SEACOR MARINE HOLDINGS INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SEACOR Marine Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made to fairly present the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods indicated. Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year or any future periods.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”).

Unless the context otherwise indicates, any reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the “Company” refers to SEACOR Marine Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, and any reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “SEACOR Marine” refers to SEACOR Marine Holdings Inc. without its consolidated subsidiaries.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards.

On October 29, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-10, Codification Improvements: Amendments that improve the consistency of the Codification by including all disclosure guidance in the appropriate disclosure section. The guidance was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on the disclosures included herein.

Critical Accounting Policies.

Basis of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SEACOR Marine and its controlled subsidiaries. Control is generally deemed to exist if the Company has greater than 50% of the voting rights of a subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in the combination and consolidation.

Noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries are included in the consolidated balance sheets as a separate component of equity. The Company reports consolidated net income (loss) inclusive of both the Company’s and the noncontrolling interests’ share, as well as the amounts of consolidated net income (loss) attributable to each of the Company and the noncontrolling interests. If a subsidiary is deconsolidated upon a change in control, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former controlled subsidiary is measured at fair value and a gain or loss is recognized in net income (loss) based on such fair value. If a subsidiary is consolidated upon the business acquisition of controlling interests by the Company, any previous noncontrolled equity investment in the subsidiary is measured at fair value and a gain or loss is recognized in net income (loss) based on such fair value.

The Company employs the equity method of accounting for investments in 50% or less owned companies that it does not control but has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the business venture. Significant influence is generally deemed to exist if the Company has between 20% and 50% of the voting rights of a business venture but may exist when the Company’s ownership percentage is less than 20%. In certain circumstances, the Company may have an economic interest in excess of 50% but may not control and consolidate the business venture. Conversely, the Company may have an economic interest less than

 

7


 

50% but may control and consolidate the business venture. The Company reports its investments in and advances to these business ventures in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as investments, at equity, and advances to 50% or less owned companies. The Company reports its share of earnings from investments in 50% or less owned companies in the accompanying consolidated statements of income (loss) as equity in earnings of 50% or less owned companies, net of tax.

Certain reclassifications were made to previously reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto to make them consistent with the current period presentation.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates include those related to deferred revenues, allowance for credit loss accounts, useful lives of property and equipment, impairments, income tax provisions and certain accrued liabilities. Actual results could differ from estimates and those differences may be material.

Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company transfers promised goods or services to its customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services, which occurs when (or as) the Company satisfies its contractual obligations and transfers over control of the promised goods or services to its customers. The Company recognizes revenue, net of sales taxes, based on its estimates of the consideration the Company expects to receive. Costs to obtain or fulfill a contract are expensed as incurred.

The Company earns revenue primarily from the time charter and bareboat charter of vessels to customers. Since the Company charges customers based upon daily rates of hire, vessel revenues are recognized on a daily basis throughout the contract period. Under a time charter, the Company provides a vessel to a customer and is responsible for all operating expenses, typically excluding fuel. Under a bareboat charter, the Company provides a vessel to a customer and the customer assumes responsibility for all operating expenses and assumes all risks of operation. In the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, time charter durations and rates are typically established in the context of master service agreements that govern the terms and conditions of the charter.

In the Company’s operating areas, contract or charters vary in length from several days to multi-year periods. Many of the Company’s contracts and charters include cancellation clauses without early termination penalties. As a result of options and frequent renewals, the stated duration of charters may not correlate with the length of time the vessel is contracted for to provide services to a particular customer.

The Company contracts with various customers to carry out management services for vessels as agents for and on behalf of ship owners. These services include crew management, technical management, commercial management, insurance arrangements, sale and purchase of vessels, provisions and bunkering. As the manager of the vessels, the Company undertakes to use its best endeavors to provide the agreed management services as agents for and on behalf of the owners in accordance with sound ship management practice and to protect and promote the interest of the owners in all matters relating to the provision of services thereunder. The Company also contracts with various customers to carry out management services regarding engineering for vessel construction and vessel conversions. The vast majority of the ship management agreements span one to three years and are typically billed on a monthly basis. The Company transfers control of the service to the customer and satisfies its performance obligation over the term of the contract, and therefore recognizes revenue over the term of the contract while related costs are expensed as incurred.

Revenue that does not meet these criteria is deferred until the criteria is met and is considered a contract liability and is recognized as such. Contract liabilities, which are included in deferred revenue and unearned revenue in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows (in thousands):

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $1.5 million of unearned revenue primarily related to mobilization of vessels.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid investments, with an original maturity of three months or less from the date purchased, to be cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash. Restricted cash primarily relates to banking facility requirements.

Trade and Other Receivables. Customers are primarily major integrated national, international oil companies, large independent oil and natural gas exploration and production companies and established wind farm construction companies. Customers are granted credit on a short-term basis and the related credit risks are minimal. Other receivables consist primarily of operating expenses the Company incurs in relation to vessels it manages for other entities, as well as insurance and income tax receivables, but excludes our short-term note receivable. The Company routinely reviews its receivables and makes provisions for the credit losses utilizing the Current Expected Credit Losses model (“CECL”). The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for loans and other receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. However, those provisions are estimates and actual results may materially differ from those estimates. Trade receivables are deemed uncollectible and are removed from accounts receivable and the allowance for credit losses when collection efforts have been exhausted.

Property and Equipment. Equipment, stated at cost, is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset to an estimated salvage value. With respect to each class of asset, the estimated useful life is based upon a newly built asset being placed into service and represents the time period beyond which it is typically not justifiable for the Company to continue to operate the asset in the same or similar manner. From time to time, the Company may acquire older vessels that have already exceeded the Company’s useful life policy, in which case the Company depreciates such assets based on its best estimate of remaining useful life, typically the next survey or certification date. As of September 30, 2023, the estimated useful life of the Company’s new offshore support vessels was 20 years.

Equipment maintenance and repair costs and the costs of routine overhauls, drydockings and inspections performed on vessels and equipment are charged to operating expense as incurred. Expenditures that extend the useful life or improve the marketing and commercial characteristics of equipment as well as major renewals and improvements to other properties are capitalized.

Certain interest costs incurred during the construction of equipment are capitalized as part of the assets’ carrying values and are amortized over such assets’ estimated useful lives. There was no capitalized interest recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Assets Held for Sale. As of September 30, 2023, a liftboat previously included in the United States, primarily Gulf of Mexico segment, with a carrying value of $5.6 million and a AHTS previously included in the

 

9


 

Africa and Europe segment, with a carrying value of $0.5 million, were classified as assets held for sale as the Company expects to sell the vessels within one year.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The Company performs an impairment analysis of long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present. These indicators may include a significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset or asset group, a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset or asset group is being used or in its physical condition, or a current period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset or asset group. If the carrying values of the assets are not recoverable, as determined by their estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the estimated fair value of the assets or asset groups are compared to their current carrying values and impairment charges are recorded if the carrying value exceeds fair value.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded impairment charges of $0.3 million for one leased-in anchor handling towing supply vessel (“AHTS”) to adjust for indicative future cash flows. There were no impairments of other owned or leased-in vessels. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded impairment charges of $3.4 million. The Company recorded impairment charges of $0.9 million for one fast support vessel (“FSV”) classified as held for sale during the first quarter of 2022 and sold during the second quarter of 2022. In addition, in the third quarter of 2022, the Company recorded impairment charges of $1.2 million for one leased-in AHTS as it was not expected to return to active service during its remaining lease term. Additionally, the Company recorded impairment charges of $1.3 million for other equipment, classified as assets held for sale during the third quarter of 2022, which was subsequently sold in the first quarter of 2023. The impairment charges for the assets held for sale are included in (losses) gains on asset dispositions and impairments in the accompanying consolidated statements of income (loss). Estimated fair values for the Company owned vessels were established by independent appraisers based on researched market information, replacement cost information and other data.

For vessel classes and individual vessels with indicators of impairment as of September 30, 2023, the Company estimated that their future undiscounted cash flows exceeded their current carrying values. However, the Company’s estimates of future undiscounted cash flows are highly subjective as utilization and rates per day worked are uncertain, especially in light of the continued volatility in commodity prices as well as the timing and cost of reactivating cold-stacked vessels. If market conditions decline, changes in the Company’s expectations on future cash flows may result in recognizing additional impairment charges related to its long-lived assets in future periods. For any vessel or vessel class that has indicators of impairment and is deemed not recoverable through future operations, the Company determines the fair value of the vessel or vessel class. If the fair value determination is less than the carrying value of the vessel or vessel class, an impairment is recognized to reduce the carrying value to fair value. Fair value determination is primarily accomplished by obtaining independent valuations of vessel or vessel classes from qualified third-party appraisers.

