CONDENSED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Business and Basis of Presentation

RigNet, Inc. (the Company or RigNet) provides remote communication services for the oil and gas industry through a controlled and managed Internet Protocol/Multiprotocol Label Switching (IP/MPLS) global network, enabling drilling contractors, oil companies and oilfield service companies to communicate more effectively. The Company provides its customers with voice, fax, video and data services in real-time between remote sites and home offices throughout the world, while the Company manages and operates the infrastructure from its land-based Network Operations Center.

The Company’s corporate offices are located in Houston, Texas. The Company serves the owners and operators of offshore drilling rigs and production facilities, land rigs, remote offices and supply bases in approximately 30 countries including the United States, Brazil, Norway, the United Kingdom, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and Australia.

The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company include all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying footnotes. Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be perceived with certainty. Estimates may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information becomes available and as the Company’s operating environment changes. Actual results could differ from estimates. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 8, 2012.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04 ("ASU 2011-04"), Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Some of the key amendments to the fair value measurement guidance include the highest and best use and valuation premise for nonfinancial assets, application to financial assets and financial liabilities with offsetting positions in market risks or counterparty credit risk, premiums or discounts in fair value measurement and fair value of an instrument classified in a reporting entity's shareholders' equity. Additional disclosures for fair value measurements categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy include a quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions used in the measurement, a description of the valuation processes in place, a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs and interrelationships between those inputs and the level in the fair value hierarchy of items that are not measured at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet but whose fair value must be disclosed. ASU 2011-04 became effective for the Company's annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material effect on the disclosures contained in the condensed notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: Testing Goodwill for Impairment” (“Update 2011-08”) which permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. The adoption of Update 2011-08 did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as it is a change in application of the goodwill impairment test only.

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted Update No. 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05.” This update requires the presentation of the components of net income and other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. The requirement to present reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income on the face of the financial statement has been deferred by the FASB. Net income and other comprehensive income have been presented in a single continuous statement for the current reporting period and prior comparative period in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 – Business and Credit Concentrations

The Company is exposed to various business and credit risks including interest rate, foreign currency, credit and liquidity risks.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company has significant interest-bearing liabilities at variable interest rates which generally price monthly. The Company’s variable borrowing rates are tied to LIBOR and prime resulting in interest rate risk (see Note 5 – “Long-Term Debt”). The Company does not currently use financial instruments to hedge these interest risk exposures, but evaluates this on a continual basis and may put financial instruments in place in the future if deemed necessary.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company has exposure to foreign currency risk, as a portion of the Company’s activities are conducted in currencies other than U.S. dollars. Currently, the Norwegian kroner and the British pound sterling are the currencies that could materially impact the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The Company’s historical experience with exchange rates for these currencies has been relatively stable, and, consequently, the Company does not use financial instruments to hedge this risk, but evaluates it on a continual basis and may put financial instruments in place in the future if deemed necessary. Foreign currency translations are reported as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Credit Risk

Credit risk, with respect to accounts receivable, is due to the limited number of customers concentrated in the oil and gas industry. The Company mitigates the risk of financial loss from defaults through defined collection terms in each contract or service agreement and periodic evaluations of the collectability of accounts receivable. The evaluations include a review of customer credit reports and past transaction history with the customer. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts which is adjusted when the Company becomes aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations or as a result of changes in the overall aging of accounts receivable.

Liquidity Risk

The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances with major financial institutions which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company monitors the financial condition of the financial institutions and has not experienced losses associated with these accounts during 2012 or 2011. Liquidity risk is managed by continuously monitoring forecasted and actual cash flows and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities (see Note 5 – “Long-Term Debt”).

Note 3 – Initial Public Offering and Preferred Stock

Initial Public Offering

On December 20, 2010, the Company completed an initial public offering (IPO) consisting of 5,000,000 shares of common stock priced at $12.00 per share. The total shares sold in the offering consisted of 1,666,666 shares sold by selling stockholders and 3,333,334 shares issued and sold by the Company.

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

As a result of the IPO, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $35.4 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $2.8 million and additional offering related expenses of $1.8 million, of which $0.8 million was paid during the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 with the balance paid during the three months ended March 31, 2011. From these net proceeds, the Company used $0.2 million to compensate our key employees, including executive officers and $0.2 million was used to pay accrued and unpaid dividends on preferred shares that were converted in connection with the IPO.

