with $162.0$454.5 million, $426.4$453.1 million and $170.0$2.5 million in 20222023, 20232024 and 20242025, respectively. These amounts include fixed consideration and estimated variable consideration for both wholly and partially unsatisfied performance obligations, including mobilization and demobilization fees. These amounts are derived from the specific terms of our contracts, and the expected timing for revenue recognition is based on the estimated start date and duration of each contract according to the information known at SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023.
For the three- and nine-monththree-and six-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, revenues recognized from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods were immaterial.
Contract Fulfillment Costs
Contract fulfillment costs consist of costs incurred in fulfilling a contract with a customer. Our contract fulfillment costs primarily relate to costs incurred for mobilization of personnel and equipment at the beginning of a contract and costs incurred for demobilization at the end of a contract. Mobilization costs are deferred and amortized ratably over the contract term (including anticipated contract extensions) based on the pattern of the provision of services to which the contract fulfillment costs relate. Demobilization costs are recognized when incurred at the end of the contract. Deferred contract costs are reflected as “Deferred costs,” a component of “Other current assets” and “Other assets, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (Note 4). Our deferred contract costs totaled $18.5$38.2 million at Septemberas of June 30, 20222023 and $3.3$20.4 million atas of December 31, 2021.2022. For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, we recorded $8.5$14.4 million and $19.7$19.1 million, respectively, related to amortization of these deferred contract costs. For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we recorded $11.7$6.6 million and $31.6$11.2 million, respectively, related to amortization of these deferred contract costs. There were no associated impairment losses for any period presented.

Note 910 — Earnings Per Share
We have shares of restricted stock issued and outstanding that are currently unvested. Because holders of shares of unvested restricted stock are entitled to the same liquidation and dividend rights as the holders of our unrestricted common stock, we are required to compute basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) under the two-class method in periods in which we have earnings. Under the two-class method, net income or loss attributable to common shareholders for each period is allocated based on the participation rights of both common shareholders and the holders of any participating securities as if earnings for the respective periods had been distributed. For periods in which we have a net loss we do not use the two-class method as holders of our restricted shares are not obligated to share in such losses.
Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average shares of our common stock outstanding. The calculation of diluted EPS is similar to that for basic EPS, except that the denominator includes dilutive common stock equivalents and the numerator excludes the effects of dilutive common stock equivalents, if any. The computations of the numerator (earnings or loss) and denominator (shares) to derive the basic and diluted EPS amounts presented on the face of the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations are as follows (in thousands):

We had net losses for the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022 and 2021.2022. Accordingly, our diluted EPS calculation for these periods excluded any assumed exercise or conversion of common stock equivalents. These common stock equivalents were excluded because they were deemed to be anti-dilutive, meaning their inclusion would have reduced the reported net loss per share in the applicable periods. Shares that otherwise would have been included in the diluted per share calculations assuming we had earnings are as follows (in thousands):

Compensation cost for restricted stock is the product of the grant date fair value of each share and the number of shares granted and is recognized over the applicable vesting period on a straight-line basis. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur. No restricted stock awards have been granted to our executive officers or other employees in 2022.since 2020. For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022, $0.52023, $0.3 million and $1.9$0.6 million, respectively, were recognized as share-based compensation related to restricted stock. For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, $0.8 million and $2.5$1.4 million, respectively, were recognized as share-based compensation related to restricted stock.

Our performance share units (“PSUs”) that were granted prior to 2021 are to bewere settled solely in shares of our common stock and arewere accounted for as equity awards. Those PSUs, which contain a service and a market condition, are based on the performance of our common stock against peer group companies. Our PSUs granted beginning in January 2021 may be settled in either cash or shares of our common stock upon vesting at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of our Board and have been accounted for as equity awards. Those PSUs consist of two components: (i) 50% based on the performance of our common stock against peer group companies, which component contains a service and a market condition, and (ii) 50% based on cumulative total Free Cash Flow, which component contains a service and a performance condition. Free Cash Flow is calculated as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sale of assets. Our PSUs cliff vest at the end of a three-year period with the maximum amount of the award being 200% of the original PSU awards and the minimum amount being zero.