Impairment of 50% or Less Owned Companies. Investments in 50% or less owned companies are reviewed periodically to assess whether there is an other-than-temporary decline in the carrying value of the investment. In its evaluation, the Company considers, among other items, recent and expected financial performance and returns, impairments recorded by the investee and the capital structure of the investee. When the Company determines the estimated fair value of an investment is below carrying value and the decline is other-than-temporary, the investment is written down to its estimated fair value. Actual results may vary from the Company’s estimates due to the uncertainty regarding projected financial performance, the severity and expected duration of declines in value and the available liquidity in the capital markets to support the continuing operations of the investee, among other factors. Although the Company believes its assumptions and estimates are reasonable, the investee’s actual performance compared with the estimates could produce different results and

 

10


 

lead to additional impairment charges in future periods. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not recognize any impairment charges related to its 50% or less owned companies.

Income Taxes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company’s effective income tax rate of 15.32% was primarily due to foreign taxes paid that are not creditable against U.S. income taxes.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share. Basic earnings/loss per share of Common Stock of the Company is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (“Warrants”) issued and outstanding during the relevant periods. The Warrants are included in the basic earnings/loss per share of Common Stock because the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are issuable for de minimis cash consideration and therefore not anti-dilutive. Diluted earnings/loss per share of Common Stock is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and Warrants issued and outstanding plus the effect of other potentially dilutive securities through the application of the treasury stock method and the if-converted method that assumes all shares of Common Stock have been issued and outstanding during the relevant periods pursuant to the conversion of the Old Convertible Notes and the New Convertible Notes unless anti-dilutive.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, diluted loss per share of Common Stock excluded 2,978,724 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the New Convertible Notes as the effect of their inclusion in the computation would be anti-dilutive.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, diluted loss per share of Common Stock excluded 2,907,500 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Old Convertible Notes as the effect of their inclusion in the computation would be anti-dilutive.

In addition, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 diluted loss per share of Common Stock excluded 1,642,084 and 1,645,207 shares of restricted stock, respectively, and 1,026,031 and 1,026,865 shares of Common Stock, respectively, issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, as the effect of their inclusion in the computation would be anti-dilutive.

NOTE RECEIVABLE

In connection with the closing of the framework agreement transactions (the “Framework Agreement Transactions”), on September 29, 2022, SEACOR Marine Capital Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of SEACOR Marine (“SEACOR Marine Capital”) purchased all of the outstanding loans under the MexMar Original Facility Agreement for an aggregate amount of $28.8 million, representing par value of the loan using proceeds received from the Framework Agreement Transactions. On the same date, the MexMar Original Facility Agreement was amended and restated in the MexMar Third A&R Facility Agreement pursuant to which, among other things, Mantenimiento Express Marítimo, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (“MexMar”) repaid approximately $8.8 million of the outstanding loan amount and agreed to repay the $20.0 million of the loan that remained outstanding by September 30, 2023 through four quarterly installments of $5.0 million. As of September 30, 2023, the loan balance due from MexMar was repaid in full.

3.
EQUIPMENT ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, capital expenditures were $7.0 million. Equipment deliveries during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 include one FSV. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company sold three liftboats, one specialty vessel, previously removed from service, and other equipment, previously classified as held for sale, as well as other equipment not previously classified as such, for net cash proceeds of $8.0 million, after transaction costs, and a gain of $2.7 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company sold one FSV, one liftboat, previously removed from service, office space, and other equipment for net cash proceeds of $6.7 million, after transaction costs, and a gain of $2.2 million, which included impairment charges of $0.9 million for the FSV classified as held for sale during the first quarter of 2022 and sold during the second quarter of 2022.

The 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility matures on September 14, 2028, with quarterly amortization of 2.5% of the initial loan advanced thereunder, with the remaining outstanding principal amount due on the maturity date. The 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility bears interest at a fixed rate of 11.75% per annum.

The loan may be prepaid at any time in amounts of $1,000,000 or greater, subject to: (a) prior to the 12-month anniversary of funding, a premium equal to the remaining unpaid interest due over the first 15 months of the loan, and (b) after the 12-month anniversary of funding and prior to the 30-month anniversary of funding, a decreasing premium ranging from 3.00% to 1.00% of the amount prepaid.

SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility.

On June 16, 2023, SEACOR Alps LLC (“SEACOR Alps”), SEACOR Andes LLC (“SEACOR Andes”), and SEACOR Atlas LLC (“SEACOR Atlas” and, together with SEACOR Alps and SEACOR Andes, the “SEACOR Alpine Borrowers”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of SEACOR Marine, as borrowers, entered into a $28.0 million senior secured term loan facility, by and among the SEACOR Alpine Borrowers, SEACOR Marine, as a guarantor, SEACOR Marine Alpine LLC (“SM Alpine”), and Mountain Supply LLC, an affiliate of Hudson Structured Capital Management, as lender, facility agent and security trustee (the “SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility”). The proceeds of the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility were made available to the SEACOR Alpine Borrowers in three tranches and were used to satisfy in full amounts outstanding under certain shipyard financing provided by COSCO Shipping Heavy Industry (Zhoushan) Co. in connection with the newbuild delivery of three Marshall Islands flagged platform supply vessels to the SEACOR Alpine Borrowers during 2019 and 2020. The funds available under the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility were fully drawn on June 27, 2023.

The SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility matures on June 27, 2028 (the “SEACOR Alpine Maturity Date”). The principal amount of each of the three tranches of the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility is to be repaid in monthly installments of (i) $100,000 for the first eight (8) installments, (ii) $140,000 for the following twenty-four (24) installments, and (iii) $100,000 for each installment thereafter until the SEACOR Alpine Maturity Date. The SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility bears interest at a fixed rate of 10.25% per annum. The loan may be prepaid at any time in amounts of $500,000 or greater, subject to the payment of prepayment interest in respect of the loan or tranche (or portions thereof) being prepaid as follows: (A) if such prepayment is made prior to the first anniversary of the drawdown date, an amount equal to the greater of (x) the amount of unpaid interest which would have accrued until the first anniversary of the drawdown date and (y) 1.5% of the principal amount of the loan being prepaid, (B) if such prepayment is made on or after the first anniversary of the drawdown date but prior to the third anniversary of the drawdown date, 1.0% of the principal amount of the loan being prepaid, and (C) if such prepayment is made on or after the third anniversary of the drawdown date, no prepayment interest shall be payable.

The SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility contains customary covenants for financings of this type including financial maintenance and restrictive covenants, including the maintenance of certain ratios such as the aggregate collateral vessel value to the sum of the outstanding principal amounts of the loans. The SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility restricts the payment of dividends and distributions and the ability of the SEACOR Alpine Borrowers to make certain investments. In addition, the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility includes customary events of default.

In connection with the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility, SEACOR Marine issued a guaranty with respect to the obligations of the SEACOR Alpine Borrowers under the SEACOR Alpine Credit Agreement and related documents. This guaranty includes, among other customary covenants, various financial covenants, including minimum liquidity, and debt-to-capitalization and interest coverage ratios.

On September 8, 2023, SEACOR Marine entered into an amended and restated guaranty (“A&R SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility Guaranty”) with respect to the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility. The A&R SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility Guaranty aligns the financial covenants and conditions relating to the payment of dividends and distributions reflected therein with those reflected in the 2023 SMFH Credit Facility Guaranty described above.

Letters of Credit. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $1.1 million securing lease obligations, labor and performance guaranties.

Economic Hedges. The Company may enter and settle forward currency exchange, option and future contracts with respect to various foreign currencies. These contracts enable the Company to buy currencies in the future at fixed exchange rates, which could offset possible consequences of changes in currency exchange rates with respect to the Company’s business conducted outside of the U.S. The Company generally does not enter into contracts with forward settlement dates beyond 12 to 18 months. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no open forward currency exchange contracts.

Cash Flow Hedges. The Company may have interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges. By entering into interest rate swap agreements, the Company can convert the variable interest component of certain of their outstanding borrowings to a fixed interest rate. The Company recognized losses on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges of $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and gains of $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). As of September 30, 2023, there were no interest rate swaps held by the Company.

Other Derivative Instruments. The Company had no derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and recognized gains on derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as follows (in thousands):

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction

between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs derived from observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows (in thousands):

The carrying value of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was estimated based upon quoted market prices or by using discounted cash flow analysis based on estimated current rates for similar types of arrangements. Considerable judgment was required in developing certain of the estimates of fair value, and, accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

Property and equipment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized impairment charges of $0.3 million for one leased-in AHTS to adjust for indicative future cash flows. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized impairment charges totaling $2.9 million. The Company recorded impairment charges of $0.9 million for one FSV classified as held for sale and sold during 2022. In addition, the Company recorded impairment charges of $0.7 million for one leased-in AHTS as it is not expected to return to active service during its remaining lease term. Additionally, the Company recorded impairment charges of $1.3 million for other equipment and classified such equipment as assets held for sale, which was subsequently sold in the first quarter of 2023.