On January 6, 2011, the underwriters of the IPO exercised their over-allotment option (Over-Allotment) for the sale of 750,000 shares of common stock at $12.00 per share. The total shares sold in the Over-Allotment included 250,000 common shares sold by selling stockholders and 500,000 common shares issued and sold by the Company. Net proceeds to the Company from the sale of shares in the Over-Allotment were $5.5 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $0.4 million and additional offering related expenses of $0.1 million.

The Company anticipates that the remaining net proceeds from the IPO and the Over-Allotment will be used for capital expenditures, working capital and other general corporate purposes, which may include the acquisition of other businesses, products or technologies. However, RigNet has no agreements or commitments for any specific acquisitions at this time.

Note 4 – Goodwill and Intangibles

Goodwill

Goodwill relates to the acquisitions of LandTel Communications LLC (LandTel) and OilCamp AS (OilCamp) as the consideration paid exceeded the fair value of acquired identifiable net tangible assets and intangibles. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually with additional evaluations being performed when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. The Company performs its annual impairment test on July 31st, with the most recent test being performed as of July 31, 2011. This test resulted in no impairment. No impairment indicators have been identified through March 31, 2012. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, goodwill was $13.9 million and $13.8 million, respectively. Goodwill increases or decreases in value due to the effect of foreign currency translation.

Intangibles

Intangibles consist of customer relationships acquired as part of the LandTel and OilCamp acquisitions, as well as internal-use software. The Company’s intangibles have useful lives ranging from five to nine years and are amortized on a straight-line basis. Impairment testing is performed when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. No impairment indicators have been identified as of March 31, 2012. During the three months ended March 31. 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized amortization expense of $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

Term Loan

The Company has a term loan (Term Loan) with two participating financial institutions. In May 2011, the Company amended its Term Loan, increasing the principal balance by $0.1 million, extending the maturity of the loan to May 2014 and removing the requirement to maintain compensating cash balances.

Additionally, the amended Term Loan bears a reduced interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 2.25% to 3.25%, based on a ratio of funded debt to Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure as defined in the agreement. Interest is payable monthly along with quarterly principal installments of $2.2 million, with the balance due May 31, 2014. The weighted average interest rate for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was 2.9%, with an interest rate of 2.5% at March 31, 2012.

The Term Loan is secured by substantially all the assets of the Company. As of March 31, 2012, the Term Loan had outstanding principal of $21.3 million.

Covenants and Restrictions

The Company’s Term Loan contains certain covenants and restrictions, including restricting the payment of cash dividends under default and maintaining certain financial covenants such as a ratio of funded debt to Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure as defined in the agreement, and a fixed charge coverage ratio. If any default occurs related to these covenants, the unpaid principal and any accrued interest shall be declared immediately due and payable. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company believes it was in compliance with all covenants.

Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements

The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

 

   

Cash and Cash Equivalents — Reported amounts approximate fair value.

 

   

Accounts Receivable — Reported amounts, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, approximate fair value.

 

   

Accounts Payable, Including Income Taxes Payable and Accrued Expenses — Reported amounts approximate fair value.

Table of Contents

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

   

Long-Term Debt — The carrying amount of the Company’s floating-rate debt approximates fair value since the interest rates paid are based on short-term maturities and recent quoted rates from financial institutions. The estimated fair value of debt was based upon observable (Level 2) inputs regarding interest rates available to the Company at the end of each respective period.

Note 7 – Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate was 46.2% and 99.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our effective tax rates are affected by factors including fluctuations in income across jurisdictions with varying tax rates, changes in valuation allowances related to operating in a loss jurisdiction for which a benefit cannot be claimed, and changes in income tax reserves, including related penalties and interest. The variance in the effective tax rate between the reporting periods was primarily impacted by the recognition of taxable deemed distributions in the domestic jurisdiction for the March 31, 2011 period.

The Company has computed the provision for taxes related to the domestic jurisdiction in March 31, 2011, and all jurisdictions for the period ending March 31, 2012, based on the actual effective tax rate by applying the discrete method. The Company’s forecast for those jurisdictions in the respective periods did not provide the level of detail necessary to calculate a forecasted effective tax rate.

