REPORT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Trico Marine
Services, Inc.:
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in
the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of Trico Marine Services, Inc. and its
subsidiaries at December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2008 in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial
statement schedule listed in the accompanying index presents
fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth
therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated
financial statements. Also, in our opinion, the Company
maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 based on
criteria established in Internal Control
Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The
Companys management is responsible for these financial
statements and the financial statement schedule, for maintaining
effective internal control over financial reporting and for its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over
financial reporting, included in Managements Report on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (not presented herein)
appearing under Item 9A of the Companys 2008 Annual
Report on
Form 10-K.
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial
statements, on the financial statement schedule and on the
Companys internal control over financial reporting based
on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance
with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement and
whether effective internal control over financial reporting was
maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial
statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal
control over financial reporting included obtaining an
understanding of internal control over financial reporting,
assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing
and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of
internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also
included performing such other procedures as we consider
necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.
As discussed in Note 2, the risk the Company may not
successfully complete a refinancing of its debt, obtain
amendments or waivers to financial covenants, and / or
the risk the Company may not have adequate liquidity to fund its
operations raise substantial doubt about the Companys
ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans
in regard to this matter are also described in Note 2. The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
As discussed in Note 11 to the consolidated financial
statements, on January 1, 2007, the Company changed the
manner in which it accounts for uncertain tax positions in
connection with its adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an
interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. As
discussed in Note 3 and Note 5 to the consolidated
financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it
accounts for certain convertible debt instruments and the manner
in which it accounts for noncontrolling interests effective
January 1, 2009.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a
process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A companys
internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance
of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that
F-2
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the
company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the
companys assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
As described in Managements Annual Report on Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting (not presented herein)
appearing under Item 9A of the Companys 2008 Annual
Report on
Form 10-K,
management has excluded DeepOcean ASA, and its wholly-owned
subsidiary CTC Marine Projects Ltd., from its assessment of
internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2008 because it was acquired by the Company in
a purchase business combination during 2008. We have also
excluded DeepOcean ASA and CTC Marine Projects Ltd. from our
assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2008. DeepOcean ASA and CTC Marine Projects
Ltd are
wholly-owned
subsidiaries of the Company whose total assets and total
revenues represent 72.1% and 55.5%, respectively, of the related
consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year
ended December 31, 2008.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
Houston, Texas
March 11, 2009, except with respect to our opinion on the
consolidated financial statements insofar as it relates to the
Companys ability to continue as a going concern as
discussed in Note 2, the retrospective effects of the
change in accounting for certain convertible debt discussed in
Note 3 and Note 5, the retrospective change in
accounting for the noncontrolling interest discussed in
Note 3 and the disclosure of condensed consolidating
financial information discussed in Note 20, as to which the
date is October 9, 2009.

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Trico Marine Services, Inc. (the Company) is an
integrated provider of subsea and marine support vessels and
services, including subsea trenching and protection services,
that was formed as a Delaware holding company in 1993. The
Company maintains a global presence with operations primarily in
international markets including the North Sea, West Africa,
Mexico, the Mediterranean, Brazil and Southeast Asia / China as
well as its domestic presence in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico
(Gulf of Mexico).
In May 2008, the Company expanded its presence in the subsea
services market by acquiring DeepOcean ASA
(DeepOcean). DeepOcean provides subsea services,
including inspection, maintenance and repair (IMR),
survey and light construction support, subsea intervention and
decommissioning. CTC Marine Projects LTD (CTC
Marine), a wholly-owned subsidiary of DeepOcean, provides
marine trenching, sea floor cable laying and subsea installation
services. DeepOcean and CTC Marine operate a well equipped
combined fleet of 15 vessels utilizing modern remotely
operated vehicles (ROVs) and subsea trenching and
protection, survey and cable laying equipment.
The Company operates internationally through a number of foreign
subsidiaries, including DeepOcean AS, through which it manages
the Subsea Services segment, CTC Marine Projects LTD, through
which it manages the Subsea Trenching and Protection segment,
and Trico Shipping AS, which owns vessels based primarily in the
North Sea. In addition to international operations, domestic
subsidiaries include Trico Marine Assets, Inc., which owns the
majority of our towing and supply vessels operating in the Gulf
of Mexico and other international regions excluding the North
Sea, and Trico Marine Operators, Inc., which operates all
vessels in the Gulf of Mexico. The Companys principal
customers are major oil and natural gas exploration, development
and production companies and foreign government-owned or
controlled organizations and telecommunications companies. Due
to the acquisition, the Company now operates utilizing three
operating segments: (1) Subsea Services; (2) Subsea
Trenching and Protection; and (3) Towing and Supply. Prior
year amounts have been restated to reflect this change in the
Companys operating segments.
In November 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding
equity interests of Active Subsea ASA, a Norwegian public
limited liability company (Active Subsea). Active
Subsea has eight multi-purpose service vessels
(MPSVs) currently under construction and scheduled
for delivery in 2009, 2010 and 2011. These vessels are designed
to support subsea services, including performing inspection,
maintenance and repair work using ROVs, dive and seismic support
and light construction activities.
As of December 31, 2008, the Companys fleet, together
with vessels held in joint ventures, consisted of
77 vessels, including seven subsea platform supply vessels
(SPSVs), 10 multi-purpose service vessels
(MSVs), seven large-capacity platform supply vessels
(PSVs), six large anchor handling towing and supply
vessels (AHTSs), 38 offshore supply vessels
(OSVs), three crew boats
(Crew / Line Handlers), five trenching
vessels and one line handling (utility) vessel. Additionally,
the Company has nine vessels on order for delivery in 2009, 2010
and 2011, including the eight MPSVs from the Active Subsea
acquisition.

|
Risks and
Uncertainties
|
Seasonality early in 2009, lower utilization due to planned
vessel mobilizations for longer term projects commencing
mid-year in the Companys subsea services segments,
deteriorating rates and utilization in the Companys towing
and supply segment and the further weakening of the U.S. dollar
relative to the Norwegian kroner during the second quarter of
2009, which resulted in additional cash payments required to
bring our $200 million revolving credit facility within its
contractual credit limit resulted in lower than expected
operating results. As a result, the Companys liquidity
outlook changed during 2009. The Company expects
F-8
increased activity in its subsea services segments and operating
results in such segment to remain constant for the third
quarter; however, it has revised its future operating results
forecast for the remainder of 2009 to reflect the lower outlook
for the Companys towing and supply business.
As a result of these events, the Company believes that its
forecasted cash and available credit capacity are not sufficient
to meet its commitments as they come due over the next twelve
months and that it will not be able to remain in compliance with
its debt covenants unless it is able to successfully refinance
certain debt. If the Company is unable to successfully refinance
certain debt, it would not be able to remain in compliance with
its debt covenants unless it could extend existing amortization
requirements, sell assets, access cash in certain of its
subsidiaries, obtain waivers or amendments from its lenders, and
effectively manage our working capital. If the Company is unable
to complete these actions, it will be in default under its
credit agreements, which in turn, would constitute an event of
default under all of its outstanding debt agreements. If this
were to occur, all of the Companys outstanding debt would
become callable by its creditors and would be reclassified as a
current liability on its balance sheet. The Companys
inability to repay the outstanding debt, if it were to become
current or if it were called by its creditors would have a
material adverse effect on the Company and raises substantial
doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going
concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include
any adjustment related to the recoverability and classification
of recorded assets or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
Trico Shipping AS is pursing an offering of high-yield notes for
purposes of refinancing all of the outstanding indebtedness of
the Trico Supply Group (Trico Supply AS, and its subsidiaries,
including Trico Shipping AS, DeepOcean AS and CTC Marine
Projects, Ltd.), a substantial portion of which matures during
the first half of 2010. In addition, the Company is continuing
to pursue refinancing of DeepOceans NOK 350 million
revolving credit facility, NOK 230 million revolving credit
facility, NOK 150 million additional term loan and NOK
200 million overdraft facility. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to consummate the offering of
high-yield notes or otherwise refinance the debt of the Trico
Supply Group, that lenders will be willing to waive or amend
covenants, or that its other plans can be affected on a timely
basis, on satisfactory terms or maintained once initiated. Even
if the Company is able to refinance the debt of the Trico Supply
Group and obtain waivers for any future covenant violations, its
obligations and the obligations of the Trico Supply Group will
still pose significant restrictions on the Company and The Trico
Supply Group which may include a higher cost of debt,
significant amortization payments, or liens on a substantial
portion of assets, all of which could severely limit its ability
to implement plans which would negatively impact future
operations.
As an international integrated provider of subsea and marine
support vessels and services to the energy and
telecommunications industries, the Companys revenue,
profitability, cash flows and future rate of growth are
substantially dependent on its ability to (1) secure
profitable contracts through a balance of spot exposure and term
contracts, (2) increase its vessel utilization and maximize
its service spreads, (3) deploy its vessels to the most
profitable markets, and (4) invest in a technologically
advanced subsea fleet. Consistent with the Companys
strategy, it is in the process of constructing or converting
several purpose-specific vessels for customers under long-term
contracts. The Companys inability to execute its plan or
the failure to successfully complete construction or conversion
of new vessels on schedule could adversely affect its financial
position, results of operations and cash flows.
The Companys revenues are primarily generated from
entities operating in the oil and gas industry in the North Sea,
the Gulf of Mexico, West Africa, Brazil, and Southeast Asia /
China. The Companys international operations are subject
to a number of risks inherent to international operations
including exchange rate fluctuations, unanticipated assessments
from tax or regulatory authorities, and changes in laws or
regulations. In addition, because of the Companys
structure, it may not be able to repatriate funds from its
Norwegian subsidiaries without adverse tax or debt compliance
F-9
consequences. These factors could have a material adverse affect
on the Companys financial position, results of operations
and cash flows.
Because the Companys revenues are generated primarily from
customers who have similar economic interests, its operations
are also susceptible to market volatility resulting from
economic, cyclical, weather related or other factors related to
the energy industry. Changes in the level of operating and
capital spending in the industry, decreases in oil and gas
prices, or industry perceptions about future oil and gas prices
could materially decrease the demand for the Companys
services, adversely affecting its financial position, results of
operations and cash flows.
The Companys operations, particularly in the North Sea,
West Africa, Mexico, and Brazil, depend on the continuing
business of a limited number of key customers and some of its
long-term contracts contain early termination options in favor
of its customers. If any of these customers terminate their
contracts with the Company, fail to renew an existing contract,
refuse to award new contracts to it or choose to exercise their
termination rights, the Companys financial position,
results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.
The Companys certificate of incorporation effectively
requires that it remain Jones Act eligible, and it must comply
with the Jones Act to engage in coastwise trade in the Gulf of
Mexico. The Jones Act provides, among other things, that
non-U.S. citizens
may neither exercise control over more than 25% of the voting
power in the corporation nor occupy seats that constitute more
than a minority of a Board quorum. The Company expects
decommissioning and deep water projects in the Gulf of Mexico to
comprise an important part of its subsea strategy, which will
require continued compliance with the Jones Act. Any action that
risks its status under the Jones Act could have a material
adverse effect on its business, financial position, results of
operations and cash flows.
The Company is highly leveraged and its debt imposes significant
restrictions on it and increases its vulnerability to adverse
economic and industry conditions, and could limit its ability to
obtain the additional financing required to successfully operate
its business. The Companys inability to satisfy any of the
obligations under its debt agreements would constitute an event
of default. Under certain of the Companys debt agreements,
an event of default will be deemed to have occurred if there is
a change of control of the Company or certain of its
subsidiaries or if a material adverse change or a fundamental
change occurs in regards to the financial position of the
applicable borrowing entity within the Company. Also, certain of
the Companys debt agreements contain a material adverse
change/effect provision that is determined in the reasonable
opinion of the respective lender, which is outside of the
control of the Company. Under cross-default provisions in
several agreements governing its indebtedness, a default or
acceleration of one debt agreement will result in the default
and acceleration of its other debt agreements and under its
Master Charter lease agreement (See Operating Leases in
Note 17 Commitments and Contingencies). A default, whether
by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, could result in all
or a portion of its outstanding debt becoming immediately due
and payable and would provide certain other remedies to the
counterparty to the Master Charter. If this were to occur, the
Company might not be able to obtain waivers or secure
alternative financing to satisfy all of its obligations
simultaneously. Given current market conditions, the
Companys ability to access the capital markets or to
consummate planned asset sales may be restricted at a time when
it would like or need to raise additional capital. In addition,
the current economic conditions could also impact its lenders,
customers and vendors and may cause them to fail to meet their
obligations to it with little or no warning. These events could
have a material adverse effect on the Companys business,
financial position, results of operations, cash flows and
ability to satisfy the obligations under its debt agreements.
(Also see Note 5 Long Term Debt.)
Although it is not currently economical to do so, the holders of
the Companys 6.5% Convertible Debentures have the
right to convert their debentures into its common stock and
receive a make whole interest payment from it. In addition,
these Debentures also provide the holders with the right to
require
F-10
it to repurchase the Debentures on specified dates or upon the
occurrence of a fundamental change in the Companys
business, which is defined as the occurrence of any of the
following:
(a) the consummation of any transaction that is disclosed
in a Schedule 13D (or successor form) by any
person and the result of which is that such
person has become the beneficial owner
(as these terms are defined in
Rule 13d-3
and
Rule 13d-5
under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than
50% of the Companys Capital Stock that is at the time
entitled to vote by the holder thereof in the election of the
Board of Directors (or comparable body); or
(b) the first day on which a majority of the members of the
Board of Directors are not Continuing Directors; or
(c) the adoption of a plan relating to the liquidation or
dissolution of the Company; or
(d) the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into
any other Person, or the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or
other disposition, in one or a series of related transactions,
of all or substantially all of the Companys assets and
those of its subsidiaries taken as a whole to any
person (as this term is used in
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than:
(i) any transaction pursuant to which the holders of 50% or
more of the total voting power of all shares of the
Companys Capital Stock entitled to vote generally in
elections of directors of the Company immediately prior to such
transaction have the right to exercise, directly or indirectly,
50% or more of the total voting power of all shares of the
Companys Capital Stock entitled to vote generally in
elections of directors of the continuing or surviving Person (or
any parent thereof) immediately after giving effect to such
transaction; or
(ii) any merger primarily for the purpose of changing the
Companys jurisdiction of incorporation and resulting in a
reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares
of Common Stock solely into shares of common stock of the
surviving entity.
(e) the termination of trading of the Common Stock, which
will be deemed to have occurred if the Common Stock or other
common equity interests into which the Debentures are
convertible is neither listed for trading on a United States
national securities exchange nor approved for listing on any
United States system of automated dissemination of quotations of
securities prices, and no American Depositary Shares or similar
instruments for such common equity interests are so listed or
approved for listing in the United States.
However, a Fundamental Change will be deemed not to have
occurred if more than 90% of the consideration in the
transaction or transactions (other than cash payments for
fractional shares and cash payments made in respect of
dissenters appraisal rights) which otherwise would
constitute a Fundamental Change under clauses (a) or
(d) above consists of shares of common stock, depositary
receipts or other certificates representing common equity
interests traded or to be traded immediately following such
transaction on a U.S. national securities exchange or
approved for listing on any United States system on automated
dissemination of quotations of securities prices, and, as a
result of the transaction or transactions, the Debentures become
convertible into such common stock, depositary receipts or other
certificates representing common equity interests. Such
conversions could significantly impact liquidity, and it may not
have sufficient funds to make the required cash payments should
a majority of the holders convert. The Companys failure to
convert or pay the make whole interest payment under the terms
of the Debentures would constitute an event of default, which in
turn, could constitute an event of default under all of its
outstanding debt agreements.

Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies
|
Consolidation Policy. The consolidated
financial statements of the Company include the accounts of
those subsidiaries where the Company directly or indirectly has
more than 50% of the ownership rights
and/or for
which the right to participate in significant management
decisions is not shared with the other shareholders. At
December 31, 2008, the Company held a 49% equity interest
in Eastern Marine Services Limited (EMSL), a Hong
Kong limited liability company that develops and provides
international marine support services for the oil and gas
industry in China, other countries within Southeast Asia and
Australia. Prior to 2008, the Company consolidated a 49%
variable interest in a Mexican subsidiary, Naviera Mexicana de
Servicios, S. de R.L de CV (NAMESE) and effective
January 1, 2008 the Company owned 100%. See Note 16
for further discussion. The noncontrolling interests of the
above mentioned subsidiaries are included in the Consolidated
Balance Sheets and Statements of Income as Noncontrolling
interest.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. For comparative purposes, certain
prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current years presentation. These reclassifications had no
effect on net income, stockholders equity or operating
cash flows.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and
those differences could be material.
Revenue Recognition. The Company earns and
recognizes revenues primarily from the time and bareboat
chartering of vessels to customers based upon daily rates of
hire and by providing other subsea services. A time charter is a
lease arrangement under which the Company provides a vessel to a
customer and the Company is responsible for all crewing,
insurance and other operating expenses. In a bareboat charter,
the Company provides only the vessel to the customer, and the
customer assumes responsibility to provide for all of the
vessels operating expenses and generally assumes all risk
of operation. Vessel charters may range from several days to
several years. Other vessel income is generally related to
billings for fuel, bunks, meals and other services provided to
customers.
Other subsea service revenue, primarily derived from the hiring
of equipment and operators to provide subsea services to its
customers, consists primarily of revenue from billings that
provide for a specific time for operators, material and
equipment charges, which accrue daily and are billed
periodically for the delivery of Subsea Services over a
contractual term. Service revenue is generally recognized when a
signed contract or other persuasive evidence of an arrangement
exists, the service has been provided, the fee is fixed or
determinable and collection of resulting receivables is
reasonably assured.
In addition, revenue for certain subsea contracts related to
trenching of subsea pipelines, flowlines and cables and
installation of subsea cables (umbilicals, ISUs, power and
telecommunications) and flexible flowlines is recognized based
on the
percentage-of-completion
method in accordance with the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants Statement of Position
81-1,
Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and
Certain Production-Type Contracts, measured by the
percentage of costs incurred to date to estimated total costs
for each contract. Cost estimates are reviewed monthly as the
work progresses and adjustments proportionate to the
percentage-of-completion
are reflected in revenue for the period when such estimates are
revised. Claims for extra work or changes in scope of work are
included in revenue when the amount can be reliably estimated
and collection is probable. Losses expected to be incurred on
contracts in progress are charged to operations in the period
such losses are determined.
F-12
Cash and Cash Equivalents. All investments
with original maturity dates of three months or less are
considered to be cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash. The Company segregates
restricted cash due to legal or other restrictions regarding its
use. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the total restricted
cash balance of $3.6 million and $8.6 million,
respectively, is primarily related to the following:
|
|
|
|
|
Cash of $2.7 million and $1.2 million at
December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, under Norwegian
statutory rules which requires a subsidiary to segregate cash
that will be used to pay tax withholdings in future periods;
|
|
|
|
Cash of $0.9 million at December 31, 2008, held for
guaranteed deposits on certain vessels and as collateral for a
surety bond;
|
|
|
|
Cash of $3.8 million at December 31, 2007, held in
escrow for outstanding letters of credit following the
Companys retirement of a $50 million secured
revolving credit facility upon emergence from bankruptcy in
2004, released in 2008 as prescribed by the agreement; and
|
|
|
|
Cash of $3.6 million, at December 31, 2007, held in
escrow until the second closing of EMSL which occurred on
January 1, 2008, at which time the Company transferred the
remaining four vessels to EMSL (See Note 16 for further
discussion).
|
Accounts Receivable. In the normal course of
business, the Company extends credit to its customers on a
short-term basis, generally 60 days or less. The
Companys principal customers are major integrated oil
companies and large independent oil and gas companies as well as
foreign government-owned or controlled companies that provide
logistics, construction and other services to such oil companies
and foreign government organizations. Although credit risks
associated with the Companys customers are considered
minimal, the Company routinely reviews its accounts receivable
balances and makes provisions for doubtful accounts as
necessary. The Company estimates its allowance for doubtful
accounts based on historical collection trends, type of
customer, the age of outstanding receivables and any specific
customer collection issues that it has identified. At
December 31, 2008 and 2007, allowance for doubtful accounts
totaled $2.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively.
The Company is exposed to risks related to the Companys
insurance and reinsurance contracts with various insurance
entities. The reinsurance recoverable amount can vary depending
on the size of a loss. The exact amount of the reinsurance
recoverable is not known until all losses are settled. The
Company records the reinsurance recoverable amount when the
claim has been communicated to the insurance provider, accepted
in writing by the insurance provider as a valid claim and the
Company believes it is probable amounts will be received. The
Company monitors its reinsurance recoverable balances regularly
for possible reinsurance exposure and makes adequate provisions
as necessary for doubtful reinsurance receivables.
Goodwill and
Intangible Assets.
Goodwill
The Companys goodwill represents the purchase price in
excess of the net amounts assigned to assets acquired and
liabilities assumed by the Company in connection with the
May 16, 2008 acquisition of DeepOcean (see Note 4 for
further discussion). The Companys reporting units follow
its operating segments under SFAS 131 and goodwill has been
recorded related to the acquisition in two reporting
units (1) Subsea Services and (2) Subsea
Trenching and Protection.
SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets, requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at
the reporting unit level on an annual basis and between annual
tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more
likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit
below its carrying value. The goodwill impairment test is a
two-step test. Under the first step, the fair
F-13
value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value
(including goodwill). If the fair value of the reporting unit is
less than its carrying value, an indication of goodwill
impairment exists for the reporting unit and the enterprise must
perform step two of the impairment test (measurement). Under
step two, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the
carrying amount of the reporting units goodwill over the
implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of
goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the
reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price
allocation, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) Statement No. 141, Business
Combinations. The residual fair value after this
allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit
goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its
carrying value, step two does not need to be performed.
At December 31, 2008, the measurement date, the Company
performed the first step of the two-step impairment test
proscribed by SFAS No. 142, and compared the fair
value of the reporting units to its carrying value. In assessing
the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company used a market
approach that incorporated the Company Specific Stock Price
method and the Guideline Public Company method, each receiving a
50% weighting. Due to current market conditions, the Company
concluded that the market approach would be most appropriate in
arriving at the fair value of the reporting units. Key
assumptions included the Companys publicly traded stock
price, using a
30-day
average price of $3.98 per share, an implied control premium of
9%, and a fair value of debt based primarily on the price for
the Companys publicly traded debentures. In step one of
the impairment test, the fair value of both the Subsea Services
and Subsea Trenching and Protection reporting units were less
than the carrying value of the net assets of the respective
reporting units, and thus the Company performed step two of the
impairment test.
In step two of the impairment test, the Company determined the
implied fair value of goodwill and compared it to the carrying
value of the goodwill for each reporting unit. The Company
allocated the fair value of the reporting units to all of the
assets and liabilities of the respective units as if the
reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. The
Companys step two analysis resulted in no implied fair
value of goodwill for either reporting unit, and therefore, the
Company recognized an impairment charge of $169.7 million
in the fourth quarter of 2008, representing a write-off of the
entire amount of the Companys previously recorded
goodwill. This impairment is based on a combination of factors
including the current global economic environment, higher costs
of equity and debt capital and the decline in market
capitalization of the Company and comparable subsea services
companies.