WARRANTS

In connection with various transactions, the Company issued 2,560,456 warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (“Warrants”). As of September 30, 2023, 1,321,968 Warrants remain outstanding, which are comprised entirely of warrants issued to funds affiliated with The Carlyle Group.

11.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had unfunded capital commitments of $1.0 million for miscellaneous vessel equipment payable during 2024. The Company has indefinitely deferred an additional $9.2 million of orders with respect to one FSV.

In December 2015, the Brazilian Federal Revenue Office issued a tax-deficiency notice to Seabulk Offshore do Brasil Ltda, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of SEACOR Marine (“Seabulk Offshore do Brasil”), with respect to certain profit participation contributions (also known as “PIS”) and social security financing contributions (also known as “COFINS”) requirements alleged to be due from Seabulk Offshore do Brasil (“Deficiency Notice”) in respect of the period of January 2011 until December 2012. In January 2016, the Company administratively appealed the Deficiency Notice on the basis that, among other arguments, (i) such contributions were not applicable in the circumstances of a 70%/30% cost allocation structure, and (ii) the tax inspector had incorrectly determined that values received from outside of Brazil could not be classified as expense refunds. The initial appeal was dismissed by the Brazilian Federal Revenue Office and the Company appealed such dismissal and is currently awaiting an administrative trial. A local Brazilian law has been enacted that supports the Company’s position that such contribution requirements are not applicable, but it is uncertain whether such law will be taken into consideration with respect to administrative proceedings commenced prior to the enactment of the law. Accordingly, the success of Seabulk Offshore do Brasil in the administrative proceedings cannot be assured and the matter may need to be addressed through judicial court proceedings. The potential levy arising from the Deficiency Notice is R$22.6 million based on a historical potential levy of R$12.87 million (USD $4.5 million and USD $2.6 million, respectively, based on the exchange rate as of September 30, 2023).

On April 13, 2021, the SEACOR Power, a liftboat owned by a subsidiary of the Company with nineteen individuals on board, capsized off the coast of Port Fourchon, Louisiana. The incident resulted in the death of several crew members, including the captain of the vessel and five other employees of the Company. The incident also resulted in the constructive total loss of the SEACOR Power. In coordination with the U.S. Coast Guard (“USCG”), the Company has completed the salvage operations related to the vessel and the associated salvage costs were covered by insurance proceeds.

The National Transportation Safety Board (“NTSB”) and the USCG have each conducted an investigation to determine the cause of the incident and released their respective final reports. The NTSB’s report determined that the probable cause of the capsizing of the SEACOR Power was a loss of stability that occurred when the vessel was struck by severe thunderstorm winds, which exceeded the vessel’s operation wind speed limits. The NTSB further determined that contributing to the loss of life on the vessel was the speed at which the vessel capsized and the angle at which it came to rest, which made egress difficult, and the high winds and seas in the aftermath of the capsizing, which hampered rescue efforts. The USCG’s report is consistent with the determinations of the NTSB.

Numerous civil lawsuits have been filed against the Company and other third parties by the family members of deceased crew members and the surviving crew members employed by the Company or by third parties. On June 2, 2021, the Company filed a Limitation of Liability Act complaint in federal court in the Eastern District of Louisiana (“Limitation Action”), which had the effect of enjoining all existing civil lawsuits and requiring the plaintiffs to file their claims relating to the capsizing of the SEACOR Power in the Limitation Action. Nearly all injury and death claims in the Limitation Action for which the Company has financial exposure

 

19


 

have been resolved, and the remaining claims are those for which the Company is owed contractual defense and indemnity or will be covered by insurance.

In the normal course of its business, the Company becomes involved in various other litigation matters including, among others, claims by third parties for alleged property damages and personal injuries. Management has used estimates in determining the Company’s potential exposure to these matters and has recorded reserves in its financial statements related thereto where appropriate. It is possible that a change in the Company’s estimates of that exposure could occur, but the Company does not expect that such changes in estimated costs would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are participating employers in two industry-wide, multi-employer, defined benefit pension funds in the United Kingdom: the U.K Merchant Navy Officers Pension Fund (“MNOPF”) and the U.K. Merchant Navy Ratings Pension Fund (“MNRPF”). The Company’s participation in the MNOPF began with the acquisition of the Stirling group of companies (the “Stirling Group”) in 2001 and relates to certain officers employed between 1978 and 2002 by the Stirling Group and/or its predecessors. The Company’s participation in the MNRPF also began with the acquisition of the Stirling Group in 2001 and relates to ratings employed by the Stirling Group and/or its predecessors through today. Both of these plans are in deficit positions and, depending upon the results of future actuarial valuations, it is possible that the plans could experience funding deficits that will require the Company to recognize payroll related operating expenses in the periods invoices are received. As of September 30, 2023, all invoices related to MNOPF and MNRPF have been settled in full.

On October 19, 2021, the Company was informed by the MNRPF that two issues had been identified during a review of the MNRPF by the applicable trustee that would potentially give rise to material additional liabilities for the MNRPF. The MNRPF has indicated that the investigations into these issues remain ongoing, and that further updates will be provided as significant developments arise. Should such additional liabilities require the MNRPF to collect additional funds from participating employers, it is possible that the Company will be invoiced for a portion of such funds and recognize payroll related operating expenses in the periods invoices are received.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements concern management’s expectations, strategic objectives, business prospects, anticipated economic performance and financial condition and other similar matters and involve significant known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements discussed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Certain of these risks, uncertainties and other important factors are discussed in the Risk Factors and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, it should be understood that it is not possible to identify or predict all such risks, uncertainties and factors, and others may arise from time to time. All of these forward-looking statements constitute the Company’s cautionary statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “believe,” “plan,” “target,” “forecast” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements speak only as of the date of the document in which they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation or undertaking to provide any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which the forward-looking statement is based. It is advisable, however, to consult any further disclosures the Company makes on related subjects in its Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (the “MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in the 2022 Annual Report.

Overview

The Company provides global marine and support transportation services to offshore energy facilities worldwide. As of September 30, 2023, the Company operated a diverse fleet of 59 support vessels, of which 57 were owned or leased-in, and two were managed on behalf of unaffiliated third parties. The primary users of the Company’s services are major integrated national and international oil companies, independent oil and natural gas exploration and production companies, oil field service and construction companies, as well as offshore wind farm operators and offshore wind farm installation and maintenance companies.

The Company operates and manages a diverse fleet of offshore support vessels that (i) deliver cargo and personnel to offshore installations, including offshore wind farms, (ii) assist offshore operations for production and storage facilities, (iii) provide construction, well work-over, offshore wind farm installation and decommissioning support, (iv) carry and launch equipment used underwater in drilling and well installation, maintenance, inspection and repair and (v) handle anchors and mooring equipment for offshore rigs and platforms. Additionally, the Company’s vessels provide emergency response services and accommodations for technicians and specialists.

The Company operates its fleet in four principal geographic regions: the U.S., primarily in the Gulf of Mexico; Africa and Europe; the Middle East and Asia; and Latin America, primarily in Mexico and Guyana. The Company’s vessels are highly mobile and regularly and routinely move between countries within a geographic region. In addition, the Company’s vessels are redeployed among geographic regions, subject to flag restrictions, as changes in market conditions dictate.

Significant items affecting our results of operations

The number and type of vessels operated, their rates per day worked and their utilization levels are the key determinants of the Company’s operating results and cash flows. Unless a vessel is cold-stacked, there is little

reduction in daily running costs for the vessels and, consequently, operating margins are most sensitive to changes in rates per day worked and utilization. The Company manages its fleet utilizing a global network of shore side support, administrative and finance personnel.

Offshore oil and natural gas market conditions are highly volatile. Prices deteriorated beginning in the second half of 2014 and continued to deteriorate when oil prices hit a 13-year low of less than $27 per barrel (on the New York Mercantile Exchange) in February 2016. Oil prices experienced unprecedented volatility during 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the related effects on the global economy, with the price per barrel going negative for a short period of time. Oil prices have steadily increased since the lows hit at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and hit a multi-year high of $122 per barrel at points during 2022 primarily as a result of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine as well as the related economic sanctions and economic uncertainty but have recently decreased to the $91 per barrel range.

While the Company has experienced difficult market conditions over the past few years due to low and volatile oil and natural gas prices and the focus of oil and natural gas producing companies on cost and capital spending budget reductions, the increases since the lows experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic in oil and natural gas prices has led to an increase in utilization, day rates and customer inquiries about potential new charters.

Low oil prices and the subsequent decline in offshore exploration have forced many operators in the industry to restructure or liquidate assets. The Company continues to closely monitor the delivery of newly built offshore support vessels to the industry-wide fleet, which in the recent past contributed to an oversaturated market, thereby further lowering the demand for the Company’s existing offshore support vessel fleet. A combination of (i) low customer exploration and drilling activity levels, and (ii) excess supply of offshore support vessels whether from laid up fleets or newly built vessels could, in isolation or together, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, cash flows and growth prospects.