For PSUs that havewith a service and a market condition andthat are accounted for as equity awards, compensation cost is measured based on the grant date estimated fair value determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model and subsequently recognized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. For PSUs that havewith a service and a performance condition andthat are accounted for as equity awards, compensation cost is initially measured based on the grant date fair value. Cumulative compensation cost is subsequently adjusted at the end of each reporting period to reflect the current estimation of achieving the performance condition. For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022, $1.52023, $1.2 million and $3.6$2.4 million, respectively, were recognized as share-based compensation related to equity PSUs. For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021, $1.02022, $1.1 million and $3.1$2.1 million, respectively, were recognized as share-based compensation related to equity PSUs. In January 2022,2023, based on the performance of our common stock price as compared to our performance peer group over a three-year period, 559,150 equity369,938 PSUs granted in 20192020 vested at 157%77%, representing 876,469285,778 shares of our common stock with a total market value of $3.2$3.6 million.
22
Our restricted stock units (“RSUs”)currently outstanding RSUs may be settled in either cash or shares of our common stock upon vesting at the discretion of the Compensation Committee and have been accounted for as liability awards. Liability RSUs are measured at their estimated fair value atbased on the closing share price of our common stock as of each balance sheet date, and subsequent changes in the fair value of the awards are recognized in earnings for the portion of the award for which the requisite service period has elapsed. Cumulative compensation cost for vested liability RSUs equals the actual payout value upon vesting. For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022, $0.72023, $1.2 million and $1.5$2.4 million, respectively, were recognized as compensation cost. Compensation cost recognized for the three-month period ended September 30, 2021 was minimal. For the nine-month periodthree- and six-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021, $0.42022, $0.2 million wasand $0.8 million, respectively, were recognized as compensation cost.
In 20222023 and 2021,2022, we granted fixed-value cash awards of $5.4$6.0 million and $3.5$5.5 million, respectively, to select management employees under the 2005 Incentive Plan. The value of these cash awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over a vesting period of three years. For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022, $1.12023, $1.2 million and $3.2$2.4 million, respectively, were recognized as compensation cost. For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021, $1.02022, $1.1 million and $3.0$2.1 million, respectively, were recognized as compensation cost.
Defined Contribution PlanPlans
We sponsor a defined contribution 401(k) retirement plan. Our discretionary contributions areplan (the “401(k) Plan”) in the form of cash and consist of a 50% match of each participant’sU.S. as well as various other defined contribution up to 5% of the participant’s salary. Our discretionary contributions were suspended for 2021 and re-activated beginning January 2022. Forplans globally. During the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2023, we made contributions to our defined contribution plans totaling $1.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively. During the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, we made $0.4contributions to our defined contribution plans totaling $0.7 million and $1.1$1.5 million, respectively, in contributions to the 401(k) plan.respectively.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We have an employee stock purchase plan (the “ESPP”). As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022, 1.42023, 1.2 million shares were available for issuance under the ESPP. The ESPP currently has a purchase limit of 260 shares per employee per purchase period.
For more information regarding our employee benefit plans, including the 2005 Incentive Plan, the 401(k) Plan and the ESPP, see Note 1413 to our 20212022 Form 10-K.
Note 11 — Business Segment Information
Through the second quarter 2022, we had three reportable business segments: Well Intervention, Robotics and Production Facilities. Beginning in the third quarter 2022 as a result of the Alliance acquisition (Note 3), we formed a new reportable business segment: Shallow Water Abandonment. Our U.S., U.K. and Brazil Well Intervention operating segments are aggregated into the Well Intervention segment for financial reporting purposes. Our Well Intervention segment provides services enabling our customers to safely access offshore wells for the purpose of performing production enhancement or decommissioning operations primarily in the Gulf of Mexico, Brazil, the North Sea and West Africa. Our well intervention vessels include the Q4000, the Q5000, the Q7000, the Seawell, the Well Enhancer, and the Siem Helix 1 and Siem Helix 2 chartered vessels. Our well intervention equipment includes intervention systems, some of which we provide on a stand-alone basis. Our Robotics segment provides offshore construction, trenching, seabed clearance and IRM services to both the oil and gas and the renewable energy markets globally. Additionally, our Robotics services are used in and complement our well intervention services. Our Robotics segment mainly includes ROVs, trenchers and robotics support vessels under term charters as well as spot vessels as needed. Our Production Facilities segment includes the HP I, the HFRS and our ownership of oil and gas properties (Note 12). Our Shallow Water Abandonment segment provides services in support of the upstream and midstream industries in the Gulf of Mexico shelf, including offshore oil field decommissioning and reclamation, project management, engineered solutions, intervention, maintenance, repair, heavy lift and commercial diving services. Our Shallow Water Abandonment segment operates a diversified fleet of marine assets including liftboats, OSVs, DSVs, a heavy lift derrick barge, a crew boat, P&A systems, coiled tubing systems and other miscellaneous assets. All material intercompany transactions between the segments have been eliminated.