Intangible
Assets
Intangible assets consist primarily of trade names and customer
relationships, all of which was acquired in connection with the
DeepOcean acquisition.
The Company classified trade names as indefinite lived assets.
Under SFAS No. 142, indefinite lived assets are not
amortized but instead are reviewed for impairment annually and
more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the
asset may be impaired. At December 31, 2008, the Company
performed an impairment analysis of its trade name assets
utilizing a form of the income approach known as the
relief-from-royalty method. As a result of this assessment, the
Company recognized an impairment during 2008 of
$3.1 million on trade name assets. As of December 31,
2008, the Company
F-14
had $26.4 million of trade names on its Consolidated
Balance Sheet, which is included in Intangible
assets.
SFAS No. 142 requires that intangible assets with
estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective
estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairments in
accordance with SFAS No. 144. The following table
provides information relating to the Companys intangible
assets subject to amortization as of December 31, 2008 (in

The intangible assets subject to amortization are amortized
using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 11
to 13 years for the customer relationships. Amortization
expense was $7.6 million for the year ended
December 31, 2008 and the estimated amortization expense
for each of the next five years beginning 2009 is
$6.8 million per year.
In connection with completing step two of the Companys
goodwill impairment analysis in the fourth quarter of 2008, the
Company assessed the fair values of its customer relationships
in accordance with SFAS No. 144 and concluded there
was no impairment.
Accounting for Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived
assets are recorded at the original cost and reduced by the
amount of depreciation and impairments, if any. In addition to
the original cost of the asset, the recorded value is impacted
by a number of policy elections, including the estimation of
useful lives and residual values.
Depreciation for equipment commences once the asset is placed in
service and depreciation for buildings and leasehold
improvements commences once they are ready for their intended
use. Depreciable lives and salvage values are determined through
economic analysis, reviewing existing fleet plans and comparison
to similar vessels. Depreciation for financial statement
purposes is provided on the straight-line method depending on
the type of vessel. Residual values are estimated based on our
historical experience with regards to the sale of both vessels
and spare parts and are established in conjunction with the
estimated useful lives of the vessel. Marine vessels are
depreciated over useful lives ranging from 15 to 35 years
from the date of original acquisition, based on historical
experience for the particular vessel type. Major modifications,
which extend the useful life of marine vessels, are capitalized
and amortized over the adjusted remaining useful life of the
vessel. Transportation and other equipment are depreciated over
a useful life of five to 15 years. Depreciation expense was
$53.9 million, $24.4 million and $25.0 million
for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006.
When assets are retired or disposed, the cost and accumulated
depreciation thereon are removed, and any resultant gains or
losses are recognized in current operations. The Company
utilizes judgment in (i) determining whether an expenditure
is a maintenance expense or a capital asset;
(ii) determining the estimated useful lives of assets;
(iii) determining the residual values to be assigned to
assets; and (iv) determining if or when an asset has been
impaired.
Interest is capitalized in connection with the construction or
major modification of vessels. The capitalized interest is
recorded as part of the asset to which it relates and is
amortized over the assets estimated useful life, once it
is placed into operation. The Company capitalized interest of
$18.8 million and $1.4 million at December 31,
2008 and 2007, respectively.
F-15
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The Company
records impairment losses on long-lived assets used in
operations when events and circumstances indicate that the
assets might be impaired as defined by SFAS No. 144,
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is
measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to
undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by
the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the
impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which
the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the
assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of
the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
In connection with completing step two of the Companys
goodwill impairment analysis in the fourth quarter of 2008, as
further discussed in Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
above, the Company also assessed the current fair values of
its other significant assets including marine vessels and other
marine equipment, concluding that no impairment existed at
December 31, 2008. If market conditions were to decline in
market areas in which the Company operates, it could require the
Company to evaluate the recoverability of its long-lived assets
in future periods, which may result in write-offs or write-downs
on its vessels that may be material individually or in the
aggregate. The Company recognized a $0.1 million and
$2.6 million impairment for the year ended
December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, related to
vessels.
Marine Vessel Spare Parts. Marine vessel spare
parts are stated at the lower of average cost or market and are
included in Other assets in the Consolidated Balance
Sheet.
Marine Inspection Costs. Marine inspection
costs are expensed in the period incurred. Non-regulatory
drydocking expenditures are either capitalized as major
modifications or expensed, depending on the work being
performed. Total marine inspection and drydocking cost totaled
$17.6 million, $16.9 million and $20.4 million
for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.
Deferred Financing Costs. Deferred financing
costs include costs associated with the issuance of debt and are
amortized using the effective-interest rate method of
amortization over the expected life of the related debt
agreement or on a straight-line basis over the expected life of
the related debt agreement if the straight-line method
approximates the effective-interest rate method of amortization.
Income Taxes. Deferred income taxes are
provided at the currently enacted income tax rates for the
difference between the financial statement and income tax bases
of assets and liabilities and carryforward items. The Company
provides valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets
for amounts which are not considered more likely than
not to be realized.
On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of
FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48),
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an
interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48
clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes
recognized in an enterprises financial statements in
accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting
for Income Taxes. The interpretation prescribes a
recognition threshold and measurement attribute for a tax
position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and also
provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and
penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and
transition. The Company recognizes interest and penalties
accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax
expense.
Direct Operating Expenses. Direct operating
expenses (or direct operating costs) principally include crew
costs, marine inspection costs, insurance, repairs and
maintenance, supplies and casualty losses. Direct operating
costs are charged to expense as incurred. Direct operating costs
are reduced by the amount of partial reimbursements of labor
costs received from the Norwegian government. The labor
reimbursements totaled $7.8 million, $7.7 million and
$6.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2008,
2007 and 2006, respectively.
Losses on Insured Claims. The Company limits
its exposure to casualty losses by maintaining stop-loss and
aggregate liability deductibles. Self-insurance losses for
claims filed and claims incurred but not reported are accrued
based upon the Companys historical loss experience. To the
extent that
F-16
estimated self-insurance losses differ from actual losses
realized, the Companys insurance reserves could differ
significantly and may result in either higher or lower insurance
expense in future periods.
Foreign Currency Translation. The functional
currency for the majority of the Companys international
operations is the local currency. Adjustments resulting from the
translation of the local functional currency financial
statements into the U.S. Dollar, which is primarily based
on current exchange rates, are included in the Consolidated
Statements of Stockholders Equity as a separate component
of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in
the current period. The functional currency of certain foreign
locations is the U.S. Dollar, which includes Mexico and
certain Norwegian subsidiaries. Adjustments resulting from the
remeasurement of the local currency financial statements into
the U.S. Dollar functional currency, which uses a combination of
current and historical exchange rates, are included in the
Consolidated Statements of Income in Other expense,
net in the current period. Gains and losses from foreign
currency transactions, such as those resulting from the
settlement of foreign currency receivables or payables, are also
included in Other expense, net.
Stock-based Compensation. The Company accounts
for stock-based employee compensation plans using the fair-value
based method of accounting in accordance with Statement of
Accounting Standards No. 123R, Share-Based Payment
(Revised 2004) (SFAS 123R). The
Companys results of operations reflect compensation
expense for all employee stock-based compensation, which is
included in General and Administrative.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
(Loss). Accumulated other comprehensive income
(loss), which is included as a component of stockholders
equity, is comprised of currency translation adjustments in
foreign subsidiaries and unrecognized pension gain (loss). The
balance at December 31, 2008 primarily reflects currency
translation related to translating Norwegian Kroner books into
U.S. Dollar, the Companys reporting currency.
Recent Accounting Standards. On May 9,
2008, the FASB issued Staff Position APB
14-1,
Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be
Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash
Settlement) (the FSP or ABP
14-1).
The FASB also decided to add further disclosures for instruments
subject to this guidance. The new rules changed the accounting
for convertible debt instruments that permitted cash settlement
upon conversion and were applied to the Companys
3% senior convertible debentures. Effective January 1,
2009, the Company adopted the provisions of this FSP and applied
them, on a retrospective basis, to the Companys
consolidated financial statements, including those presented
herein for the periods in which the debt was outstanding. The
impact of the FSP is reflected in Notes 3, 5, 8, 10, 11,
13, 18, and 19. The FSP required the Company to separately
account for the liability and equity components of its senior
convertible notes in a manner intended to reflect its
nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. The Company determined the
carrying amount of the senior convertible note liability by
measuring the fair value as of the issuance date of a similar
note without a conversion feature. The difference between the
proceeds from the sale of the senior convertible notes and the
amount reflected as the senior convertible note liability was
recorded as additional paid-in capital. Effectively, the
convertible debt was recorded at a discount to reflect its below
market coupon interest rate. The excess of the principal amount
of the senior convertible notes over their initial fair value
(the discount) is accreted to interest expense over
the expected life of the senior convertible notes. Interest
expense is recorded for the coupon interest payments on the
senior convertible notes as well as the accretion of the
discount. The adoption did not have an impact on the
Companys cash flows.
On February 12, 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position
No. 157-2,
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, deferring
the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for one year for
nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except those that are
recognized or disclosed in the financial statements at least
annually. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, the
adoption would have on the Companys consolidated financial
position or its results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141
(revised 2007), Business Combinations
(SFAS No. 141(R)), which replaces
SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations.
SFAS No. 141(R) retains the
F-17
underlying concepts of SFAS No. 141 in that all
business combinations are still required to be accounted for at
fair value under the acquisition method of accounting, but
SFAS No. 141(R) changes the method of applying the
acquisition method in a number of significant aspects. In
addition to expanding the types of transactions that will now
qualify as business combinations, SFAS No. 141(R) also
provides that acquisition costs will generally be expensed as
incurred; noncontrolling interests will be valued at fair value
at the acquisition date; restructuring costs associated with a
business combination will generally be expensed subsequent to
the acquisition date; and changes in deferred tax asset
valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the
acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense.
SFAS No. 141(R) is effective on a prospective basis
for all business combinations for which the acquisition date is
on or after the beginning of the first annual period subsequent
to December 15, 2008, with an exception related to the
accounting for valuation allowances on deferred taxes and
acquired contingencies related to acquisitions completed before
the effective date. SFAS No. 141(R) amends
SFAS No. 109 to require adjustments, made after the
effective date of this statement, to valuation allowances for
acquired deferred tax assets and income tax positions to be
recognized as income tax expense. SFAS No. 141(R) is
required to be adopted concurrently with SFAS No. 160,
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements an amendment of ARB No. 51, and is
effective for business combination transactions for which the
acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first
annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15,
2008. Early adoption is prohibited.
Issued in December 2007, SFAS No. 160,
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements an amendment of ARB No. 51
(FAS 160) states that accounting and reporting
for noncontrolling interests (previously referred to as minority
interests) will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests
and classified as a component of equity. FAS 160 applies to
all entities that prepare consolidated financial statements,
except
not-for-profit
organizations, but will affect only those entities that have an
outstanding noncontrolling interest in one or more subsidiaries
or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. This statement is effective
as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year
beginning after December 15, 2008. The provisions of the
standard were applied to all noncontrolling interests
prospectively, except for the presentation and disclosure
requirements, which were applied retrospectively to all periods
presented and have been disclosed as such in the Companys
consolidated financial statements contained herein.
DeepOcean and CTC
Marine
On May 15, 2008, the Company initiated a series of
transactions that resulted in the acquisition of all the equity
ownership of DeepOcean ASA, a Norwegian public limited liability
company (DeepOcean). The Company began consolidating
DeepOceans results on May 16, 2008, the date it
obtained constructive control of DeepOcean. The Companys
ownership of DeepOcean ranged from 54% on May 16, 2008 to
in excess of 99% by June 30, 2008. At December 31,
2008, the Company has a 100% interest in DeepOcean.
The Company, through its subsidiary, Trico Shipping AS (Trico
Shipping), acquired all of the outstanding common stock of
DeepOcean for Norwegian Kroner (NOK) 32 per share. Trico
Shipping acquired the DeepOcean shares as follows:
On May 16, 2008, Trico Shipping acquired an aggregate
55,728,955 shares of DeepOceans common stock,
representing 51.5% of the fully diluted capital stock of
DeepOcean, pursuant to the following agreements and arrangements:
|
|
|
|
|
Subscription to purchase 20,000,000 newly issued DeepOcean
shares, representing approximately 18.5% of the fully diluted
capital stock of DeepOcean directly from DeepOcean for a price
of NOK 32 per share (approximately $127.6 million);
|
F-18
|
|
|
|
|
Acquisition of 17,495,055 DeepOcean shares, representing
approximately 16.2% of the fully diluted capital stock of
DeepOcean, in the open market at a price of NOK 32 per share
(approximately $111.6 million); and
|
|
|
|
Agreements between the Company, Trico Shipping and certain
members of DeepOceans management and another DeepOcean
shareholder, pursuant to which Trico Shipping purchased
18,233,900 DeepOcean shares, representing approximately 16.9% of
the fully diluted capital stock of DeepOcean. Trico Shipping
acquired these DeepOcean shares in exchange for a combination of
cash and phantom stock units issued by the Company with a
combined value of NOK 32 per share (approximately
$116.4 million).
|
Subsequent to May 16, 2008, Trico Shipping purchased an
additional 2,700,000 DeepOcean shares in the open market at a
price of NOK 32 per share (approximately $17.2 million),
representing approximately 2.5% of the fully diluted capital
stock of DeepOcean. As a result of the transactions described
above, and in accordance with the Norwegian Securities Trading
Act, on May 30, 2008 Trico Shipping initiated a mandatory
cash offer for all the remaining DeepOcean shares it did not
own. The aggregate value of the mandatory offer price was NOK 32
per share, including a previously announced NOK 0.50 per share
dividend amount. On June 13, 2008, Trico Shipping acquired
an aggregate of 39,270,000 DeepOcean shares, consisting of all
the shares owned by DOF ASA (DOF), a significant DeepOcean
shareholder, as well as an additional 4,050,000 shares
purchased in the open market for NOK 32 per share (approximately
$246.7 million). These acquisitions represent approximately
36.3% of DeepOceans fully diluted shares of capital stock,
with the DOF shares representing approximately 32.6% of the
fully diluted capital stock of DeepOcean. Following these
transactions the Company owned 90.4% of DeepOceans fully
diluted capital stock. The mandatory cash offer period ended on
June 30, 2008, at which time the Companys ownership
of DeepOceans fully diluted capital stock increased to
99.7%. On August 29, 2008, DeepOcean delisted from the Oslo
Bors exchange. The Company acquired the remaining
284,965 shares of DeepOcean outstanding at a purchase price
of 32 NOK per share.
The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method
as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 141, Business Combinations. To fund
the acquisition, the Company used a combination of its available
cash, borrowings under its existing, new
and/or
amended revolving credit facilities (Note 5), the proceeds
from the issuance of $300 million of 6.5% convertible
debentures (Note 5) and the issuance of the
Companys equity instruments in the form of phantom stock
units (Note 7).