Certain macro drivers somewhat independent of oil and natural gas prices may support the Company’s business, including: (i) underspending by oil and natural gas producers during the recent industry downturn leading to pent up demand for maintenance and growth capital expenditures; (ii) improved extraction technologies; and (iii) the need for offshore wind farms support as the industry grows. While the Company expects that alternative forms of energy will continue to grow and add to the world’s energy mix, especially as governments, supranational groups and various other parties focus on climate change causes and concerns, the Company believes that for the foreseeable future demand for gasoline and oil will be sustained, as will demand for electricity from natural gas. Some alternative forms of energy such as offshore wind farms support some of the Company’s businesses and the Company expects such support to increase as development of renewable energy expands.

The Company adheres to a strategy of cold-stacking vessels (removing from active service) during periods of weak utilization in order to reduce the daily running costs of operating the fleet, primarily personnel, repairs and maintenance costs, as well as to defer some drydocking costs into future periods. The Company considers various factors in determining which vessels to cold-stack, including upcoming dates for regulatory vessel inspections and related docking requirements. The Company may maintain class certification on certain cold-stacked vessels, thereby incurring some drydocking costs while cold-stacked. Cold-stacked vessels are returned to active service when market conditions improve, or management anticipates improvement, typically leading to increased costs for drydocking, personnel, repair and maintenance in the periods immediately preceding the vessels’ return to active service. Depending on market conditions, vessels with similar characteristics and capabilities may be rotated between active service and cold-stack. On an ongoing basis, the Company reviews its cold-stacked vessels to determine if any should be designated as retired and removed from service based on the vessel’s physical condition, the expected costs to reactivate and restore class certification, if any, and its viability

to operate within current and projected market conditions. As of September 30, 2023, two of the Company’s 59 owned and leased-in vessels was cold-stacked. In addition, the Company had two vessels classified as held for sale as of September 30, 2023.

Recent Developments

2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility.

On September 8, 2023, SEACOR Marine, as parent guarantor, SMFH, as borrower, and certain other wholly-owned subsidiaries of SEACOR Marine, as subsidiary guarantors, entered into a credit agreement providing for a $122.0 million senior secured term loan (the “2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility” and such agreement, the “2023 SMFH Credit Agreement”) with certain affiliates of EnTrust Global, as lenders, Kroll Agency Services, Limited, as facility agent, and Kroll Trustee Services Limited, as security trustee.

The proceeds of the 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility were used to:

(x) refinance approximately $104.8 million of existing principal indebtedness comprised of: (a) $61.1 million incurred under the 2018 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility, (b) $11.0 million incurred under the SEACOR 88/888 Term Loan, (c) $15.1 million incurred under the SEACOR Offshore OSV Credit Facility, (d) $13.7 million incurred under the SEACOR Offshore Delta (f/k/a SEACOSCO) Acquisition Debt, and (e) $3.9 million incurred under the Tarahumara Shipyard Financing, which payoff amount reflects a 7% discount to book value,

(y) acquire 100% ownership of the Amy Clemons McCall, a 2014 build fast support vessel, previously operated under lease and now pledged as collateral under the 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility, and

(z) satisfy accrued and unpaid interest, fees, and general corporate purposes. The funds available under the 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility were fully drawn on September 14, 2023.

The 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility matures on September 14, 2028, with quarterly amortization of 2.5% of the initial loan advanced thereunder, with the remaining outstanding principal amount due on the maturity date. The 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility bears interest at a fixed rate of 11.75% per annum.

The loan may be prepaid at any time in amounts of $1,000,000 or greater, subject to: (a) prior to the 12-month anniversary of funding, a premium equal to the remaining unpaid interest due over the first 15 months of the loan, and (b) after the 12-month anniversary of funding and prior to the 30-month anniversary of funding, a decreasing premium ranging from 3.00% to 1.00% of the amount prepaid.

The 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility contains customary covenants for financings of this type including financial maintenance and restrictive covenants, such as the aggregate collateral vessel value to the sum of the outstanding principal amounts of the loans. The 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility restricts the payment of dividends and distributions and the ability of the borrower and subsidiary guarantors to make certain investments, subject to important exceptions. In addition, the 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility includes customary events of default.

SEACOR Marine issued a guaranty with respect to the obligations of the Borrower under the 2023 SMFH Credit Agreement and related documents (the “2023 SMFH Credit Facility Guaranty”). The 2023 SMFH Credit Facility Guaranty includes, among other customary covenants, various financial covenants, including (A) minimum Cash and Cash Equivalents (as defined in the 2023 SMFH Credit Agreement) of the higher of $20.0 million and 7.5% of Net Interest-Bearing Debt (as defined in the 2023 SMFH Credit Agreement), (B) minimum

 

27


 

Equity Ratio (as defined in the 2023 SMFH Credit Agreement) of 35%, and (C) maximum Debt-to-Capitalization Ratio (as defined in the 2023 SMFH Credit Agreement) of 65%. The 2023 SMFH Credit Facility Guaranty also restricts the payment of dividends and distributions and includes certain restrictions on the prepayment of unsecured indebtedness.

SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility.

On June 16, 2023, SEACOR Alps LLC (“SEACOR Alps”), SEACOR Andes LLC (“SEACOR Andes”), and SEACOR Atlas LLC (“SEACOR Atlas” and, together with SEACOR Alps and SEACOR Andes, the “SEACOR Alpine Borrowers”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of SEACOR Marine, as borrowers, entered into a $28.0 million senior secured term loan facility, by and among the SEACOR Alpine Borrowers, SEACOR Marine, as a guarantor, SEACOR Marine Alpine LLC (“SM Alpine”), and Mountain Supply LLC, an affiliate of Hudson Structured Capital Management, as lender, facility agent and security trustee (the “SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility”). The proceeds of the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility were made available to the SEACOR Alpine Borrowers in three tranches and were used to satisfy in full amounts outstanding under certain shipyard financing provided by COSCO Shipping Heavy Industry (Zhoushan) Co. in connection with the newbuild delivery of three Marshall Islands flagged platform supply vessels to the SEACOR Alpine Borrowers during 2019 and 2020. The funds available under the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility were fully drawn on June 27, 2023.

The SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility matures on June 27, 2028 (the “SEACOR Alpine Maturity Date”). The principal amount of each of the three tranches of the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility is to be repaid in monthly installments of (i) $100,000 for the first eight (8) installments, (ii) $140,000 for the following twenty-four (24) installments, and (iii) $100,000 for each installment thereafter until the SEACOR Alpine Maturity Date. The SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility bears interest at a fixed rate of 10.25% per annum. The loan may be prepaid at any time in amounts of $500,000 or greater, subject to the payment of prepayment interest in respect of the loan or tranche (or portions thereof) being prepaid as follows: (A) if such prepayment is made prior to the first anniversary of the drawdown date, an amount equal to the greater of (x) the amount of unpaid interest which would have accrued until the first anniversary of the drawdown date and (y) 1.5% of the principal amount of the loan being prepaid, (B) if such prepayment is made on or after the first anniversary of the drawdown date but prior to the third anniversary of the drawdown date, 1.0% of the principal amount of the loan being prepaid, and (C) if such prepayment is made on or after the third anniversary of the drawdown date, no prepayment interest shall be payable.

The SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility contains customary covenants for financings of this type including financial maintenance and restrictive covenants, including the maintenance of certain ratios such as the aggregate collateral vessel value to the sum of the outstanding principal amounts of the loans. The SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility restricts the payment of dividends and distributions and the ability of the SEACOR Alpine Borrowers to make certain investments. In addition, the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility includes customary events of default.

In connection with the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility, SEACOR Marine issued a guaranty with respect to the obligations of the SEACOR Alpine Borrowers under the SEACOR Alpine Credit Agreement and related documents. This guaranty includes, among other customary covenants, various financial covenants, including minimum liquidity, and debt-to-capitalization and interest coverage ratios.

On September 8, 2023, SEACOR Marine entered into an amended and restated guaranty (“A&R SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility Guaranty”) with respect to the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility. The A&R SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility Guaranty aligns the financial covenants and conditions relating to the payment of dividends and distributions reflected therein with those reflected in the 2023 SMFH Credit Facility Guaranty described above.

At the Market Offering.

On November 1, 2023, SEACOR Marine entered into an at-the-market sales agreement (the “sales agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (the “sales agent”), relating to the issuance and sale from time to time by SEACOR Marine (the “ATM Offering”), through the sales agent, of shares of SEACOR Marine’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $25.0 million (the “ATM Shares”).