The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently performing an audit of the Company’s 2010 income tax return. It is unclear if the audit and the appeals process, if necessary, will be completed within the next twelve months and the Company is unable to quantify any potential settlement or outcome of the audit at this time as the IRS is still in the initial phase of the audit and is currently gathering and examining taxpayer information. The Company does not anticipate significant changes in the remaining unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

Note 8 – Stock-Based Compensation

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company granted 80,784 shares of restricted stock to certain officers and employees of the Company under the 2010 Omnibus Incentive Plan (2010 Plan). Restricted shares have no exercise price and are considered issued and outstanding common stock. These restricted shares vest over a four year period of continued employment, with 25% of shares vesting on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company also granted 215,563 stock options to certain officers and employees of the Company under the 2010 Plan. Options granted during this period have an exercise price of $17.08, a contractual term of ten years and vest over a four year period of continued employment, with 25% of shares vesting on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date.

The fair value of restricted stock is determined based on the closing trading price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date of the award. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the entire award.

The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the grant date using a Black-Scholes option valuation model, which uses certain assumptions as of the date of grant. The assumptions used for the stock option grants made during the three months ended March 31, 2012, were as follows:

 

     Three Months Ended
March 31,
 
     2012     2011  

Expected volatility

     50     50

Expected term (in years)

     7        7   

Risk-free interest rate

     2.8     2.8

Dividend yield

     —          —     

Based on these assumptions, the weighted average grant date fair value of stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2012, was $9.45 per option.

Stock-based compensation expense related to the Company’s stock-based compensation plans for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, was $0.6 million and $0.1 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2012, there was $5.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested options and restricted stock expected to vest. This cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 3.0 years.

Note 9 – Related Party Transactions

One of the Company’s directors is the president and chief executive officer of a drilling corporation which is also a customer of the Company. Revenue recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, for services performed by the Company in the ordinary course of business.

Note 10 – Income (Loss) per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) are computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to RigNet common stockholders by the number of basic shares outstanding. Basic shares equal the total of the common shares outstanding, weighted for the average days outstanding for the period. Basic shares exclude the dilutive effect of common shares that could potentially be issued due to the exercise of stock options or the exercise of warrants. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to RigNet common stockholders by the number of diluted shares outstanding. Diluted shares equal the total of the basic shares outstanding and all potentially issuable shares, weighted for the average days outstanding for the period. The Company uses the treasury stock method to determine the dilutive effect.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, 1,483,806 shares of unexercised or unvested securities were included in the diluted earnings per share computation due to the dilutive effect. For three months ended March 31, 2011, basic and diluted shares outstanding are the same due to the anti-dilutive nature resulting from losses.

Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The Company, in the ordinary course of business, is a claimant or a defendant in various legal proceedings, including proceedings as to which the Company has insurance coverage and those that may involve the filing of liens against the Company or its assets. The Company does not consider its exposure in these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, to be material.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition And Results Of Operations

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2012 and for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 included elsewhere herein, and with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our annual report and elsewhere in this quarterly report. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. These statements may include statements about:

 

   

new regulations, delays in drilling permits or other changes in the drilling industry;

 

   

competition and competitive factors in the markets in which we operate;

 

   

demand for our products and services;

 

   

the advantages of our services compared to others;

 

   

changes in customer preferences and our ability to adapt our product and services offerings;

 

   

our ability to develop and maintain positive relationships with our customers;

 

   

our ability to retain and hire necessary employees and appropriately staff our marketing, sales and distribution efforts;

 

   

our cash needs and expectations regarding cash flow from operations;

 

   

our ability to manage and grow our business and execute our business strategy;

 

   

our strategy;

 

   

our financial performance; and

 

   

the costs associated with being a public company.

In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “may,” “expect,” “plan,” “project,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “pursue,” “target,” “continue,” the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All of these types of statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, are forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are largely based on Company expectations, which reflect estimates and assumptions made by Company management. These estimates and assumptions reflect management’s best judgment based on currently known market conditions and other factors. Although the Company believes such estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and involve a number of risks and uncertainties beyond its control. In addition, management’s assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. The Company cautions that the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not guarantees of future performance, and it cannot assure any reader that such statements will be realized or the forward-looking statements or events will occur. Future results may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in forward looking statements due to factors listed in the “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. If one or more of these factors materialize, or if any underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our future results, performance or achievements may vary materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and other than as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Executive Overview

We, along with our wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries, provide information and communication technology for the oil and gas industry through a controlled and managed IP/ MPLS global network, enabling drilling contractors, oil companies and oilfield service companies to communicate more effectively.