U.S. Dollar investment reflects the conversion of NOK amounts
funded using the applicable foreign exchange rates in effect on
the dates of funding. The total investment in DeepOcean shares
was NOK 3,460,706,976 ($690.1 million) including net cash
acquired of NOK 695,000,000 ($137.3 million) on
May 16, 2008. |
In accordance with SFAS No. 141, the purchase price is
allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based
upon their estimated fair values on the acquisition dates. In
valuing acquired assets and assumed liabilities, fair values are
based on, but are not limited to: quoted market prices, where
available; expected cash flows; current replacement cost for
similar capacity for certain fixed assets; market rate
assumptions for contractual obligations; and appropriate
discount and growth rates. The excess of purchase price over the
estimated fair value of the net assets acquired at the date of
acquisition was recorded as goodwill.

The operations of DeepOcean will be reflected in the
Companys Subsea Services segment and the operations of CTC
Marine will be reflected in the Companys Subsea Trenching

Reflects the estimated fair value of the tangible assets of
DeepOcean and CTC Marine. The subsea equipment acquired from
DeepOcean and CTC Marine has estimated depreciable lives ranging
from two to 15 years. The marine vessels acquired have
estimated useful lives approximating 20 to 25 years. |
|
(b) |
|
The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill
recorded in the Subsea Services and Subsea Trenching and
Protection segments was $181.1 million and
$52.9 million, respectively. See Note 3 for discussion
of impairment. |
|
(c) |
|
Primarily reflects value associated with the customer
relationships of DeepOcean and CTC Marine. Accumulated
amortization related to the intangible assets for the period
from May 16, 2008 to December 31, 2008 totaled
$7.6 million. The estimated useful lives of the customer
relationships ranges from 11 to 13 years and is being
amortized using the straight-line method. See Note 3 for
discussion of impairment. |

Includes $59.5 million of short-term and current maturities

of DeepOcean are required to maintain occupational pension plans. |
Active
Subsea
On November 23, 2007, the Company acquired all of the
outstanding equity interests of Active Subsea ASA, a Norwegian
public limited liability company (Active Subsea),
for approximately $247.6 million, and changed its name to
Trico Subsea. The Company used available cash to fund this
acquisition. Active Subsea has eight MPSVs, currently under
construction and scheduled for delivery in 2009, 2010 and 2011
that are designed to support subsea services, including
performing inspection, maintenance and repair work using ROVs,
dive and seismic support and light construction activities. The
Company assumed Active Subseas construction commitments
for these vessels in the acquisition. The acquisition included
long-term contracts for three of these MPSVs with contract
periods ranging from two to four years. Two of these contracts
also provide for multi-year extensions. At the time, this
acquisition more than doubled the number of vessels in the
Companys fleet with subsea capabilities and allowed the
Company to further leverage its global footprint and broaden its
customer base to include subsea services and subsea construction
companies.

Interest on such credit facilities is at the London inter-bank
offered rate (LIBOR) or the Norwegian inter-bank offered rate
(NIBOR) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.55%.
The three month LIBOR rate was 1.8% and 5.0% and the three month
NIBOR rate was 3.97% and 5.88% for the periods ending
December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. |

The Company was not in compliance with its net worth ratio as of
December 31, 2008 and received an amendment retroactive to
December 31, 2008 . The amendment changed the calculation
of the net worth ratio both retroactively and prospectively to
permanently exclude impairment of goodwill and
non-amortizing
intangible assets from the net worth ratio. |

These debt agreements contain material adverse change
provisions. These provisions allow the lenders to declare an
event of default if in their reasonable opinion, a deterioration
in the financial condition of the borrower will have a negative
effect on its ability to meet its obligation or, a material
adverse change occurs with respect to the financial condition of
the borrower and/or its material subsidiaries. |