Note 1213 — Asset Retirement Obligations
AssetOur asset retirement obligations (“AROs”) relate to mature offshore oil and gas properties that we acquired with the intention to perform decommissioning work at the end of their life cycles. AROs are recorded initially at fair value and consist of estimated costs for subsea infrastructure decommissioning and P&A activities associated with our oil and gas properties. The estimated costs are discounted to present value using a credit-adjusted risk-free discount rate. After its initial recognition, an ARO liability is increased for the passage of time as accretion expense, which is a component of our depreciation and amortization expense. An ARO liability may also change based on revisions in estimated costs and/or timing to settle the obligations.
Our existing AROs relate to our Droshky oil and gas properties thatIn August 2022, we acquiredacqured from Marathon Oil CorporationMP Gulf of Mexico, LLC (“Marathon Oil”MP GOM”) in January 2019. In connection with assuming the P&A obligations related to those assets, we are entitled to receive agreed-upon amounts from Marathon Oil as the P&A work is completed. Our ARO additions in the third quarter 2022 and, a corresponding assetjoint venture controlled by Murphy Exploration & Production Company – USA, all of $23.6 million relate to MP GOM’s 62.5% interest in the Thunder Hawk Field, that we acquired in August 2022exchange for the assumption of MP GOM’s abandonment obligations (initially estimated at $23.6 million).

Contingencies and Claims
Our contingent consideration liability resulting from the Alliance acquisition is subject to risk, through the remainder of the contingency period, which ends on December 31, 2023, as a result of changes in our probability weighted discounted cash flow model, which is based on internal forecasts, and changes in weighted average discount rate, which is derived from market data.
We believe that there are currently no other contingencies that would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Litigation
We are involved in various legal proceedings, some involving claims under the General Maritime Laws of the United States and the Merchant Marine Act of 1920 (commonly referred to as the Jones Act). In addition, from time to time we receive other claims, such as contract and employment-related disputes, in the normal course of business.
2522
We are currently involved in several lawsuits filed by current and former offshore employees seeking overtime compensation. These suits are brought as collective actions and are in various stages of litigation.litigation in federal district courts. We appealed one such lawsuit to the United States Supreme Court, which issued a ruling adverse to us in the first quarter 2023 that has implications for similar lawsuits in which we are involved. In one sucha separate lawsuit, during the third quarter 20212022 the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit (the “Fifth Circuit”) issued aan adverse ruling adversethat is likely to us that may have implications for some of the other cases in which we are involved, as well as the way offshore personnel are compensated throughout our industry. We further appealed that matter to the United States Supreme Court, which heard oral arguments in October 2022. In another such lawsuit, during the third quarter 2022 the Fifth Circuit issued a separate adverse ruling that may also have implications for some of the other casessimilar lawsuits in which we are involved. We continue to vigorously defend these lawsuits. Notwithstandinglawsuits, and notwithstanding that we believe we retain valid defenses, we have established a liability in each of these matters. The final outcome of these matters remains uncertain, and the ultimate liability to us could be more or less than the liability established.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Our Business
We are an international offshore energy services company that provides specialty services to the offshore energy industry, with a focus on well intervention, robotics and roboticsfull-field decommissioning operations. Our services are centered on a three-legged business model well positioned for a global energy transition by maximizing production of remainingexisting oil and gas reserves, supporting renewable energy developments and decommissioning end-of-life oil and gas reserves and supporting renewable energy developments.fields. Our well intervention fleet includes seven purpose-built well intervention vessels and 1012 intervention systems. Our robotics equipment includes 4039 work-class ROVs, fourseven trenchers one ROVDrill and onethe IROV boulder grab. We charter robotics support vessels on both long-term, short-term, flexible and spot bases to facilitate our ROV and trenching operations. Our well intervention and robotics operations are geographically dispersed throughout the world. Our Production Facilities segment includes the HP I, the HFRS and our ownership of mature oil and gas properties including the recently acquired interest in the Thunder Hawk Field.properties. On July 1, 2022, we completed our acquisition of Alliance and in the third quarter 2022 formed a new reporting segment in the third quarter 2022 comprised of the Helix Alliance business. Our new Shallow Water Abandonment segment includes 10nine liftboats, six OSVs, three DSVs, one 1760T heavy lift derrick barge, one crew boat, 1415 marketable P&A systems (with the ability to scale up to 20 systems) and six coiled tubing systems.