We enable our customers to deliver voice, fax, video and data, in real-time, between remote sites and home offices throughout the world while we manage and operate the infrastructure from our land-based network operations center. We serve offshore drilling rigs and production platforms, land rigs and remote locations including offices and supply bases, in over 30 countries on six continents.

Our Operations

We focus on developing customer relationships with the owners and operators of drilling rig fleets resulting in a significant portion of our revenue being concentrated in a few customers. In addition, due to the concentration of our customers in the oil and gas industry, we face the challenge of service demands fluctuating with the exploration and development plans and capital expenditures of that industry.

Network service customers are primarily served under fixed-price, day-rate contracts, which are based on the concept of pay per day of use and are consistent with terms used in the oil and gas industry. Our contracts are generally in the form of Master Service Agreements, or MSAs, with specific services being provided under individual service orders that have a term of one to three years with renewal options, while land-based locations are generally shorter term or terminable on short notice without a penalty. Service orders are executed under the MSA for individual remote sites or groups of sites, and generally may be terminated early on short notice without penalty in the event of force majeure, breach of the MSA or cold stacking of a drilling rig (when a rig is taken out of service and is expected to be idle for a protracted period of time). For the three months ended March 31, 2012, our largest customer, who has been our customer for over five years, provided approximately 13.6% of our total revenue. An increase of 3.2%, from the three months ended March 31, 2011.

We operate three reportable business segments based on geographic location, which are managed as distinct business units.

 

   

Eastern Hemisphere. Our eastern hemisphere segment provides remote communications services for offshore drilling rigs, production facilities, energy support vessels and other remote sites. Our eastern hemisphere segment services are performed out of our Norway, Qatar, United Kingdom and Singapore based offices for customers and rig sites located on the eastern side of the Atlantic Ocean primarily off the coasts of the United Kingdom, Norway and West Africa, around the Indian Ocean in Qatar, Saudi Arabia and India, around the Pacific Ocean near Australia, and within the South China Sea.

 

   

Western Hemisphere. Our western hemisphere segment provides remote communications services for offshore drilling rigs, production facilities, energy support vessels and other remote sites. Our western hemisphere segment services are performed out of our United States and Brazil based offices for customers and rig sites located on the western side of the Atlantic Ocean primarily off the coasts of the United States, Mexico and Brazil, and within the Gulf of Mexico, but excluding land rigs and other land-based sites in North America.

 

   

U.S. Land. Our U.S. land segment provides remote communications services for drilling rigs and production facilities located onshore in North America. Our U.S. land segment services are performed out of our Louisiana based office for customers and rig sites located in the continental United States.

Cost of revenue consists primarily of satellite charges, voice and data termination costs, network operations expenses, Internet connectivity fees and direct service labor. Satellite charges consist of the costs associated with obtaining satellite bandwidth (the measure of capacity) used in the transmission of service to and from leased satellites. Network operations expenses consist primarily of costs associated with the operation of our network operations center, which is maintained 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Depreciation and amortization is recognized on all property and equipment either installed at a customer’s site or held at our corporate and regional offices, as well as intangibles arising from acquisitions. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and commissions, travel costs and marketing communications. General and administrative expenses consist of expenses associated with our management, finance, contract, support and administrative functions.

Table of Contents

Profitability increases at a site as we add customers and value-added services. Assumptions used in developing the day rates for a site may not cover cost variances from inherent uncertainties or unforeseen obstacles, including both physical conditions and unexpected problems encountered with third party service providers. Profitability risks include oil and gas market trends, service responsiveness to remote locations, communication network complexities, political and economic instability in certain regions, export restrictions, licenses and other trade barriers. These risks may result in the delay of service initiation, which may negatively impact our results of operations.

NOTE: Consolidated balances include the three segments above along with corporate activities and intercompany eliminations.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

Revenue. Revenue increased by $6.7 million, or 27.6%, to $31.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $24.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to increases in each of our reportable segments. Eastern Hemisphere revenue increase $4.3 million, or 28.1%, and Western Hemisphere revenue increased $1.8 million, or 35.9%. Both the Eastern and Western Hemisphere changes are primarily due to increases in unit counts and increased revenue-per-unit resulting from bandwidth upgrades and additional value-added services provided. Additionally, U.S. Land revenue increased $0.7 million, or 16.3%, resulting from the continued recovery of the U.S. land-based drilling market and our widening geographic footprint in this market.