6.5% Convertible Debentures. On
May 14, 2008, the Company entered into a securities
purchase agreement under which the Company agreed to sell
$300 million aggregate principal amount of its
6.5% Senior Convertible Debentures (the
6.5% Debentures) due 2028 to certain institutional
investors. On May 16, 2008, the Company issued
$300 million of the 6.5% Debentures in a private
placement transaction. The 6.5% Debentures are governed by
an indenture, dated as of May 16, 2008, between the Company
and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee. The
Company received net proceeds of approximately
$287 million, after deducting offering costs of
approximately $13 million, which were capitalized as debt
issuance costs and are being amortized over the life of the
6.5% Debentures. Net proceeds of the offering were used to
partially fund the acquisition of DeepOcean (Note 4).
The 6.5% Debentures are senior unsecured obligations of the
Company and rank equally in right of payment to all of the
Companys other existing and future senior unsecured
indebtedness. The 6.5% Debentures are effectively
subordinated to all of the Companys existing and future
secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the
Companys assets collateralizing this indebtedness and any
liabilities of the Companys subsidiaries.
F-23
Interest on the 6.5% Debentures is payable semiannually in
arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year beginning
November 15, 2008. The debentures mature on May 15,
2028, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The
indenture governing the 6.5% Debentures contains negative
covenants with respect to, among other things, the Company
incurring any indebtedness that is senior to or equal to the
6.5% Debentures other than the permitted indebtedness, or
any liens or encumbrances other than the permitted liens.
The 6.5% Debentures are convertible, based on an initial
conversion rate of 24.74023 shares of common stock per
$1,000 principal amount of debentures, subject to adjustment.
The conversion rate will be adjusted upon certain events
including (i) stock dividends; (ii) certain
subdivisions, combinations or reclassifications of the
Companys common stock; (iii) certain issuances or
distributions to all or substantially all holders of the
Companys common stock; and (iv) certain other events.
In addition, in the event of certain types of fundamental
changes (as defined in Note 2), holders of the debentures
may elect either to receive an interest make-whole payment or to
cause the Company to increase the conversion rate by a number of
additional shares of the Companys common stock (which
reflect the approximate value of interest that would have
accrued under the 6.5% Debentures at the applicable
interest rate for the period from the applicable conversion date
through May 15, 2013). Any of these adjustments to the
conversion rate could mean that the number of shares of the
Companys common stock that are actually issuable upon
conversion of all debentures may increase above the
7,422,069 shares that would be issuable if holders elected
to convert their debentures and the Company decided to settle
the conversion in shares of its common stock (and no cash) at
the initial conversion rate. There is both a maximum and minimum
number of shares that may ultimately be issued under any
adjustment of the conversion rate pursuant to these specific
situations that allow for the modification of the initial
conversion rate. None of these conditions have occurred as of
December 31, 2008. The conversion feature associated with
the debentures is considered an embedded derivative as defined
is SFAS No. 133. See Note 6 for further
discussion.
Payment Options: For the 6.5%
Debentures (which were retired as of May 2009), upon any
conversion, the Company has the option to pay the holders of the
6.5% Debentures in cash, stock, or a combination thereof. If the
holders exercise their voluntary right to convert, the Company
can issue either $1,000 in cash per each $1,000 of principal
value of notes redeemed or the requisite number of shares
(24.74023) per each $1,000 of principal value of notes redeemed.
For other redemptions, the Company can either (i) pay cash
in the amount equal to the minimum of (a) $1,000 per each
$1,000 of principal value of notes redeemed or (b) the cash
equivalent value of 24.74023 shares based on recent trading
prices, (ii) 24.7023 shares per each $1,000 of
principal value of notes redeemed, or (iii) a combination
of (i) and (ii).
Investor Options to Convert, Redeem, or
Repurchase In the 6.5% Debentures, the
holders have the right to convert the notes at any time into the
requisite number of shares or the principal amount of the notes,
at the Companys election, and if redeemed prior to May
2013, the present value of the remaining interest payments.
Companys Ability to Repurchase or Redeem
Notes In the 6.5% Debentures, the Company has
the right to redeem the notes if they trade at 175% of the then
relevant conversion price for a minimum period of time within
the first five years. After five years, the Company can redeem
the notes regardless of the stock trading price. This redemption
price can be paid in cash and/or stock at the Companys
election.
In December 2008, two holders of the Companys
6.5% senior convertible debentures converted
$22 million principal amount of the debentures,
collectively, for a combination of $6.3 million in cash
related to the interest make-whole provision and
544,284 shares of the Companys common stock based on
an initial conversion rate of 24.74023 shares of common
stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures. The Company
recognized a gain on conversion of $9.0 million. Subsequent
to the end of 2008, seven holders of the Companys
6.5% senior convertible debentures converted
$13.1 million principal amount of the debentures,
collectively, for a combination of
F-24
$3.7 million in cash related to the interest make-whole
provision and 324,960 shares of our common stock based on
an initial conversion rate of 24.74023 shares of common
stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures. As of the date
hereof, there are approximately $264.9 million principal
amount of the 6.5% senior convertible debentures
outstanding.
3% Senior Convertible
Debentures. In February 2007, the Company
issued $150.0 million of 3% senior convertible
debentures due in 2027 (the 3% Debentures). The Company
received net proceeds of approximately $145.2 million after
deducting offering costs of approximately $4.8 million,
which were capitalized as debt issuance costs and are being
amortized over the life of the 3% Debentures. Net proceeds
of the offering were for the acquisition of Active Subsea ASA,
financing of the Companys fleet renewal program and for
general corporate purposes.
Interest on the 3% Debentures is payable semiannually in
arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The
3% Debentures will mature on January 15, 2027, unless
earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased.
The 3% Debentures are senior unsecured obligations of the
Company and rank equally in right of payment to all of the
Companys other existing and future senior indebtedness.
The 3% Debentures are effectively subordinated to all of
the Companys existing and future secured indebtedness to
the extent of the value of its assets collateralizing such
indebtedness and any liabilities of its subsidiaries. The
3% Debentures and shares of the common stock issuable upon
the conversion of the debentures have been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933.
The 3% Debentures are convertible into cash and, if
applicable, shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per
share, based on an initial conversion rate of
23.0216 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount
of the 3% Debentures (which is equal to an initial
conversion price of approximately $43.44 per share), subject to
adjustment and certain limitations. If converted, holders will
receive cash up to the principal amount, and, if applicable,
excess conversion value will be delivered in common shares.
Holders may convert their 3% Debentures at their option at
any time prior to the close of business on the business day
immediately preceding the maturity date only under the following
circumstances: (1) prior to January 15, 2025, on any
date during any fiscal quarter (and only during such fiscal
quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock is
greater than or equal to $54.30 (subject to adjustment) for at
least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading
days ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal
quarter; (2) during the five
business-day
period after any 10 consecutive
trading-day
period (the measurement period) in which the trading
price of $1,000 principal amount of 3% Debentures for each
trading day in the measurement period was less than 98% of the
product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and
the applicable conversion rate on such trading day; (3) if
the 3% Debentures have been called for redemption; or
(4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions
set forth in the indenture governing the 3% Debentures (the
Indenture). Holders may also convert their
3% Debentures at their option at any time beginning on
January 15, 2025, and ending at the close of business on
the business day immediately preceding the maturity date. The
conversion rate will be subject to adjustments in certain
circumstances. In addition, following certain corporate
transactions that also constitute a fundamental change (as
defined in the Indenture See Note 2), we will increase the
conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its
3% Debentures in connection with such corporate
transactions in certain circumstances. None of these conditions
have been met at December 31, 2008.
Payment
Options:
Upon voluntary conversion by the holders of the Companys
3.0% Senior Convertible Debentures, the Company will
satisfy its conversion obligation in cash up to the principal
amount of the 3% Debentures to be converted, with any
remaining amount to be satisfied in shares of its common stock.
If the holders put the 3% Debentures to the Company on the
requisite put dates or upon a fundamental change of
control, these amounts are paid in cash. The Company may
redeem
F-25
the 3% Debentures beginning January 15, 2012 for a
price equal to the redemption price. This amount is payable in
cash. In this circumstance, the holders have the ability to
convert prior to the redemption date and receive a combination
of cash and common stock if the common stock price is greater
than the conversion price.
Investor
Options to Convert, Redeem, or Repurchase
The provisions in the 3% Debentures include a put right of
the holder at January 15, 2014, January 15, 2017, and
January 15, 2022. This provision provides the holder the
opportunity at various points (approximately years 7, 10, and
15) to receive back the principal amount of the Debentures.
There is also a fundamental change of control put.
Companys
Ability to Repurchase or Redeem Notes
In the 3% Debentures, the Company has the right to redeem
the 3% Debentures for a slight premium to par beginning in
January of 2012 (approximately five years after issue). This
premium amount declines to zero in January of 2014.
Additionally, the Company has the right to redeem the
3% Debentures if they trade at 125% of the then relevant
conversion price for a minimum period of time.
The conversion feature associated with these debentures has not
been accounted for as a separate derivative instrument under
SFAS No. 133 as the conversion option can only be
settled in the Companys stock and therefore is not
required to be separately accounted for as a derivative.
Effective January 1, 2009, the 3% Debentures were
subject to FASB Staff Position APB
14-1,
Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be
Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash
Settlement). APB
14-1 changes
the accounting and requires further disclosures for convertible
debt instruments that permit cash settlement upon conversion.
APB 14-1
required the Company to separately account for the liability and
equity components of its senior convertible notes in a manner
intended to reflect its nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. The
discount on the liability component of the 3% Debentures is
amortized until the first quarter of 2014. APB
14-1
requires retrospective application to all periods as defined
within Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error
Corrections.
The tables below reflect the Companys retrospective
adoption of the effect of the accounting principle change
related to the Companys convertible notes. These selected
financial captions summarize the adjustments for the
consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2008 and
2007, respectively (in thousands):