26
Economic Outlook and Industry Influences
Demand for our services is primarily influenced by the condition of the oil and gas and the renewable energy markets and, in particular, the willingness of offshore energy companies to spend on operational activities and capital projects. The performance of our business is largely affected by the prevailing market prices for oil and natural gas, which are impacted by domestic and global economic conditions, hydrocarbon production and capacity, geopolitical issues, weather, global health, and various other factors.
Oil prices reached ten-year highs during the middle of 2022 and gas priceshave since experienced increased volatility and moderate declines from recent highs in the first half of 2022. Meanwhile, globaland volatility. Global demand continuedfor oil continues to recover andas supply was disruptedhas been impacted by regional conflicts. The outlook for sustained high oil prices should leadconflicts and decisions by members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC) and other non-OPEC producer nations (collectively with OPEC members, “OPEC+”) related to higherproduction. We expect the current market conditions will maintain continued customer spending for the industry. However, despiteDespite the current strong commodity price environment, there are broadremain headwinds to commodity price stability. These headwinds includestability, including those regional conflicts, further OPEC+ decisions, high inflation and in particular governments’ and central banks’ efforts to control inflation, which may taper economic growth, ongoing COVID-related uncertainties, various governmental and customer ESG initiatives and continued shifting of resource allocation to renewable energy.energy, and the impact of market confidence in light of turmoil within the banking industry. We expect these factors will continue to contribute to commodity price volatility and maywith the potential to temper customer spending for oil and gas projects.
We are subject to the effects of changing prices. Inflation rates have been relatively low and stable over the previous three decades; however, inflation rates have risen significantly since 2021. Although we may be able to mitigate our exposure to price increases through the rates we charge, we bear the costs of operating and maintaining our assets, including labor and material costs as well as recertification and dry dock costs. While the cost outlook is not certain, we believe that we can manage these inflationary pressures by through the rates we charge and by actively pursuing internal cost management efforts. However, competitive market pressures may affect our ability to recoup these price increases through our rates, which may result in reductions in our operating margins and cash flows. The recent high inflation rates seen in various major economies have resulted in central banks’ tightening of monetary policies. These concerns have contributed to stock market volatility as well as higher interest rates, which could provide a strained macroeconomic outlook and in turn affect energy markets.
We maximize production of existing oil and gas reserves for our customers primarily in our Well Intervention segment. Historically, drilling rigs have been the asset class used for offshore well intervention work, and rig day rates are a pricing indicator for our services. Our customers have used drilling rigs on existing long-term contracts (rig overhang) to perform well intervention work instead of new drilling activities. Current volumes of work, rig utilization rates, the day rates quoted by drilling rig contractors and existing rig overhang affect the utilization and/or rates we can achieve for our assets and services.
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in new market dynamics and challenges to us, including contributing significantly to oil and gas price volatility and increased costs related to our supply chain, logistics and human capital resources. While the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the duration of its impact on economic activity, remains unknown, we expect such impact may continue into the foreseeable future, including affecting our customers’ willingness to commit to future spending, limiting access to and use of capital, disrupting supply chains and increasing costs, and negatively affecting human capital resources.
Over the near-term, aswe are seeing oil and gas companies evaluate their budgetary spend allocations, we expect they may be weighted towards short-cycle production enhancement of existing wells rather thaninvesting in new long-cycle exploration projects asin addition to maintaining and/or increasing production from their existing reserves. As historically production enhancement through well intervention is less expensive per incremental barrel of oil than exploration. Over the longer term,exploration, we continue to expect oil and gas companies to increasinglycontinue to focus on optimizing production of their existing subsea wells. Moreover, as the subsea tree base expands and ages and customers shift resources to renewable energy, the demand for P&A services should persist. Our well intervention and robotics operations service the lifecycle of an oil and gas field and provide P&A services at the end of the life of a field as required by governmental regulations, and we believe that we have a competitive advantage in performing these services efficiently.
30
We expect the fundamentals for our business will remain favorable over the longer term as the need to prolong well life in oil and gas production and safely decommission end-of-life wells areis the primary driversdriver of demand for our production enhancement services. This expectation is based on multiple factors, including (1) maintaining the optimal production of a well through enhancement is fundamental to maximizing the overall economics of well production; (2) our services offer commercially viable alternatives for reducing the finding and development costs of reserves as compared to new drilling; and (3) extending the production of offshore wells not only maximizes a well’s production economics but also enables the financial benefit of delaying P&A costs, which can be substantial.