Cost of Revenue. Costs increased by $3.0 million to $14.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, primarily due to incremental network services and capacity required to serve the increased unit counts. Gross Profit increased by $3.7 million, or 28.1%, to $17.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $13.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As a percentage of revenue, Gross Profit remained relatively consistent at 54.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 54.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by $0.4 million to $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase resulted from the continued increase in our capital expenditures which totaled $6.0 million for the three months ended March 30, 2012.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by $1.2 million to $7.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase was primarily due to increased labor costs, stock-based compensation and costs resulting from efforts to strengthen our internal control over our financial reporting.

Income Tax Expense. Our effective income tax rate was 46.2% and 99.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our effective tax rates are affected by factors including fluctuations in income across jurisdictions with varying tax rates, changes in valuation allowances related to operating in a loss jurisdiction for which a benefit cannot be claimed, and changes in income tax reserves, including related penalties and interest. The variance in the effective tax rate between the reporting periods was primarily impacted by the recognition of taxable deemed distributions in the domestic jurisdiction for the March 31, 2011 period.

The Company has computed the provision for taxes related to the domestic jurisdiction in March 31, 2011, and all jurisdictions for the period ending March 31, 2012, based on the actual effective tax rate by applying the discrete method. The Company’s forecast for those jurisdictions in the respective periods did not provide the level of detail necessary to calculate a forecasted effective tax rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity and capital since our formation have been proceeds from private equity issuances, stockholder loans, cash flow from operations, bank borrowings and our IPO. To date, our primary use of capital has been to fund our growing operations and to finance acquisitions. Prior to our IPO, we raised approximately $38.3 million of net proceeds through private offerings of our common and preferred stock. In December 2010, we received net proceeds from our IPO of $35.4 million. As a result of the underwriters’ exercise of the Over-Allotment in January 2011, we received net cash proceeds of $5.5 million.

At March 31, 2012, we had working capital of $54.7 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $52.8 million, accounts receivable of $24.4 million and other current assets of $4.9 million, offset by $5.7 million in accounts payable, $6.2 million in accrued expenses, $8.7 million in current maturities of long-term debt, $5.4 million in tax related liabilities and $1.4 million in deferred revenue.

Over the past five years, we have spent $7.2 million to $19.0 million annually on capital expenditures. Based on our current expectations, we believe our liquidity and capital resources will be sufficient for the conduct of our business and operations for the foreseeable future. We may also use a portion of our available cash to finance growth through the acquisition of, or investment into, businesses, products, services or technologies complementary to our current business, through mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures or otherwise. However, we have no agreements or commitments for any specific acquisitions at this time.

During the next twelve months, we expect our principal sources of liquidity to be cash flows from operating activities. In forecasting our cash flows we have considered factors including contracted services related to long-term deepwater drilling programs, U.S. Land rig count trends, projected oil and natural gas prices and contracted and available satellite bandwidth.

Beyond the next twelve months, we expect our principal sources of liquidity to be cash flows provided by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents and additional financing activities we may pursue, which may include equity offerings.

While we believe we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet our current operating requirements and expansion plans, we may want to pursue additional expansion opportunities within the next year which could require additional financing, either debt or equity. If we are unable to secure additional financing at favorable terms in order to pursue such additional expansions opportunities, our ability to maintain our desired level of revenue growth could be materially adversely affected.

Currently, the Norwegian kroner and the British pound sterling are the currencies that could materially impact our liquidity. Our historical experience with exchange rates for these currencies has been relatively stable and, consequently, we do not currently hedge these risks, but evaluate these risks on a continual basis and may put financial instruments in place in the future if deemed necessary. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, 78.2% and 78.1% of our revenue was denominated in U.S. dollars, respectively.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in cash provided by operating activities during 2012 of $2.8 million was primarily due to the timing of collections of our accounts receivable, as well as the increased profitability of our core operations.

Our cash provided by operations is subject to many variables, the most significant of which is the volatility of the oil and gas industry and, therefore, the demand for our services. Other factors impacting operating cash flows include the availability and cost of satellite bandwidth, as well as the timing of collecting our receivables. Our future cash flow from operations will depend on our ability to increase our contracted services through our sales and marketing efforts while leveraging the contracted satellite and other communication service costs.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $6.9 million and $3.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Of these amounts virtually all were for capital expenditures. We expect capital expenditures to continue this growth during 2012 primarily resulting from growth opportunities arising from increasing demand for our offshore operations.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $(2.3) million and $2.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Cash provided by (used in) financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were attributable to $2.2 million of principal payments on our long-term debt made in each period. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, this outflow was partially offset by net proceeds from the underwriters’ exercise of the Over-Allotment in January 2011, from which we received net cash proceeds of $5.5 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $0.4 million and additional offering related expenses of $0.1 million paid during the period.