The amount of interest cost recognized for the year ending
December 31, 2008 relating to both the contractual interest
coupon and amortization of the discount on the liability
component is $9.8 million. The amount of interest cost
recognized for the year ending December 31, 2007 is
$8.6 million. The coupon and the amortization of the
discount on the debt will yield an effective interest rate of
approximately 8.9% on these convertible notes.
$200 million Revolving Credit
Facility. In May 2008, in connection with
financing the acquisition of DeepOcean, Trico Shipping AS and
certain other subsidiaries of the Company entered into a credit
agreement (as amended the $200 Million Credit Agreement) with
various lenders. The $200 Million Credit Agreement provides the
Company with a $200 million, or equivalent in foreign
currency, revolving credit facility, which is guaranteed by
certain of the Companys subsidiaries, and is
collateralized by vessel mortgages and other security documents.
The final $10 million of availability was contingent on
delivery of the Sapphire, which was subsequently canceled, which
limited the maximum availability to $190 million. The
commitment under the facility reduces by $10 million each
quarter and continuing through the quarter ending June 30,
2010, at which time the facility will reduce by $6 million
per quarter until March 31, 2013. The commitment under the
facility is currently $170 million. Interest is payable on
the unpaid principal amount outstanding at a rate applicable to
the currency in which the funds are borrowed (the Eurodollar
rate designated by the British Bankers Association for
U.S. Dollar denominated loans, or Euro LIBOR, NOK LIBOR or
Sterling LIBOR for loans denominated in Euro, NOK or Sterling,
respectively) plus 2.25% (subject to adjustment based on
consolidated leverage ratio). The $200 million credit
facility matures May 14, 2013.
The $200 Million Credit Agreement subjects the Company
subsidiaries that are parties to the credit agreement to certain
financial and other covenants including, but not limited to,
affirmative and negative covenants with respect to indebtedness,
minimum liquidity, liens, declaration or payment of dividends,
sales of assets, investments, consolidated leverage ratio,
consolidated net worth and collateral coverage. Payment under
the $200 Million Credit Agreement may be accelerated following
certain events of default including, but not limited to, failure
to make payments when due, noncompliance with covenants,
breaches of representations and warranties, commencement of
insolvency proceedings, entry of judgment in excess of
$5 million, defaults by any of the credit parties under the
credit agreement or certain other indebtedness in excess of
$10 million and occurrence of certain changes of control.
$100 million Revolving Credit
Facility. In April 2008, Trico Subsea AS
entered into an eight-year multi-currency revolving credit
facility (as amended, the $100 Million Credit Agreement) in the
amount of $100 million or equivalent in foreign currency,
secured by first preferred mortgages on Trico Subsea AS vessels,
refund guarantees related thereto, certain additional
vessel-related collateral, and guarantees from Trico Supply AS,
Trico Subsea Holding AS and each subsidiary of Trico Subsea AS
that acquires a vessel. The commitment under this multi-currency
revolving facility matures on the earlier of the eighth
anniversary of the delivery of the final vessel or
December 31, 2017. The commitment under this facility
reduces in equal quarterly installments of $3.125 million
commencing on the earlier of the date three months after the
delivery of the eighth and final vessel or June 30, 2010.
Interest is payable on the unpaid principal amount outstanding
at a rate applicable to the currency in which the funds are
borrowed (the Eurodollar rate designated by the British Bankers
Association for U.S. Dollar denominated loans, or Euro
LIBOR, NOK LIBOR or Sterling LIBOR for loans denominated in
Euro, NOK or Sterling, respectively) plus 2.0% (subject to
adjustment based on consolidated leverage ratio).
The $100 Million Credit Agreement also subjects Trico Supply AS
and its subsidiaries to certain financial and other covenants
including, but not limited to, affirmative and negative
covenants with respect to indebtedness, minimum liquidity,
liens, declaration or payment of dividends, sales of collateral,
loans, consolidated leverage ratio, consolidated net worth and
collateral coverage. Payment under the $100 Million Credit
Agreement may be accelerated following certain events of
default, including, but not limited to, failure to make payments
when due, noncompliance with covenants, breaches of
representations and warranties, commencement of insolvency
proceedings, entry of
F-28
judgment in excess of $5 million, defaults by any of the
credit parties under the credit agreement or certain other
indebtedness in excess of $10 million and the occurrence of
certain changes in control.
$50 million U.S. Credit
Facility. In January 2008, the Company
entered into a $50 million three-year credit facility (as
amended and restated, the U.S. Credit Facility) secured by
an equity interest in direct material domestic subsidiaries, a
65% interest in Trico Marine Cayman, LP, first preferred
mortgage on vessels owned by Trico Marine Assets, Inc. and a
pledge on the intercompany note due from Trico Supply AS to
Trico Marine Operators, Inc. The commitment under the
U.S. Credit Facility reduces to $40 million after one
year and to $30 million after two years. A voluntary
prepayment of $15 million was made on January 14, 2009
which reduced the commitment under this Facility to
$35 million. Interest is payable on the unpaid principal
amount outstanding at the Eurodollar rate designated by the
British Bankers Association plus 2.25% (subject to adjustment
based on consolidated leverage ratio). The facility matures on
January 31, 2011.
The U.S. Credit Facility subjects the Companys
subsidiaries that are parties to the credit agreement to certain
financial and other covenants including, but not limited to,
affirmative and negative covenants with respect to indebtedness,
minimum liquidity, liens, declaration or payment of dividends,
sales of assets, investments, consolidated leverage ratio,
consolidated net worth and collateral coverage. Payment under
the U.S. Credit Facility may be accelerated following
certain events of default including, but not limited to, failure
to make payments when due, noncompliance with covenants,
breaches of representations and warranties, commencement of
insolvency proceedings, entry of judgment in excess of
$5 million, defaults by any of the credit parties under the
credit agreement or certain other indebtedness in excess of
$10 million and occurrence of certain changes of control.
6.11% Notes. In 1999, Trico Marine
International issued $18.9 million of notes due 2014 to
finance construction of two supply vessels, of which
$6.9 million is outstanding at December 31, 2008. The
notes are guaranteed by the Company and the U.S. Maritime
Administration and secured by first preferred mortgages on two
vessels. Failure to maintain the Companys status as a
Jones Act company would constitute an event of default under
such notes.
NOK 260 million Short Term Credit
Facility. In May 2008, Trico Shipping entered
into a credit facility agreement with Carnegie Investment Bank
AB Norway Branch, as lender (the Short Term Credit Facility).
The Short Term Credit Facility provides for a NOK
260 million short term credit facility (approximately
$37.3 million at December 31, 2008) that Trico
Shipping is using for general corporate purposes. The facility
was scheduled to mature on November 1, 2008, but the
facility agreement has been amended to extend the term of the
facility until February 1, 2009. Interest on the facility
accrued at an average 9.05% per annum rate until
November 1, 2008, at which time the interest rate increased
to 9.9%. This facility was repaid in full at maturity on
February 2, 2009.
EMSL Credit Facility Agreement. In June
2007, EMSL, a jointly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered
into a credit facility agreement (the EMSL Credit Facility).
During the first half of 2008, EMSL, using its operating cash
flow, repaid the EMSL Credit Facility in full and it was
subsequently terminated.
NOK 300 million Senior Notes. In
October 2006, DeepOcean issued NOK 300 million of Senior
Notes (Notes) due October 9, 2009. The Notes proceeds were
used in the acquisition of CTC Marine and for general corporate
purposes. The coupon rate on the Notes is the
3-month
NIBOR rate plus 1.65%, and is payable quarterly. The Notes were
scheduled to mature in October 2009. The Notes were subject to a
change in control provision that was triggered when the Company
acquired a majority interest in DeepOcean. This provision
allowed the holders of the Notes to exercise a put option if
exercised within two months following notice of the change of
control of DeepOcean. The last day for holders to exercise this
put option was July 28, 2008. Holders of the Notes
exercised their put option for cash of approximately NOK
236 million pursuant to these put options. The Company cash
settled the remaining approximate NOK 62 million
($10.5 million) of Notes in the third quarter of 2008 and
no amounts were outstanding at December 31, 2008.
F-29
NOK 350 million Revolving Credit
Facility. In December 2007, in connection
with the financing of the vessel Deep Endeavour, DeepOcean
entered into this NOK 350 million credit facility
(approximately $50.2 million at December 31, 2008).
This multi-currency facility allows for borrowings to be made in
either U.S. Dollars or NOK. The loan is guaranteed by
DeepOcean and is secured with a mortgage on the Deep Endeavor, a
portion of DeepOceans inventory and other security
documents. The commitment under the facility decreases
semi-annually by NOK 10 million (approximately
$1.4 million at December 31, 2008) with a balloon
payment at its December 1, 2014 maturity. Interest accrues
on the facility at the
3-month
NIBOR rate plus 2.75% for NOK borrowings and the LIBOR rate plus
2.75% for U.S. Dollar borrowings and is payable quarterly.
The facility is subject to customary financial covenants with
respect to leverage ratio, working capital ratio, and book
equity ratio.
NOK 230 million Revolving Credit
Facility. DeepOcean entered into this
agreement in July 2007. This facility is part of a larger
composite credit facility that has capacity of approximately NOK
1.0 billion ($143.4 million) but has subsequently been
reduced to NOK 585 million ($83.9 million). This NOK
230 million credit facility is secured with inventory up to
NOK 1.0 billion and other security documents including the
pledge of shares in certain DeepOcean subsidiaries. The
facilitys commitment is subject to semi-annual reductions
of NOK 8 million (approximately $1.1 million at
December 31, 2008) with a final NOK 150.7 million
($21.6 million) balloon payment due at the June 1,
2012 maturity date. Interest on this facility is at the
3-month
NIBOR rate plus 2.75% and is payable quarterly in arrears. The
facility is subject to customary financial covenants with
respect to leverage ratio, working capital ratio, and book
equity ratio.
NOK 150 million Additional Term
Loan. DeepOcean entered into this agreement
in December 2006. Like the NOK 230 million
($33.0 million) facility discussed above, this NOK
150 million ($21.5 million) term loan is part of a
larger NOK 585 million ($83.9 million) composite
facility. The borrowings under this facility partially funded
the acquisition of CTC Marine. This term loan is secured with
inventory up to NOK 1.75 billion ($250.9 million) and
other security documents, including the pledge of shares in
certain DeepOcean subsidiaries. This facility allows for
multi-currency borrowing including NOK, U.S. Dollar,
Sterling and Euro. The term loan is subject to mandatory NOK
15 million ($2.2 million) semi-annual payments due in
June and December every year until December 18, 2011 when
the debt matures. Interest on the debt accrues at LIBOR plus
2.75% and is payable quarterly. The facility is subject to
customary financial covenants with respect to leverage ratio,
working capital ratio, and book equity ratio.
NOK 200 million Overdraft
Facility. DeepOcean entered into a
multicurrency cash pool system agreement in July 2007. In
conjunction with the cash pool system, DeepOcean has a
multi-currency cash pool credit of up to NOK 200.0 million.
This facility is part of a larger composite credit facility that
once had capacity of approximately NOK 1.0 billion
($143.4 million) but has subsequently been reduced to NOK
585 million ($83.9 million). This NOK 200 million
cash pool credit is secured with inventory up to NOK
1.0 billion and other security documents including the
pledge of shares in certain DeepOcean subsidiaries. Interest on
this facility is at the
3-month
NIBOR rate plus 2.75% and is payable quarterly in arrears. The
facility is subject to customary financial covenants with
respect to leverage ratio, working capital ratio, and book
equity ratio. The facility matures on June 21, 2010.
Regarding the NOK 350 million Revolving Credit Facility,
NOK 230 million Revolving Credit Facility, NOK
150 million additional term loan and NOK 200 million
overdraft facility, the obligors thereunder and the principal
lender have entered into an amendment to these facilities to,
among other things, shorten the maturity dates for all
facilities to January 1, 2010, waive the requirement that
DeepOcean AS be listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange, consent to
the tonnage tax related corporate reorganization, and increase
certain fees and margins. In conjunction with this amendment,
the Company made a prepayment of NOK 50 million
($7.2 million) on November 1, 2008, an additional
prepayment of NOK 25 million ($3.9 million) on
June 30, 2009 and agreed to a retroactive increase in fees
and margins to November 1, 2008. The total amount
outstanding under these facilities as of December 31, 2008
was $96.4 million.
F-30
DeepOcean has $14.2 million of finance leases to finance
certain of its equipment including ROVs. These leases have terms
of seven years. These leases are cross defaulted to the NOK
350 million Revolving Credit Facility, NOK 230 Revolving
Credit Facility and NOK 150 million Additional Term Loan,
including the NOK 200 Overdraft Facility.
23.3 million Euro Revolving Credit
Facility. In October 2001, a subsidiary of
DeepOcean entered into this multi-currency facility, which
provides for Euro and U.S. Dollar borrowings. The purpose
of this facility was to fund the construction of the vessel
Arbol Grande. The facility is secured by a first priority lien
on the Arbol Grande. Interest on the loan is payable quarterly
at LIBOR plus 2.25%. The facility was scheduled to mature on
November 30, 2008 and has been amended and extended to
March 31, 2010. This facility is subject to financial
covenants with respect to leverage ratio, net worth and minimum
liquidity and affirmative and negative covenants.
$18 million Revolving Credit
Facility. In November 2007, DeepOcean entered
into this $18 million revolving credit facility to
refinance the original loan used to acquire and upgrade the
vessel Atlantic Challenger. This facility is secured with a
first priority lien on the Atlantic Challenger. This facility is
subject to a mandatory $0.5 million per quarter payment.
Interest under the facility accrues at LIBOR plus 2.25% and is
payable quarterly. The facility is subject to financial
covenants with respect to leverage ratio, net worth and minimum
liquidity and affirmative and negative covenants.
8 million Sterling Overdraft
Facility. CTC Marine uses this secured short
term overdraft facility in its normal business operations. The
facility actually has gross capacity of 12 million Sterling
($17.5 million) but it is offset by CTC Marines cash
accounts. Borrowings under this facility can be made in
Sterling, U.S. Dollars, NOK, Australian Dollars and Euros.
At December 31, 2008, CTC Marine had cash totaling
$6.1 million, which means the net borrowings on the
overdraft facility were $3.7 million. Interest on the
facility accrues at the lenders base rate for Sterling
borrowings plus 1% and is payable quarterly in arrears. The
facility is secured by the property and equipment of CTC Marine.
24.2 million Sterling Asset Financing
Facilities. CTC Marine has two asset
facilities totaling 24.2 million Sterling
($35.4 million) to finance new and existing assets. The
Asset Finance Loan Facility (Existing Assets Facility) has a
commitment of 8.3 million Sterling ($12.1 million),
matures on various dates through 2012 and accrues interest at
the 3-month
Sterling LIBOR rate plus a margin of between 1.65% and 2.55%. As
of December 31, 2008, CTC Marines outstanding balance
on the Existing Assets Facility totaled approximately
5.2 million Sterling ($7.6 million). The Asset Finance
Loan Facility (New Assets Facility) has a commitment of
15.9 million Sterling ($23.2 million), matures on
various dates that are six years from the delivery of the
financed assets and accrues interest at the
3-month
Sterling LIBOR rate plus 1.65%. The final asset to be financed
under the New Assets Facility was delivered in the fourth
quarter of 2008. As of December 31, 2008, CTC Marines
outstanding balance on the New Assets Facility totaled
approximately 6.6 million Sterling ($9.7 million).
These asset finance facilities are secured by mortgages on the
assets financed and the property and equipment of CTC Marine and
are partially guaranteed by DeepOcean. These asset finance loan
facilities are subject to certain customary covenants and their
outstanding balance cannot exceed 60% of the net book value of
the assets collateralizing the facility. These facilities are
subject to quarterly reductions of their borrowings.
Due to the goodwill and intangible impairment taken at
December 31, 2008, the Company received either a wairer or
a retroactive amendment changing the definition to exclude write
downs of goodwill
and/or
nonamortizing intangible assets subsequent to year end in its
$200 million Revolving Credit Facility, $100 million
Revolving Credit Facility, $50 million U.S. Revolving
Credit Facility Agreement, $18 million Revolving Credit
Facility and 23.3 million Euro Revolving Credit Facility
Such that the Company was in compliance with its minimum net
worth requirement. Waivers related to its minimum net worth
requirement as of December 31, 2008 and amended the credit
facilities on a go forward basis to exclude the effect of this
impairment.
Under certain of the Companys debt agreements, an event of
default will be deemed to have occurred if there is a change of
control of the Company or certain of its subsidiaries or if a
material
F-31
adverse change occurs to the financial position of the
applicable borrowing entity within the Company. Also, certain of
the Companys debt agreements contain a material adverse
change/effect provision that is determined in the reasonable
opinion of the respective lenders, which is outside the control
of the Company. Additionally, certain of the Companys debt
agreements contain cross-default and cross-acceleration
provisions that trigger defaults under other of the
Companys debt agreements.
The Companys capitalized interest totaled
$18.8 million, $1.4 million and $0.3 million for
the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.