Direct Vessel Profit. Direct vessel profit (defined as operating revenues less operating expenses excluding leased-in equipment, “DVP”) is the Company’s measure of segment profitability. DVP is a critical financial measure used by the Company to analyze and compare the operating performance of its regions, without regard to financing decisions (depreciation and interest expense for owned vessels vs. lease expense for leased-in vessels). See “Note 13. Segment Information” to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I. Item 1. “Financial Statements” elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter

Operating Revenues. Charter revenues were $0.8 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter due to decreased utilization of the vessels included in the results of this region in both comparative periods (as applicable to each region, the “Regional Core Fleet”). Other marine services were $3.3 million higher primarily due to business interruption insurance revenue and higher vessel mobilization revenues. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had two of 13 owned and leased-in vessels (one liftboat and one FSV) cold-stacked in this region compared with two of 14 vessels (one AHTS and one liftboat) as of September 30, 2022. In addition, the Company had one vessel classified as held for sale in this region as of September 30, 2023.

Direct Operating Expenses. Direct operating expenses were $3.3 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter for the Regional Core Fleet primarily due to the timing of drydocking, repairs, insurance and other related expenditures.

Current Year Nine Months compared with Prior Year Nine Months

Operating Revenues. Charter revenues were $5.8 million lower in the Current Year Nine Months compared with the Prior Year Nine Months. Charter revenues were $3.3 million lower due to decreased utilization for the Regional Core Fleet and $2.5 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions. Other marine services were $5.7 million higher primarily due to business interruption insurance revenue and higher mobilization revenues.

Direct Operating Expenses. Direct operating expenses were $5.5 million lower in the Current Year Nine Months compared with the Prior Year Nine Months. Direct operating expenses were $2.6 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions, $2.4 million lower for the Regional Core Fleet primarily due to the timing of drydocking and certain repair expenditures, and $0.5 million lower due to net asset dispositions.

Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter

Operating Revenues. Charter revenues were $5.0 million higher in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Charter revenues were $2.9 million higher for the Regional Core Fleet primarily as a result of increased day rates and $2.1 million higher due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions. Other marine services were $0.8 million higher primarily due to the recognition of previously deferred revenue partially offset by higher commission charges. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no owned or leased-in vessels cold-stacked in this region. In addition, the Company had one vessel classified as held for sale in this region as of September 30, 2023.

Direct Operating Expenses. Direct operating expenses were $0.7 million higher in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Direct operating expenses were $0.3 million higher for the Regional Core Fleet and $0.5 million higher due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease due to net asset dispositions.

Current Year Nine Months compared with Prior Year Nine Months

Operating Revenues. Charter revenues were $21.2 million higher in the Current Year Nine Months compared with the Prior Year Nine Months. Charter revenues were $11.5 million higher due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions and $10.4 million higher for the Regional Core Fleet as a result of increased day rates and utilization partially offset by a $0.7 million decrease due to net asset dispositions. Other marine services were $1.6 million lower primarily due to higher commission charges.

Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter

Operating Revenues. Charter revenues were $3.7 million higher in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter, primarily due to increased day rates for the Regional Core Fleet. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no owned or leased-in vessels cold-stacked in this region.

Direct Operating Expenses. Direct operating expenses were $0.3 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to the timing of certain repair expenditures.

Current Year Nine Months compared with Prior Year Nine Months

Operating Revenues. Charter revenues were $11.4 million higher in the Current Year Nine Months compared with the Prior Year Nine Months. Charter revenues were $7.5 million higher for the Regional Core Fleet as a result of increased day rates and $3.9 million higher due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions.

Direct Operating Expenses. Direct operating expenses were $0.7 million lower in the Current Year Nine Months compared with the Prior Year Nine Months primarily due to the timing of certain repair expenditures.

Other Operating Expenses

Lease Expense. Leased-in equipment expense for the Current Year Quarter and Current Year Nine Months was $0.5 million lower and $1.2 million lower compared with the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year Nine Months primarily due to the impairment of one leased-in vessel in 2022. Our fleet currently includes one leased in vessel compared to three in the prior year.

Administrative and general. Administrative and general expenses for the Current Year Quarter and Current Year Nine Months were $2.3 million higher and $7.5 million higher compared to the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year Nine Months due to increases in our allowance for credit losses and increases in salaries and benefits expenses in the Current Year Quarter and Current Year Nine Months.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense for the Current Year Quarter and Current Year Nine Months were $0.3 million lower and $1.5 million lower compared to the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year Nine Months primarily due to net fleet changes.

 

43


 

Gains (Losses) on Asset Dispositions and Impairments, Net. There were no vessel sales during the Current Year Quarter. The Company recognized impairment charges of $0.3 million for one AHTS to adjust for indicative future cash flows. During the Prior Year Quarter, the Company sold one AHTS in exchange for the remaining equity interests in SEACOR Marlin LLC and recorded a gain on the sale of MexMar, OVH and other assets of $0.8 million. In addition, the Company recorded impairment charges of $1.2 million for one leased-in AHTS as it was not expected to return to active service during its remaining lease term. Additionally, the Company recorded impairment charges of $1.3 million for other equipment, classified as assets held for sale during the third quarter of 2022, which was subsequently sold in the first quarter of 2023.

During the Current Year Nine Months, the Company sold three liftboats, one specialty vessel, previously removed from service, and other equipment, previously classified as held for sale, as well as other equipment not previously classified as such, for net cash proceeds of $8.0 million, after transaction costs, and a gain of $2.7 million. In addition, the Company recognized impairment charges of $0.3 million for one AHTS to adjust for indicative future cash flows. During the Prior Year Nine Months, the Company sold one FSV, one liftboat, previously removed from service, office space, and other equipment for net cash proceeds of $6.7 million, after transaction costs, and a gain of $2.2 million, which included impairment charges of $0.9 million for the FSV classified as held for sale during the first quarter of 2022 and sold during the second quarter of 2022. Also, the Company sold one AHTS in exchange for the remaining equity interests in SEACOR Marlin LLC and recorded a gain on the sale of MexMar, OVH and other assets of $0.8 million.

In addition, during the Prior Year Nine Months, the Company recorded impairment charges of $1.2 million for one leased-in AHTS as it was not expected to return to active service during its remaining lease term. Additionally, the Company recorded impairment charges of $1.3 million for other equipment, classified as assets held for sale during the third quarter of 2022, which was subsequently sold in the first quarter of 2023.

Interest income. Interest income for the Current Year Quarter and Current Year Nine Months compared with the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year Nine Months was higher due to interest received for the loan due from MexMar.

Interest expense. Interest expense was higher in the Current Year Quarter and Current Year Nine Months compared with the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year Nine Months primarily due to a higher interest rate on the 2018 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility, a higher interest rate due to the refinancing of the 2018 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility with the 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility, a higher interest rate due to the exchange of the Old Convertible Notes for the Guaranteed Notes and the New Convertible Notes, and higher interest rates on variable rate debt as a result of the interest rate environment.

Loss on debt extinguishment. Loss on debt extinguishment was higher in the Current Year Quarter and Current Year Nine Months compared with the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year Nine Months due to the exchange of the 2018 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility for the 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility. See “Note 5. Long-Term Debt” to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I. Item 1. “Financial Statements” elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Derivative gains, net. Net derivative losses for the Current Year Quarter and Current Year Nine Months compared with the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year Nine Months decreased due to the Company no longer having a conversion option liability.

Foreign currency gains (losses), net. Foreign currency losses for the Current Year Quarter and Current Year Nine Months compared to foreign currency gains for the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year Nine Months was primarily due to various changes in foreign currencies.

Income Tax Expense

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company’s effective income tax rate of 15.32% was primarily due to foreign taxes paid that are not creditable against U.S. income taxes.

Equity in Earnings of 50% or Less Owned Companies

Equity in earnings of 50% or less owned companies for the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter were $2.5 million higher and earnings for the Current Year Nine Months compared with the Prior Year Nine Months were $2.7 million lower due to the following changes in equity earnings (losses) (in thousands):

MexMar, OVH and SEACOR Marlin. On September 29, 2022, each of the Framework Agreement Transactions were consummated. As a result, the Company no longer owns any equity interest in either MexMar or in OVH, and the Company owns all of the equity interests in SEACOR Marlin LLC. As a result, the Company expects its equity in earnings of 50% or less owned companies not to be significant in future periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Short and Long-Term Liquidity Requirements

The Company believes that a combination of cash balances on hand, cash generated from operating activities, collections of our short-term note receivable and access to the credit and capital markets will provide sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations, including to support its capital expenditures program, working capital needs, debt service requirements and covenant compliance over the short to long term. The Company continually evaluates possible acquisitions and dispositions of certain businesses and assets. The Company’s sources of liquidity may be impacted by the general condition of the markets in which it operates and the broader economy as a whole, which may limit its access to or the availability of the credit and capital markets on acceptable terms. Management continuously monitors the Company’s liquidity and compliance with covenants in its credit facilities.