Term Loan

The Company has a term loan (Term Loan) with two participating financial institutions. In May 2011, the Company amended its Term Loan, increasing the principle balance by $0.1 million, extending the maturity of the loan to May 2014 and removing the requirement to maintain compensating cash balances.

Table of Contents

Additionally, the amended Term Loan bears a reduced interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 2.25% to 3.25%, based on a ratio of funded debt to Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure as defined in the agreement. Interest is payable monthly along with quarterly principal installments of $2.2 million, with the balance due May 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2012, the Term Loan had outstanding principal of $21.3 million. The weighted average interest rate for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was 2.9%, with an interest rate of 2.5% at March 31, 2012.

The Term Loan is secured by substantially all the assets of the Company.

Our term loan agreement imposes certain restrictions including our ability to obtain additional debt financing and on our payment of cash dividends. It also requires us to maintain certain financial covenants such as a funded debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio of less than or equal to 2.0 to 1.0 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.5 to 1.0. At March 31, 2012, our Adjusted EBITDA exceeded the minimum levels required by the: (i) fixed charge coverage ratio by $15.1 million (or 41.8% of our Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months) and (ii) funded debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio by $25.5 million (or 70.5% of our Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not engage in any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define Gross Profit as revenue less cost of revenue. This measure is used to evaluate operating margins and the effectiveness of cost management.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, impairment of goodwill, (gain) loss on retirement of property and equipment, change in fair value of derivatives, stock-based compensation and IPO costs and related bonuses. Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. The table below provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), operating income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because other companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures in the same manner as we do. We prepare Adjusted EBITDA to eliminate the impact of items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. We encourage you to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance for the following reasons:

 

   

Securities analysts use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies, and we understand our investor and analyst presentations include Adjusted EBITDA;

 

   

By comparing our Adjusted EBITDA in different periods, our investors may evaluate our operating results without the additional variations caused by items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance and which are not necessarily comparable from year to year; and

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA is an integral component of the financial ratio covenants of our debt agreement.

Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA:

 

   

To indicate profit contribution and cash flow availability for growth and/or debt retirement;

 

   

For planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and as a key element of annual incentive programs;

 

   

To allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business; and

 

   

In communications with our Board of Directors concerning our financial performance.

Table of Contents

Although Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or other contractual commitments;

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense;

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for income taxes;

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the stock based compensation component of employee compensation;

 

   

Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for these replacements; and

 

   

Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

The following table presents a reconciliation of our net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA.

We evaluate Adjusted EBITDA generated from our operations and operating segments to assess the potential recovery of historical capital expenditures, determine timing and investment levels for growth opportunities, extend commitments of satellite bandwidth cost to expand our offshore production platform and vessel market share, invest in new products and services, expand or open new offices, service centers and SOIL nodes, and assist purchasing synergies.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $2.7 million to $9.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, from $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This increase resulted from increases in unit counts served, additional demand for our services in our offshore operations and continued growth in the U.S. land drilling market, partially offset by increased costs of management salaries, stock-based compensation and efforts to strengthen our internal control over our financial reporting.

Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are subject to a variety of risks, including foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations relating to foreign operations and certain purchases from foreign vendors. In the normal course of business, we assess these risks and have established policies and procedures to manage our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency values.

Our objective in managing our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations is to reduce the impact of adverse fluctuations in earnings and cash flows associated with foreign currency exchange rates. We do not currently use foreign currency forward contracts to hedge our exposure on firm commitments denominated in foreign currencies, but evaluate this on a continual basis and may put financial instruments in place in the future if deemed necessary. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, 21.8% and 21.9% of our revenues were earned in non-U.S. currencies, respectively.

Our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in interest rates primarily from our variable interest rate long-term debt. We do not currently use financial instruments to hedge these interest risk exposures, but evaluate this on a continual basis and may put financial instruments in place in the future if deemed necessary. The following analysis reflects the annual impacts of potential changes in our interest rate to net income (loss) attributable to us and our total stockholders’ equity based on our outstanding long-term debt on March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, assuming those liabilities were outstanding for the previous twelve months:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2012. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that 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 a company in the reports that 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, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2011, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