Derivative
Instruments
|
As discussed in Note 5, the 6.5% Debentures and the 3.0%
Debentures provide the holder with a conversion option. The
conversion option in the Companys 3% Debentures may only
be settled in its stock and therefore is not required to be
separately accounted for as a derivative. However, the
Companys 6.5% Debentures include a conversion option that
may be settled in a combination of cash or stock, at the
Companys election, and entitles the holder to a make-whole
interest premium that is indexed to the U.S. Treasury Rate.
Because the terms of this embedded option are not clearly and
closely related to the debt instrument, it represents an
embedded derivative that must be accounted for separately. Under
SFAS No. 133 the Company is required to bifurcate the
embedded derivative from the host debt instrument and record it
at fair value on the date of issuance, with subsequent changes
in its fair value recorded in the consolidated statement of
operations. The estimated fair value of the derivative on
May 14, 2008 (the date of issuance) was $53.8 million,
which was included as a noncurrent derivative liability on the
balance sheet with a corresponding amount recorded as a discount
on the 6.5% Debentures. At December 31, 2008, the
estimated fair value of the derivative was $1.1 million,
resulting in a $52.7 million unrealized gain for the year
ended December 31, 2008. The estimate of fair value was
determined through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation lattice
option-pricing model that included various assumptions,
including the Companys December 31, 2008 stock
closing price of $4.47 per share, expected volatility of 50%, a
discount rate of 10.95% using United States Treasury Bond Rates
of 1.39% and risk adjusted rates of 7.97% for the time value of
options. The discount on the 6.5% Debentures is being
accreted through an additional non-cash charge to interest
expense over a five year period given that the debentures
include a number of put and call options held by the holders and
the Company that make it probable that the debt will be redeemed
or converted by the first put option date of May 15, 2013.
The coupon and the amortization of the discount on the debt will
yield an effective interest rate of approximately 11.8% on these
convertible notes. The reduction in our stock price is the
primary factor influencing the change in value of this
derivative and its impact on our net income attributable to
Trico Marine Services. Any increase in our stock price will
result in unrealized losses being recognized in future periods
and such amounts could be material.
Separately, in June 2008, the Company settled a foreign currency
hedge it assumed in its acquisition of DeepOcean. Upon
settlement, the Company received net proceeds of
$8.2 million, which was approximately $2.5 million
less than the swap instruments fair value recorded in purchase
accounting on May 16, 2008. This $2.5 million loss was
recorded in Other expense, net in the Consolidated
Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 2008.
In connection with the acquisition of DeepOcean, West
Supply IV AS (West Supply), a significant DeepOcean
shareholder, and certain members of DeepOcean management and
their controlled entities were paid cash and issued phantom
stock units (PSUs) by the Company as payment for their DeepOcean
shares at NOK 32 per share. Each phantom stock unit permits the
holder to acquire one share of the Companys common stock
for no additional consideration upon exercise, subject to
certain vesting restrictions described below, or, at the
Companys option, it may pay the holder the cash equivalent
of such shares of common stock, based on the weighted average
trading price of the Companys common stock during the last
three trading days prior to each respective
F-32
exercise date. West Supply received 50% of its sale
consideration in PSUs, while certain DeepOcean management
members received 40% of their sales proceeds in the form of PSUs.
In connection with the Companys acquisition of West
Supplys shares of DeepOcean, a PSU agreement between the
entities resulted in the Company issuing 1,352,558 PSUs to West
Supply. The PSUs are not exercisable until January 11,
2009, which is 181 days after the completion and settlement
of the mandatory tender offer (July 11, 2008) and
expires on July 11, 2013, which is the fifth anniversary of
the completion and settlement of the mandatory tender offer. The
PSUs issued to West Supply are subject to certain
U.S. legal restrictions on foreign ownership of
U.S. maritime companies, which are included in the phantom
stock unit agreements. The shares of common stock that would be
issued upon the exercise of the PSUs have been registered with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In May 2008, the Company also entered into PSU agreements with
certain members of DeepOcean management and their controlled
entities. Pursuant to these management PSU agreements, the
Company issued an aggregate of 229,344 PSUs.
The PSUs issued to DeepOcean management and their controlled
entities are subject to certain vesting and exercise periods.
Generally, half of the PSUs granted to the members of
DeepOceans management and their controlled entities vest
and may be exercised on July 11, 2009, and the other half
vest and may be exercised on July 11, 2010, the second
anniversary of the completion and settlement of the mandatory
tender offer. These vested PSUs are exercisable from such dates
until July 11, 2013. All such PSUs fully vest and become
exercisable upon certain change of control of the Company or if
DeepOceans earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization for its fiscal year ended December 31,
2008 is greater than NOK 489 million ($70.1 million),
which DeepOcean did not achieve at December 31, 2008. There
are certain other non-service related vesting provisions for
certain senior members of DeepOcean management upon their
retirement from the Company.
The value of the PSUs issued to West Supply and certain members
of DeepOceans management and their controlled entities was
$35.14 per share calculated based upon the average trading price
of the Companys stock around the acquisition date. The
total amount recorded as a component of equity for the issuance
of PSUs in connection with the acquisition was
$55.6 million.

Fair Value
Measurements
|
On September 16, 2006, the FASB issued
SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements.
SFAS No. 157 provides a single definition of fair
value, together with a framework for measuring it, and requires
additional disclosure about the use of fair value to measure
assets and liabilities. The Company adopted
SFAS No. 157 effective January 1, 2008, with no
material impact on the Companys consolidated financial
position or its results of operations.
To increase consistency and comparability in fair value
measurements, SFAS No. 157 establishes a fair value
hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques
used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
|
|
|
|
|
Level 1 Valuations utilizing quoted, unadjusted
prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets
that the Company has the ability to access. This is the most
reliable evidence of fair value and does not require a
significant degree of judgment.
|
|
|
|
Level 2 Valuations utilizing quoted prices in
markets that are not considered to be active or financial
instruments for which all significant inputs are observable,
either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term
of the asset or liability.
|
|
|
|
Level 3 Valuations utilizing significant,
unobservable inputs. This provides the least objective evidence
of fair value and requires a significant degree of judgment.
Inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies and
should reflect an entitys
|
F-33
|
|
|
|
|
assumptions using the best information available that market
participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
|
On October 10, 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position
No. 157-3,
Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the
Market for That Asset is Not Active
(FSP 157-3).
FSP 157-3
clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157 in a market
that is not active and illustrates key considerations in
determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market
for the financial asset is not active.
FSP 157-3
had no impact on the Companys consolidated financial
position or its results of operations.
The estimated fair values of financial instruments have been
determined by the Company using available market information and
valuation methodologies described below. However, considerable
judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the
estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented
herein may not be indicative of the amounts that the Company
could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different
market assumptions or valuation methodologies may have a
material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
Cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts
payable: The carrying amounts approximate fair
value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Debt: The fair value of the Companys
fixed rate debt is based on quoted market prices and falls under
the SFAS No. 157 hierarchy at a Level 2.
The carrying amounts and fair values of debt, including accrued
interest were as follows (in thousands):

As discussed in Note 6, the Companys conversion
feature contained in its 6.5% Debentures is required to be
accounted for separately and recorded as a derivative financial
instrument measured at fair value. The Company has determined
that the derivative represents a Level 3 financial
liability in the fair value hierarchy. The estimate of fair
value was determined through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation
lattice option-pricing model. The assumptions used in the
valuation model include the Companys stock closing price
of $4.47, expected volatility of 50%, a discount rate of 10.95%,
using United States Treasury Bond Rates of 1.39% and risk
adjusted rates of 7.97% for the time value of options. The
following table sets forth a reconciliation of changes in the
fair value of the Companys derivative liability as
classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy (in
thousands).