Note Receivable

(x) refinance approximately $104.8 million of existing principal indebtedness comprised of: (a) $61.1 million incurred under the 2018 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility, (b) $11.0 million incurred under the SEACOR 88/888 Term Loan, (c) $15.1 million incurred under the SEACOR Offshore OSV Credit Facility, (d) $13.7 million incurred under the SEACOR Offshore Delta (f/k/a SEACOSCO) Acquisition Debt, and (e) $3.9 million incurred under the Tarahumara Shipyard Financing, which payoff amount reflects a 7% discount to book value,

(y) acquire 100% ownership of the Amy Clemons McCall, a 2014 build fast support vessel, previously operated under lease and now pledged as collateral under the 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility, and

(z) satisfy accrued and unpaid interest, fees, and general corporate purposes. The funds available under the 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility were fully drawn on September 14, 2023.

The 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility matures on September 14, 2028, with quarterly amortization of 2.5% of the initial loan advanced thereunder, with the remaining outstanding principal amount due on the maturity date. The 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility bears interest at a fixed rate of 11.75% per annum.

The loan may be prepaid at any time in amounts of $1,000,000 or greater, subject to: (a) prior to the 12-month anniversary of funding, a premium equal to the remaining unpaid interest due over the first 15 months of the loan, and (b) after the 12-month anniversary of funding and prior to the 30-month anniversary of funding, a decreasing premium ranging from 3.00% to 1.00% of the amount prepaid.

The 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility contains customary covenants for financings of this type including financial maintenance and restrictive covenants, such as the aggregate collateral vessel value to the sum of the outstanding principal amounts of the loans. The 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility restricts the payment of dividends and distributions and the ability of the borrower and subsidiary guarantors to make certain investments, subject to important exceptions. In addition, the 2023 SEACOR Marine Foreign Holdings Credit Facility includes customary events of default.

SEACOR Marine issued a guaranty with respect to the obligations of the Borrower under the 2023 SMFH Credit Agreement and related documents (the “2023 SMFH Credit Facility Guaranty”). The 2023 SMFH Credit Facility Guaranty includes, among other customary covenants, various financial covenants, including (A) minimum Cash and Cash Equivalents (as defined in the 2023 SMFH Credit Agreement) of the higher of $20.0 million and 7.5% of Net Interest-Bearing Debt (as defined in the 2023 SMFH Credit Agreement), (B) minimum Equity Ratio (as defined in the 2023 SMFH Credit Agreement) of 35%, and (C) maximum Debt-to-Capitalization Ratio (as defined in the 2023 SMFH Credit Agreement) of 65%. The 2023 SMFH Credit Facility Guaranty also

restricts the payment of dividends and distributions and includes certain restrictions on the prepayment of unsecured indebtedness.

SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility. On September 8, 2023, SEACOR Marine entered into an amended and restated guaranty (“A&R SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility Guaranty”) with respect to the SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility. The A&R SEACOR Alpine Credit Facility Guaranty aligns the financial covenants and conditions relating to the payment of dividends and distributions reflected therein with those reflected in the 2023 SMFH Credit Facility Guaranty described above.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

With the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of September 30, 2023. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2023 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those internal control systems determined to be effective can provide only a level of reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Current Year Quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

At the Market Offering.

On November 1, 2023, SEACOR Marine entered into an at-the-market sales agreement (the “sales agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (the “sales agent”), relating to the issuance and sale from time to time by SEACOR Marine (the “ATM Offering”), through the sales agent, of shares of SEACOR Marine’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $25.0 million (the “ATM Shares”). Sales of the ATM Shares, if any, under the sales agreement may be made in ordinary brokers’ transactions, to or through a market maker, on or through the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), the existing trading market for SEACOR Marine’s Common Stock, or any other market venue where SEACOR Marine’s Common Stock may be traded, in the over-the-counter market, in privately negotiated transactions, or through a combination of any such methods of sale. The sales agent may also sell the ATM Shares by any other method permitted by law.

Under the terms of the sales agreement, SEACOR Marine may also sell ATM Shares to the sales agent, as principal for its own account, including a block trade, at a price agreed upon at the time of sale. If SEACOR

 

52


 

Marine sells ATM Shares to the sales agent as principal, SEACOR Marine will enter into a separate terms agreement with the sales agent and will describe any such agreement in a separate prospectus supplement or pricing supplement.

The sales agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by SEACOR Marine and customary obligations of the parties and termination provisions. SEACOR Marine has agreed to indemnify the sales agent against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or to contribute to payments the sales agent may be required to make with respect to any of those liabilities. Under the terms of the sales agreement, SEACOR Marine will pay the sales agent a commission of up to 3% of the gross sales price of any ATM Shares sold.

The ATM Shares to be sold under the sales agreement, if any, will be issued and sold pursuant to the prospectus forming a part of SEACOR Marine’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-262447), which was filed by SEACOR Marine with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 1, 2022 and became effective on February 11, 2022, and the Company will file a prospectus supplement with the SEC related to the ATM Shares. SEACOR Marine plans to use the net proceeds from any sales of ATM Shares pursuant to the sales agreement for general corporate purposes, which may include additions to working capital, capital expenditures, repayment of debt, or the financing of possible acquisitions and investments.

The offering of common stock pursuant to the sales agreement will terminate upon the earliest of (1) the sale of ATM Shares with an aggregate gross sales price of $25.0 million or (2) the termination of the sales agreement by SEACOR Marine or by the sales agent, with respect to the sales agent only.

The foregoing description of the sales agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the sales agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and is incorporated herein by reference. In connection with the ATM Offering, Milbank LLP provided the Company with the legal opinion attached to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as Exhibit 5.1.

The sales agent and its related entities have engaged, and may in the future engage, in commercial and investment banking transactions with the Company in the ordinary course of their businesses. They have received, and expect to receive, customary compensation and expense reimbursement for these commercial and investment banking transactions.

The disclosure about the ATM Offering shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Common Stock discussed herein, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation, or sale of common stock in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.

At Market Issuance Sales Agreement

B. Riley Securities, Inc.
299 Park Avenue, 21

New York, New York 10171

Ladies and Gentlemen:

SEACOR Marine Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), confirms its agreement (this “Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (the “Agent”), as follows:

1.
Issuance and Sale of Shares. The Company agrees that, from time to time during the term of this Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, it may issue and sell through or to the Agent, as sales agent or principal, shares (the “Placement Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Company issue or sell through the Agent such number or dollar amount of Placement Shares that would (a) exceed the number or dollar amount of shares of Common Stock registered on the currently effective Registration Statement (defined below) pursuant to which the offering is being made, (b) exceed the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (less shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of any outstanding securities of the Company or otherwise reserved from the Company’s authorized capital stock), (c) exceed the number or dollar amount of shares of Common Stock permitted to be sold under Form S-3 (including General Instruction I.B.6 thereof, if applicable) or (d) exceed the number or dollar amount of shares of Common Stock for which the Company has filed a Prospectus Supplement (defined below) (the lesser of (a), (b), (c) and (d), the “Maximum Amount”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto agree that compliance with the limitations set forth in this Section 1 on the amount of Placement Shares issued and sold under this Agreement shall be the sole responsibility of the Company and that the Agent shall have no obligation in connection with such compliance. The offer and sale of Placement Shares through the Agent will be effected pursuant to the Registration Statement (as defined below), although nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring the Company to use the Registration Statement to issue Placement Shares.

The Company has filed, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and the rules and regulations thereunder, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-262447), including a base prospectus, relating to certain securities, including the Common Stock to be issued from time to time by the Company, and which incorporates by reference documents that the Company has filed or will file in accordance with the provisions of the

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder. The Company has prepared a prospectus or a prospectus supplement to the base prospectus included as part of the registration statement, which prospectus or prospectus supplement relates to the Placement Shares to be issued from time to time by the Company. The Company will furnish to the Agent, for use by the Agent, copies of the prospectus included as part of such registration statement, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, relating to the Placement Shares to be issued from time to time by the Company. The Company may file one or more additional registration statements from time to time that will contain a base prospectus and related prospectus or prospectus supplement, if applicable (which shall be a Prospectus Supplement), with respect to the Placement Shares.

Except where the context otherwise requires, such registration statement(s), including all documents filed as part thereof or incorporated by reference therein, and including any information contained in a Prospectus (defined below) subsequently filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act or deemed to be a part of such registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B of the Securities Act, is herein called the “Registration Statement,” and the related prospectus covering the Common Stock dated February 11, 2022 filed as part of the Registration Statement, in the form in which it has most recently been filed with the Commission on or prior to the date of this Agreement, is hereinafter referred to as the “Base Prospectus”. “Prospectus Supplement” means the final prospectus supplement covering the Placement Shares, filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, in the form furnished by the Company to the Agent in connection with the offering of the Placement Shares. Except where the context otherwise requires, “Prospectus” means the Base Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement and the most recent Interim Prospectus Supplement, if any. As used herein, any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus or any Interim Prospectus Supplement shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein (the “Incorporated Documents”), including, unless the context otherwise requires, the documents, if any, filed as exhibits to such Incorporated Documents. Any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus, any Interim Prospectus Supplement or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document subsequently filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act and incorporated by reference therein. For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or to any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to include the most recent copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval system, or if applicable, the Interactive Data Electronic Application system when used by the Commission (collectively, “EDGAR”).