We support the energy transition to renewables through our services in offshore wind farm developments, primarily including subsea cable trenching and burial as well as seabed clearance and preparation services. Demand for our services in the renewable energy market is affected by various factors, including the pace of consumer shift towards renewable energy sources, global electricity demand, technological advancements that increase the productiongeneration and/or reduce the cost of renewable energy, expansion of offshore renewable energy projects to deeper water and other regions, and government subsidies for renewable energy projects.
We are subjectexpect growth in our renewables services as the energy market transitions to continued renewable energy developments.
27
Once end-of-life oil and gas wells have depleted their production, we decommission wells and infrastructure in our Well Intervention and Shallow Water Abandonment segments. As the effectssubsea tree base expands and ages and customers shift resources to renewable energy, the demand for P&A services should persist. Our operations service the life cycle of changing prices. Inflation rates have been relatively lowan oil and stable overgas field and provide P&A and decommissioning services at the previous three decades; however, in 2021 due in part to supply chain disruptions and the effectsend of the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation rates began to rise significantlylife of a field as required by governmental regulations, and remained high through the second quarter 2022. Although we are able to mitigate our exposure to price increases through the rates we charge, we bear the costs of operating and maintaining our assets, including labor and material costs as well as recertification and dry dock costs. While the cost outlook is not certain, we believe that we can managehave a competitive advantage in performing these inflationary pressures by introducing appropriate salesservices efficiently.
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in unprecedented market dynamics and challenges to us, including contributing significantly to oil and gas price adjustmentsvolatility and by actively pursuing internal cost reduction efforts. However, competitive market pressures may affectincreased costs related to our abilitysupply chain, logistics and human capital resources. Although the World Health Organization ended the global public health emergency status for COVID-19 in May 2023, we could experience either a resurgence of COVID-19 or a new pandemic that could significantly impact economic activity, our customers’ willingness to recoup these price increases through the rates we charge, which may result in reductions in our operating marginscommit to future spending, access to and cash flows in the future. The recent highuse of capital, supply chains, inflation rates seen in various major economies have caused concerns for central banks’ tightening of monetary policies. These concerns have contributed to stock market volatility as well as higher interest rates, which, combined with ongoing regional conflicts and unrest and continued COVID-related disruptions throughout the globe, could provide a strained macroeconomic outlook and in turn affect energy markets.human capital resources.
Backlog
We define backlog as firm commitments represented by signed contracts. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, our consolidated backlog totaled $758approximately $910 million, of which $162$455 million is expected to be performed over the remainder of 2022.2023. Our contractvarious contracts with Shell globally, our contracts with Trident Energy Do Brasil LTDA. to provide P&A services offshoreand Petrobras in Brazil, our contracts with the Siem Helix1 chartered vessel, our contract with Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. (“Petrobras”) to provide well intervention services offshore Brazil with the Siem Helix2 chartered vessel, our well intervention contract with Shell Offshore Inc. for the Q5000Repsol globally, and our fixed fee agreement for the HP I in the Gulf of Mexico represented approximately 58%57% of our total backlog as of SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023. Backlog is not necessarily a reliable indicator of revenues derived from our contracts as services are often added but may sometimes be subtracted; contracts may be renegotiated, deferred, canceled and in many cases modified while in progress; and reduced rates, fines and penalties may be imposed by our customers. Furthermore, our contracts are in certain cases cancelable without penalty. If there are cancellation fees, the amount of those fees can be substantially less than amounts reflected in backlog.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined by the SEC as a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future performance, financial position or cash flows that includes or excludes amounts from the most directly comparable measure under GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Users of this financial information should consider the types of events and transactions that are excluded from these measures.
31
We measureevaluate our operating performance and financial condition based on EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow.Flow and Net Debt. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow and Net Debt are non-GAAP financial measures that are commonly used but are not recognized accounting terms under GAAP. We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow and Net Debt to monitor and facilitate internal evaluation of the performance of our business operations, to facilitate external comparison of our business results to those of others in our industry, to analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future investments and acquisitions, to plan and evaluate operating budgets, and in certain cases, to report our results to the holders of our debt as required by our debt covenants. We believe that our measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow and Net Debt provide useful information to the public regarding our operating performance and ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures and may help our investors understand and compare our results to other companies that have different financing, capital and tax structures. Other companies may calculate their measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow and Net Debt differently from the way we do, which may limit their usefulness as comparative measures. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow and Net Debt should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, but instead are supplemental to, income from operations, net income, cash flows from operating activities, or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
28
We define EBITDA as earnings before income taxes, net interest expense, gainsgain or lossesloss on extinguishment of long-term debt, gains and losses on equity investments, net other income or expense, and depreciation and amortization expense. Non-cash impairment losses on goodwill and other long-lived assets and non-cash gains and losses on equity investments are also added back if applicable. To arrive at our measure of Adjusted EBITDA, we exclude the gain or loss on disposition of assets, acquisition and integration costs, the change in fair value of contingent consideration and the general provision (release) for current expected credit losses, if any. We define Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sale of assets. Net Debt is calculated as long-term debt including current maturities of long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. In the following reconciliation,reconciliations, we provide amounts as reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements unless otherwise noted.
The reconciliation of our net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is as follows (in thousands):

Long-Term Debt
Long-term debt in the table above is net of unamortized debt issuance costs and excludes current maturities of $38.2$38.5 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and $42.9$38.2 million at December 31, 2021.2022. See Note 6 for information relating to our long-term debt.
Liquidity
We define liquidity as cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, plus available capacity under our credit facility. Our liquidity at SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 included $162.3$182.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and $81.8$102.5 million of available borrowing capacity under the Amended ABL Facility (Note 6). Our liquidity at December 31, 2022 included $186.6 million of cash and cash equivalents and $98.1 million of available borrowing capacity under the Amended ABL Facility and excluded $2.5 million of restricted cash. Our liquidity at December 31, 2021 included $253.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and $51.1 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility and excluded $73.6 million of short-term project related restricted cash. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, we had approximately $21.7$16.2 million in Nigerian Naira,naira, which ishas been subject to currency exchange controls established by the Central Bank of Nigeria. Those exchange controls have to date restrictedlimited our ability to convert our Nigerian Nairanaira into U.S. dollars.
The COVID-19 pandemic impacted our operations and our revenues. We responded by deferring or reducing planned capital expenditures and operating costs during the past two years. This spending is returning with our increased activity. Furthermore, we fully redeemed the $35 million remaining principal amount of the 2022 Notes plus accrued interest by delivering cash upon maturity on May 1, 2022, and we have other term debt maturities during 2022 that we intend to settle in cash. Additionally on July 1,During 2022, we completed our acquisition of Alliance for $119.0 million cash at closing plus post-closing earn-out consideration payable to the sellersaw an improvement in the Alliance transactionmarkets we serve as evidenced by increases in 2024our revenues and gross profit. We expect continued improvements in our operating performance, increases in our cash position and high availability on the event the Helix Alliance business achieves certain financial metrics in 2022 and 2023 (Note 3).Amended ABL Facility. We believe that our cash on hand, internally generated cash flows and availability under the Amended ABL Facility will be sufficient to fund our operations and service our debt over at least the next 12 months.
A period of weak industry activity may make it difficult to comply with the covenants and other restrictions in our debt agreements. Our failure to comply with the covenants and other restrictions could lead to an event of default. Decreases in our borrowing base may limit our ability to fully access the Amended ABL Facility. We currently do not anticipate borrowing under the Amended ABL Facility other than for the issuance of letters of credit.
On February 20, 2023, we announced that our Board authorized a new share repurchase program under which we are authorized to repurchase up to $200 million issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. The 2023 Repurchase Program has no set expiration date. Repurchases under the 2023 Repurchase Program are expected to be made through open market purchases in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, privately negotiated transactions or plans, instructions or contracts established under Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. The manner, timing and amount of any purchase will be determined by management based on an evaluation of market conditions, stock price, liquidity and other factors. The 2023 Repurchase Program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be modified or superseded at any time at our discretion. The purchase of shares by us under the 2023 Repurchase Program is at our discretion and subject to prevailing financial and market conditions. Any repurchased shares are expected to be cancelled. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased a total of 1,410,000 shares of our common stock for approximately $10.1 million pursuant to the 2023 Repurchase Program.