2.
Placements. Each time that the Company wishes to issue and sell Placement Shares hereunder (each, a “Placement”), it will notify the Agent by email notice (or other method mutually agreed to by the parties) of the number of Placement Shares to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, any limitation on the number of Placement Shares that may be sold in any one day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made (a “Placement Notice”), the form of which is attached hereto as Schedule 1. The Placement Notice shall originate from any of the individuals from the Company set forth on Schedule 3 (with a copy

2

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

to each of the other individuals from the Company listed on such schedule) and shall be addressed to each of the individuals from the Agent set forth on Schedule 3, as such Schedule 3 may be amended from time to time. The Placement Notice shall be effective unless and until (i) the Agent declines in writing to accept the terms contained therein for any reason, in its sole discretion, which declination must occur within two (2) Business Days of the receipt of the Placement Notice, (ii) the entire amount of the Placement Shares thereunder have been sold, (iii) the Company amends, supersedes, suspends or terminates the Placement Notice or (iv) this Agreement has been terminated under the provisions of Section 13. The amount of any discount, commission or other compensation to be paid by the Company to the Agent in connection with the Agent’s sale of the Placement Shares shall be calculated in accordance with the terms set forth in Schedule 2. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that neither the Company nor the Agent will have any obligation whatsoever with respect to a Placement or any Placement Shares unless and until the Company delivers a Placement Notice to the Agent and the Agent does not decline (and the Company does not suspend or terminate) such Placement Notice pursuant to the terms set forth above, and then only upon the terms specified therein and herein. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of a Placement Notice, the terms of the Placement Notice will control.
3.
Sale of Placement Shares by the Agent. Subject to the provisions of Section 5(a), the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, for the period specified in the Placement Notice, and unless the sale of the Placement Shares described therein has been declined, suspended or otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), to sell the Placement Shares up to the amount specified, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice. The Agent will provide written confirmation to the Company no later than the opening of the Trading Day (as defined below) immediately following the Trading Day on which it has made sales of Placement Shares hereunder setting forth the number of Placement Shares sold on such day, the compensation payable by the Company to the Agent pursuant to Section 2 with respect to such sales, and the Net Proceeds (as defined below) payable to the Company, with an itemization of the deductions made by the Agent (as set forth in Section 5(a)) from the gross proceeds that it receives from such sales. Subject to the terms of the Placement Notice, the Agent may sell Placement Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act, including sales made directly on or through the Exchange or any other existing trading market for the Common Stock, in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices and/or any other method permitted by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no sale may be made in a privately negotiated transaction by the Agent pursuant to this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that the Agent will be successful in selling Placement Shares, (ii) the Agent will incur no liability or obligation to the Company or any other person or entity if it does not sell Placement Shares for any reason other than a failure by the Agent to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations to sell such Placement Shares as required under this Agreement and (iii) the Agent shall be under no obligation to purchase Placement Shares on a principal basis pursuant to this

3

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

Agreement, except as otherwise agreed by the Agent and the Company. “Trading Day” means any day on which Common Stock is traded on the Exchange.
4.
Suspension of Sales. The Company or the Agent may, upon notice to the other party in writing (including by email correspondence to each of the individuals of the other party set forth on Schedule 3, if receipt of such correspondence is actually acknowledged by any of the individuals to whom the notice is sent, other than via auto-reply) or by telephone (confirmed immediately by verifiable facsimile transmission or email correspondence to each of the individuals of the other party set forth on Schedule 3), suspend any sale of Placement Shares (a “Suspension”); provided, however, that such Suspension shall not affect or impair any party’s obligations with respect to any Placement Shares sold hereunder prior to the receipt of such notice. While a Suspension is in effect, any obligation under Sections 7(k), 7(l), and 7(m) with respect to the delivery of certificates, opinions, or comfort letters to the Agent, shall be waived. Each of the parties agrees that no such notice under this Section 4 shall be effective against any other party unless it is made to one of the individuals named on Schedule 3 hereto, as such Schedule may be amended from time to time.
5.
Settlement and Delivery to the Agent.
(a)
Settlement of Placement Shares. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Placement Notice, settlement for sales of Placement Shares will occur on the second (2nd) Trading Day (or such earlier day as is industry practice for regular-way trading) following the date on which such sales are made (each, a “Settlement Date”). The Agent shall notify the Company of each sale of Placement Shares no later than the opening of the Trading Day immediately following the Trading Day on which it has made sales of Placement Shares hereunder. The amount of proceeds to be delivered to the Company on a Settlement Date against receipt of the Placement Shares sold (the “Net Proceeds”) will be equal to the aggregate sales price received by the Agent, after deduction for (i) the Agent’s commission, discount or other compensation for such sales payable by the Company pursuant to Section 2 hereof, and (ii) any transaction fees imposed by any Governmental Authority (as defined below) in respect of such sales.
(b)
Delivery of Placement Shares. On or before each Settlement Date, the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically transfer the Placement Shares being sold by crediting the account of the Agent, or its designee’s account (provided the Agent shall have given the Company written notice of such designee and such designee’s account information at least one Trading Day prior to the Settlement Date) at The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto which in all cases shall be freely tradable, transferable, registered shares in good deliverable form. On each Settlement Date, the Agent will deliver the related Net Proceeds in same day funds to an account designated by the Company on, or prior to, the Settlement Date. Upon request by the Company, the Agent will provide DWAC instructions or other instructions for delivery by other means with respect to the transfer of the Placement Shares being sold. The Company agrees that if the Company, or its transfer agent (if applicable), defaults in its obligation to deliver Placement Shares on a Settlement Date through no fault of the Agent, then in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Section 11(a) hereto, it will (i) hold the Agent harmless against any loss, claim, damage, or reasonable,

4

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

documented expense (including reasonable and documented legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Company or its transfer agent (if applicable) through no fault of the Agent and (ii) pay to the Agent (without duplication) any commission, discount, or other compensation to which it would otherwise have been entitled absent such default.
(c)
Limitations on Offering Size. Under no circumstances shall the Company cause or request the offer or sale of any Placement Shares if, after giving effect to the sale of such Placement Shares, the aggregate gross sales proceeds of Placement Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement would exceed the lesser of (A) together with all sales of Placement Shares under this Agreement, the Maximum Amount and (B) the amount authorized from time to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement by the Company’s board of directors, a duly authorized committee thereof or a duly authorized executive committee, and notified to the Agent in writing. Under no circumstances shall the Company cause or request the offer or sale of any Placement Shares pursuant to this Agreement at a price lower than the minimum price authorized from time to time by the Company’s board of directors, a duly authorized committee thereof or a duly authorized executive committee. Further, under no circumstances shall cause or permit the aggregate offering amount of Placement Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement to exceed the Maximum Amount.
6.
Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with the Agent that as of the date of this Agreement and as of each Applicable Time (as defined below), unless such representation, warranty or agreement specifies a different date or time:
(a)
Registration Statement and Prospectus.

against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Authority, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above,

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made solely in reliance upon and in conformity with the Agent Information (as defined below).

(b)
Indemnification by the Agent. The Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors and officers, and each person, if any, who (i) controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange

26

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

Act or (ii) is controlled by or is under common control with the Company against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 11(a), as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendments thereto), the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to the Agent and furnished to the Company in writing by the Agent expressly for use therein. The Company hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Agent has furnished to the Company expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in the ninth and tenth paragraphs under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Prospectus (the “Agent Information”).
(c)
Procedure. Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 11 will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Section 11, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from (i) any liability that it might have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 11 and (ii) any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provisions of this Section 11 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any other legal expenses except as provided below and except for the reasonable and documented costs of investigation subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action or counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in each case, within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action; in each of which cases the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable and

27

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

documented fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm (plus local counsel) admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. All such fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party after notice received by the indemnified person. An indemnifying party will not, in any event, be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of each indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding relating to the matters contemplated by this Section 11 (whether or not any indemnified party is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (1) includes an express and unconditional release of each indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (2) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(d)
Settlement Without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 11(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (1) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (2) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (3) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.
(e)
[Reserved.]
(f)
Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 11 is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable or insufficient from the Company or the Agent, the Company and the Agent will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) to which the Company and the Agent may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Agent on the other hand. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Agent on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the sale of the Placement Shares (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total compensation received by the Agent from the sale of Placement Shares on behalf of the Company. If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Agent, on the other hand, with respect to the statements or omission that resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations with respect to such offering. Such relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a