Operating Activities
The decreaseincrease in our operating cash flows for the nine-monthsix-month period ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 as compared to the same period in 20212022 primarily reflects lowerhigher earnings, offset in part by higher regulatory recertification costs for our vessels and systems and negative changes in nethigher working capital.capital outflows. Regulatory recertification spend on our vessels and systems amounted to $30.3$41.3 million and $7.1$15.7 million, respectively, during the comparable year over year periods. Operating cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 included the receipt of $1.1 million and $18.9 million, respectively, in income tax refunds related to the U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act.

Other material cash requirements
Other material cash requirements include the following:
Decommissioning. We have decommissioning obligations associated with our oil and gas properties (Note 12)13). Those obligations, which are presented on a discounted basis on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, approximate $76.0$45.0 million (undiscounted) for Thunder Hawk Field oil and gas properties and $33.5 million (undiscounted) for Droshky oil and gas properties as of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, none of which $31.0 million areis expected to be paid during the next 12 months. We are entitled to receive certain amounts$30.0 million (undiscounted) from Marathon Oil Corporation as certain short-term decommissioning obligations associated with Droshky oil and gas properties are fulfilled.
Regulatory recertification and dry dock. Our Well Intervention vessels and systems are subject to certain regulatory recertification requirements that must be satisfied in order for the vessels and systems to operate. Recertification may require dry dock and other compliance costs on a periodic basis, usually every 30 months. Although the amount and timing of these costs may vary and are dependent on the timing of the certification renewal period, they generally range between $3.0 million to $15.0 million per vessel and $0.5 million to $5.0 million per system.
Earn-out consideration. As part of the Alliance acquisition, we are required to make the earn-out payment to the seller in the Alliance transaction in 2024 in the event the Helix Alliance business achieves certain financial metrics in 2022 and 2023 (Note 3).
We expect the sources of funds to satisfy our material cash requirements to primarily come from our ongoing operations and existing cash on hand, but may also come from availability under the Amended ABL Facility and access to capital markets.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations, as reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes, are prepared in conformity with GAAP. As such, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We base our estimates on historical experience, available information and various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and may change over time as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. For information regarding our critical accounting estimates, see our “Critical Accounting Estimates” as disclosed in our 20212022 Form 10-K.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As of September 30, 2022,a multi-national organization, we were exposedare subject to market risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates. We had no exposure torates, interest rate risk as we had no outstanding debt subject to floating rates.rates and commodity prices.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk. Because we operate in various regions around the world, we conduct a portion of our business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As such, our earnings are impacted by movements in foreign currency exchange rates when (i) transactions are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the relevant Helix entity or (ii) the functional currency of our subsidiaries is not the U.S. dollar. In order to mitigate the effects of exchange rate risk in areas outside the U.S., we endeavor to pay a portion of our expenses in local currencies to partially offset revenues that are denominated in the same local currencies. In addition, a substantial portion of our contracts are denominated, and provide for collections from our customers, in U.S. dollars.
Assets and liabilities of our subsidiaries that do not have the U.S. dollar as their functional currency are translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, resultingand changes in the exchange rates can result in translation adjustments that are reflected in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in the shareholders’ equity section of our condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the nine-monthsix-month period ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, we recorded foreign currency translation lossesgains of $79.9$20.7 million to accumulated other comprehensive loss. Deferred taxes have not been provided on foreign currency translation adjustments as our non-U.S.the related undistributed earnings are permanently reinvested.
4138
When currencies other than the functional currency are to be paid or received, the resulting transaction gain or loss associated with changes in the applicable foreign currency exchange rate is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as a component of “Other expense,income (expense), net.” Foreign currency gains or losses from the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities as well as unsettled foreign currency transactions, including intercompany transactions that are not of a long-term investment nature, are also recognized as a component of “Other expense,income (expense), net.” For the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, we recorded net foreign currency losses of $20.3$5.7 million and $37.6$2.3 million, respectively, primarily reflecting foreign currency losses of $11.7 million and $13.2 million, respectively, related to the devaluation of the Nigerian naira on our naira cash holdings, offset in part by foreign currency gains related to U.S. dollar denominated intercompany debt in our U.K. entities.
Interest Rate Risk. In order to maintain a cost-effective capital structure, we borrow funds using a mix of fixed and variable rate debt. For variable rate debt, changes in interest rates could affect our future interest expense and cash flows. Alternatively for fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates may not affect our interest expense, but could result in changes in the fair value of the debt instrument prior to maturity. We currently have no exposure to interest rate risks as we have no outstanding debt subject to floating rates. However, we are subject to risks upon refinancing our debt.
Commodity Price Risk. We are exposed to market price risks related to oil and natural gas with respect to offshore oil and gas production in our Production Facilities business. Prices are volatile and unpredictable and are dependent on many factors beyond our control. See Item 1A.Risk Factors in our 2022 Form 10-K for a list of factors affecting oil and gas prices.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As disclosed in Note (3) to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we acquired Alliance on July 1, 2022. Helix Alliance’s total revenues constituted approximately 24.7%22.5% of total consolidated revenues as shown on our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-monthsix-month period ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023. Helix Alliance’s total assets constituted approximately 8.5%9.6% of total consolidated assets as shown on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023. We excluded Helix Alliance’s disclosure controls and procedures that are subsumed by its internal control over financial reporting from the scope of management's assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. This exclusion is in accordance with the guidance issued by the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission that an assessment of recent business combinations may be omitted from management's assessment of internal control over financial reporting for one year following the acquisition. We are in the processAs of implementing financial reporting controls and procedures atJuly 1, 2023, Helix Alliance as part of our ongoing integration activities. Helix Alliance currently maintains separateAlliance’s accounting systems were converted and is expected to convert tointegrated into Helix’s accounting systems no later than June 30, 2023. The condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were prepared using information obtained from these separate accounting systems.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. Except as described above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterthree-month period ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Except as set forth below, thereThere have been no material changes during the period ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 in our “Risk Factors” as discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Our business would be adversely affected if we failed to comply with the Jones Act foreign ownership provisions or if these provisions were modified or repealed.
We are subject to the Jones Act and other federal laws that restrict maritime cargo transportation between points in the U.S. As a result of the Alliance acquisition, we acquired 21 vessels registered under the U.S. flag which operate in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico coastwise trade. In order to operate vessels in the Jones Act trade and to be qualified to document vessels for coastwise trade, we must maintain U.S. citizen status for Jones Act purposes. We could cease being a U.S. citizen if certain events were to occur, including if non-U.S. citizens were to own 25% or more of our common stock. We are responsible for monitoring our ownership to ensure compliance with the Jones Act. The consequences of our failure to comply with the Jones Act provisions on coastwise trade, including failing to qualify as a U.S. citizen, would have an adverse effect on our results of operations as we may be prohibited from operating certain of our vessels in the U.S. coastwise trade or, under certain circumstances, permanently lose U.S. coastwise trading rights or be subject to fines or forfeiture of certain our vessels. There have been attempts to repeal or amend restrictions contained in the Jones Act, and such attempts are expected to continue in the future. Our business could be adversely affected if the Jones Act were to be modified or repealed so as to permit foreign competition that is not subject to the same U.S. government imposed burdens.
We may execute a strategic transaction that may not achieve intended results, could increase our debt or the number of our shares outstanding, or result in a change of control.
We have executed acquisitions and divestitures in the past, and in the future we may evaluate and potentially enter into additional strategic transactions. Any such transaction could be material to our business, could occur at any time and could take any number of forms, including, for example, an acquisition, merger, joint venture, strategic alliance, equity investment, divestiture or an asset sale.
The success of any transaction may depend on, in part, our ability to integrate an acquired business and realize the financial growth or synergies expected from the transaction. Any such transaction may not be successful, may not be accretive to shareholders or may not achieve expected benefits within an expected timeframe. Acquired businesses may also have unanticipated liabilities, contingencies or negative tax consequences. In addition, acquisitions are accompanied by the risk that the obligations of an acquired business may not be adequately reflected in the historical financial statements of that company and the risk that those historical financial statements may be based on assumptions which are incorrect or inconsistent with our assumptions or approach to accounting policies. Any of these material obligations, unanticipated liabilities or incorrect or inconsistent assumptions could have a material adverse effect on our growth strategy, business, financial condition, prospects and results of operations. Furthermore, evaluating potential transactions and integrating completed transactions could be time-consuming, involve significant transaction related expenses, create unexpected costs, involve difficulties assimilating the operations and personnel of an acquired business, make evaluating our business and future financial prospects difficult and may divert the attention of our management from ordinary operating matters.
Any such transaction may require additional financing that could result in an increase in the number of our outstanding shares or the aggregate amount of our debt, and the number of shares of our common stock or the aggregate principal amount of our debt that we may issue may be significant. Certain transactions may not be permitted under our existing asset-based credit facility, requiring either waivers, amendments, or terminating such facility. Furthermore, a strategic transaction may result in a change in control of our company or otherwise materially and adversely affect our business.2022.