28

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Agent, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 11(f) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense, or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 11(f) shall be deemed to include, for the purpose of this Section 11(f), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim to the extent consistent with Section 11(c) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11(f), the Agent shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the commissions received by it under this Agreement and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 11(f), any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Securities Act, any affiliates of the Agent and any officers, directors, partners, employees or agents of the Agent or any of its affiliates, will have the same rights to contribution as that party, and each director of the Company and each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 11(f), will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify will not relieve that party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 11(f) except to the extent that the failure to so notify such other party materially prejudiced the substantive rights or defenses of the party from whom contribution is sought. Except for a settlement entered into pursuant to the last sentence of Section 11(c) hereof, no party will be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent if such consent is required pursuant to Section 11(c) hereof.
12.
Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in Section 11 of this Agreement and all representations and warranties of the Company herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive, as of their respective dates, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agent, any controlling persons, or the Company (or any of their respective officers, directors or controlling persons), (ii) delivery and acceptance of the Placement Shares and payment therefor or (iii) any termination of this Agreement.
13.
Termination.
(a)
The Agent may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, as hereinafter specified at any time (1) if there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the date as of which information is given in the Prospectus, any Material Adverse Effect, or any development that would have a Material Adverse Effect that, in the sole judgment of the Agent is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to market the Placement Shares or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Placement Shares, (2) if there has occurred any

29

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Agent, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Placement Shares or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Placement Shares, (3) if trading in the Common Stock has been suspended or limited by the Commission or the Exchange, or if trading generally on the Exchange has been suspended or limited, or minimum prices for trading have been fixed on the Exchange, (4) if any suspension of trading of any securities of the Company on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market shall have occurred and be continuing, (5) if a major disruption of securities settlements or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred and be continuing, or (6) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either U.S. Federal or New York authorities. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 9 (Payment of Expenses), Section 11 (Indemnification and Contribution), Section 12 (Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery), Section 18 (Governing Law and Time; Waiver of Jury Trial) and Section 19 (Consent to Jurisdiction) hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. If the Agent elects to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 13(a), the Agent shall provide the required notice as specified in Section 14 (Notices).
(b)
The Company shall have the right, by giving five (5) days’ notice as hereinafter specified to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time after the date of this Agreement. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 9, Section 11, Section 12, Section 18 and Section 19 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.
(c)
The Agent shall have the right, by giving five (5) days’ notice as hereinafter specified to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time after the date of this Agreement. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 9, Section 11, Section 12, Section 18 and Section 19 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.
(d)
Unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Section 13, this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the issuance and sale of all of the Placement Shares through the Agent on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, except that the provisions of Section 9, Section 11, Section 12, Section 18 and Section 19 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.
(e)
This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless terminated pursuant to Sections 13(a), (b), (c) or (d) above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties; provided, however, that any such termination by mutual agreement shall in all cases be deemed to provide that Section 9, Section 11, Section 12, Section 18 and Section 19 shall remain in full force and effect. Upon termination of this Agreement, the Company shall not have any liability to the Agent for any discount, commission or other compensation with respect to any Placement Shares not otherwise sold by the Agent under this Agreement.

30

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

(f)
Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided, however, that such termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by the Agent or the Company, as the case may be. If such termination shall occur prior to the Settlement Date for any sale of Placement Shares, such Placement Shares shall settle in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstance, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable as written by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such provision shall be given full force and effect to the fullest possible extent that it is valid, legal and enforceable, and the remainder of the terms and provisions herein shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision was not contained herein, but only to the extent that giving effect to such provision and the remainder of the terms and provisions hereof shall be in accordance with the intent of the parties as reflected in this Agreement. No implied waiver by a party shall arise in the absence of a waiver in writing signed by such party. No failure or delay in exercising any right, power, or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial

32

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any right, power, or privilege hereunder.
18.
GOVERNING LAW AND TIME; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

SPECIFIED TIMES OF DAY REFER TO NEW YORK CITY TIME.

EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS TO PROCESS BEING SERVED IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF (CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED) TO SUCH PARTY AT THE ADDRESS IN EFFECT FOR NOTICES TO IT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREES THAT SUCH SERVICE SHALL CONSTITUTE GOOD AND SUFFICIENT SERVICE OF PROCESS AND NOTICE THEREOF.

Delivery of an executed Agreement by one party to the other may be made by facsimile or electronic transmission.
21.
Construction. The section and exhibit headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. References herein to any law, statute, ordinance, code, regulation, rule or other requirement of any Governmental Authority shall be deemed to refer to such law, statute, ordinance, code, regulation, rule or other requirement of any Governmental Authority as amended, reenacted, supplemented or superseded in whole or in part and in effect from time to time and also to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
22.
Permitted Free Writing Prospectuses. The Company represents, warrants and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be

33

 

DB2/ 46767468.11

 


 

unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the Agent represents, warrants and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Company, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Placement Shares that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 405, required to be filed with the Commission. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Agent or by the Company, as the case may be, is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The Company represents and warrants that it has treated and agrees that it will treat each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, and has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission where required, legending and record keeping. For the purposes of clarity, the parties hereto agree that all free writing prospectuses, if any, listed in Exhibit 23 hereto are Permitted Free Writing Prospectuses.
23.
Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that:
(a)
the Agent is acting solely as agent in connection with the public offering of the Placement Shares and in connection with each transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the process leading to such transactions, and no fiduciary or advisory relationship between the Company or any of its respective affiliates, stockholders (or other equity holders), creditors or employees or any other party, on the one hand, and the Agent, on the other hand, has been or will be created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, irrespective of whether or not the Agent has advised or is advising the Company on other matters, and the Agent has no obligation to the Company with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement;
(b)
it is capable of evaluating and understanding, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;
(c)
the Agent has not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and it has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate;
(d)
it is aware that the Agent and its affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions which may involve interests that differ from those of the Company and the Agent and its affiliates have no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to the Company by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship or otherwise; and
(e)
it waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against the Agent or its affiliates for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the sale of Placement Shares under this Agreement and agrees that the Agent and its affiliates shall not have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to it in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on its behalf or in right of it or the Company, employees or creditors of the Company.
24.

Pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Company is offering up to $25,000,000 of shares (the “Shares”) of its common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”). The Shares are to be offered and sold, from time to time, by the Company pursuant to a Sales Agreement dated November 1, 2023 (the “Sales Agreement”) between the Company and the agent named therein (the “Agent”).

This opinion letter is being delivered in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.

issuance of the Shares by the Company. We have also examined originals, or copies of originals certified to our satisfaction, of such agreements, documents, certificates and statements of the Company and other corporate documents and instruments, and have examined such questions of law, as we have considered relevant and necessary as a basis for this opinion letter. We have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to or obtained by us as originals, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all persons and the conformity with the original documents of any copies thereof submitted to or obtained by us for examination. As to facts relevant to the opinions expressed herein, we have relied without independent investigation or verification upon, and assumed the accuracy and completeness of, certificates, letters and oral and written statements and representations of public officials and officers and other representatives of the Company, including the representations and warranties made in the Sales Agreement.

Based on and subject to the foregoing and the other limitations, qualifications and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that the issuance and sale of the Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement have been duly authorized by the Company and, when (A) the number of Shares to be offered, issued and sold by the Company from time to time and the respective purchase prices, Agent’s discounts or commissions, and times and dates of offering, issuance and sale, and the offering, issuance and sale thereof, have been duly authorized and approved by duly authorized officers of the Company, all as provided in, and in compliance with the parameters, limitations and other terms set forth in resolutions duly adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors or any duly authorized committees thereof, and agreed upon by the Company, the Agent and the purchasers thereof and (B) such Shares are duly issued and delivered by the Company in accordance with the Sales Agreement against receipt by the Company of the agreed upon purchase price therefor), will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

In rendering the opinion set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, we have assumed that the net proceeds received by the Company (after deduction of discounts and commissions) for each Share issued or sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement will equal or exceed the par value thereof and that, at the time of any issuance of Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement, the number of such Shares will not exceed the number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock that have not been reserved for issuance for other purposes.

We note that the Company’s Board of Directors adopted resolutions on November 1, 2023 (the “Resolutions”) authorizing the issuance and sale of up to $25,000,000 shares of Common Stock in one or more “at-the-market” offerings, including the offering of the Shares contemplated by the Sales Agreement (collectively, “Offerings”), and upon the conversion, exercise or settlement of certain securities,

agreements and rights issued or sold in or in connection with the Offerings. The Resolutions establish a minimum price per share of Common Stock to be received by the Company. Accordingly, and without limitation to the provisions of clauses (A) or (B) of the second preceding paragraph, we have assumed that the Company’s offering, issuance and sale of Shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement will comply with such minimum price per share and the other terms and provisions of the Resolutions (and any other limitations, parameters or other terms or provisions applicable to the offering, issuance or sale of the Shares that may be established by resolutions duly adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors or any committee thereof from time to time).

This opinion letter is limited to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. We express no opinion as to any other laws, rules or regulations, including, without limitation, the federal laws of the United States of America or any state securities or blue sky laws.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as an Exhibit to the Registration Statement and to all references to our Firm included in or made a part of the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act.

Very truly yours,