As of December 31, 2007, assets held for sale included land
and buildings related to the Companys Houma, Louisiana
site and two marine vessels. In 2007, the Company decided to
relocate its Houma, Louisiana site to St. Rose, Louisiana and to
sell the land and buildings located in Houma. These assets had
an aggregate net book value of approximately $1.7 million.
The Houma facility sale was completed in February 2008 for net
proceeds of $4.6 million, resulting in a $2.9 million
gain on sale.
Marine vessels held for sale at December 31, 2007 included
a crew boat and a supply vessel. During 2008, the Company sold
the supply boat for $0.7 million in January 2008 and sold
three vessels in April 2008 for net proceeds of
$1.7 million. The sale price of these marine vessels sold
in 2008 approximated their carrying value.

During 2007, three supply vessels and one Crew / Line Handler
were sold for $4.5 million in net proceeds with a
corresponding aggregate gain of $2.8 million.

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes, a full valuation
allowance has been recorded against the Companys 2008 and
2007 U.S. net operating losses and net deferred tax assets,
as management does not consider the benefit to be more likely
than not to be realized.
The Company has undistributed earnings of approximately
$272.7 million in its foreign subsidiaries. The Company has
not recorded a deferred tax liability with respect to these
earnings because the Company does not expect those unremitted
earnings to be repatriated and taxable to the Company. The
amount of the unrecognized deferred tax liability for temporary
differences related to investments in foreign subsidiaries has
not been disclosed because it is impractical to calculate the
amount at this time. The Company does not anticipate
repatriating funds from its Cayman Island subsidiary to the
U.S.; the Company plans to use the funds in the Cayman Islands
for future international expansion. It is not anticipated that
the Company will need to repatriate any additional funds from
Norway in the near future to fund U.S. operations or
expansion.

The provisions (benefits) for income taxes as reported are
different from the provisions (benefits) computed by applying
the statutory federal income tax rate. The differences are

A valuation allowance was provided against the Companys
U.S. net deferred tax asset as of the reorganization date.
Fresh-start accounting rules require that release of the
valuation allowance recorded against pre-confirmation net
deferred tax assets is reflected as an increase to additional
paid-in capital. To date, the Company has released approximately
$49.8 million of the valuation allowance related to the
pre-confirmation net deferred tax asset, which has increased the
Companys additional
paid-in-capital
account. As of December 31, 2008, the remaining net
operating loss was approximately $69.8 million.
Although the Company recorded a profit from operations in recent
years from its U.S. operations, the history of negative
earnings from these operations and the emphasis to expand the
Companys presence in growing international markets
constitutes significant negative evidence substantiating the
need for a full valuation allowance against the U.S. net
deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2008. The Company
will use cumulative profitability and future income projections
as key indicators to substantiate the release of the valuation
allowance. This will result in an increase in additional
paid-in-capital
at the time the valuation allowance is reduced. If the
Companys U.S. operations continue to be profitable,
it is possible we will release the valuation allowance at some
future date.
As of December 31, the Company has remaining net operating
losses in certain of its Norwegian and Brazilian entities
totaling $152.9 million, resulting in a deferred tax asset
of $43.4. A valuation allowance of $23.4 million was
provided against the financial losses generated in one of the
Companies Norwegian tonnage entities as the loss can only be
utilized against future financial taxable profit and it is not
possible to use group relief to offset taxable profits and
losses for group companies subject to tonnage taxation. The
remaining losses have an indefinite carry forward and will not
expire.
Uncertain Tax Positions The Company conducts
business globally and, as a result, its or more of its
subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal
jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the
normal course of business the Company is subject to examination
by taxing authorities worldwide, including such major
jurisdictions as Norway, Mexico, Brazil, Nigeria, Angola, Hong
Kong, China, United Kingdom, Australia and the United States.
With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to
U.S. federal, state and local, or
non-U.S. income
tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2003.

The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,
on January 1, 2007. As a result of adoption, the Company
recognized approximately $0.1 million to the
January 1, 2007 retained earnings balance. A reconciliation
of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits

The entire balance of unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized,
would affect the Companys effective tax rate. The Company
recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to
unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. During the
years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company
recognized approximately $0.1 million and
$1.1 million, respectively, in interest and penalties.
Norwegian Shipping Tax Regime Norwegian
Tonnage Tax legislation was enacted as part of the 2008
Norwegian budgetary process in essentially the same form as
proposed in October 2007. This new tonnage tax regime is applied
retroactively to January 1, 2007 forward and is similar to
other EU tonnage tax regimes. As a result, all shipping and
certain related income, but not financial income, is exempt from
ordinary corporate income tax and subjected to a tonnage based
tax. Unlike the current regime, where the taxation was only due
upon a distribution of profits or an outright exit from the
regime, the new regime provides for a tax exemption on profits
earned after January 1, 2007.
As part of the legislation, the previous tonnage tax regime
covering the period from 1996 through 2006 was repealed.
Companies that are in the current regime, and enter into the new
regime, will be subject to tax at 28% for all accumulated
untaxed shipping profits generated between 1996 through
December 31, 2006 in the tonnage tax company. Two-thirds of
the liability (NOK 251 million, $36.0 million) is
payable in equal installments over 10 years. The remaining
one-third of the tax liability (NOK 126 million,
$18.1 million) can be met through qualified environmental
expenditures. Any remaining portion of the environmental part of
the liability not expended at the end of fifteen years would be
payable to the Norwegian tax authorities at that time. At
December 31, 2008, the Companys total tonnage tax
liability was NOK 359 million ($51.5 million).
The Companys policy under the previous regime was to
recognize the deferred taxes associated with the earnings of its
Norwegian Shipping tax regime subsidiary based on the 28%
Norwegian statutory rate, which as of December 31, 2006,
totaled NOK 394 million ($56.5 million at
December 31, 2006). As a result of the enactment, the
accumulated untaxed shipping profits were calculated pursuant to
the transitional rules and determined to be NOK 377 million
($54.0 million at December 31, 2006). The Company
adjusted its liability and recognized a foreign tax payable of
$69.4 million and a tax- benefit in earnings of
$2.8 million in 2007 related to the change.
Tonnage Tax Restructuring. Trico Shipping AS,
as a Norwegian tonnage tax entity, cannot own shares in a
non-publicly listed entity with the exception of other Norwegian
tonnage tax entities. Subsequent to the acquisition of DeepOcean
ASA by Trico Shipping AS, DeepOcean ASA was delisted from the
Oslo Bors exchange in August 2008. Trico Shipping AS had until
January 31, 2009, under a series of waivers provided by the
Norwegian Central Tax Office, to transfer its ownership interest
in DeepOcean AS and the non tonnage tax entities. Failure to
comply with this deadline would have resulted in the income of
Trico Shipping AS being subject to a 28% tax rate and an exit
tax liability,
F-39
payable over a ten year period, being due and payable
immediately. In a series of steps completed in December of 2008
and January of 2009, the ownership of DeepOcean AS and its non
tonnage tax related subsidiaries was transferred to Trico Supply
AS and the tonnage tax related entities owned by DeepOcean AS
became subsidiaries of Trico Shipping AS. Following completion
of these steps on January 30, 2009, Trico satisfied the
tonnage tax requirements.
Mexican Tax System Changes On October 1,
2007, the Mexican Government enacted substantial changes to its
tax system. The new tax law generally took effect on
January 1, 2008. Of particular importance is the laws
introduction of a flat tax (known as IETU), which replaces
Mexicos asset tax and will apply to taxpaying entities
along with Mexicos regular income tax. The Company
believes that this flat tax is an income tax and should be
accounted for under FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting
for Income Taxes. In addition, the Company filed a claim
with the Mexican judicial system challenging the
constitutionality of this tax.
Authorized Shares In August 2008, holders of
shares of the Companys common stock approved an amendment
to the Companys Second Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation to increase the total number of authorized shares
of the Companys common stock from 25,000,000 to
50,000,000 shares.
Common Stock Repurchase Program In
July 2007, the Companys Board of Directors authorized the
repurchase of $100.0 million of the Companys common
stock in open-market transactions, including block purchases, or
in privately negotiated transactions (the Repurchase
Program). The Company expended $17.6 million for the
repurchase of 570,207 common shares, at an average price paid
per common share of $30.87 during 2007. There were no share
purchases under the repurchase program in 2008. Other than
shares purchased pursuant to the agreement described below, all
shares were repurchased in open market transactions.
On August 9, 2007, the Company entered into a stock
purchase agreement (the Agreement) with Kistefos AS,
a Norwegian stock company (Kistefos), pursuant to
which the Company may purchase up to $20.0 million of
shares of the Companys common stock from Kistefos from
time to time during the period beginning August 9, 2007 and
ending on the earlier of (i) the date the Company has
acquired $20.0 million of shares from Kistefos,
(ii) the date the Company publicly announces the
termination or expiration of the Companys Repurchase
Program or (iii) the date on which Kistefos ceases to hold
any shares.
In accordance with the Agreement, upon the purchases of shares
of its common stock from other stockholders, pursuant to the
Repurchase Program, the Company will purchase from Kistefos an
amount equal to the number of Kistefos shares which could
be sold such that Kistefos percentage ownership of the
Companys common stock will remain unchanged. The purchase
price that the Company will pay Kistefos for any such purchases
will equal the volume weighted average price for all shares
purchased in the other purchases on the applicable purchase
date. This Agreement is subject to limitations and adjustments
from time to time in order to comply with applicable regulations
promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
According to amendment 12 to Schedule 13D filed by Kistefos
on July 31, 2007, as of the date of the Agreement, Kistefos
beneficially owned 3,000,000 shares of the Companys
outstanding shares of common stock or approximately 20.0% of the
outstanding shares. Of the 570,207 common shares purchased
pursuant to the Repurchase Program, 114,042 were purchased from
Kistefos pursuant to the Agreement.
All of the shares repurchased in the Repurchase Program are held
as treasury stock. The Company records treasury stock
repurchases under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the
acquired stock is recorded as treasury stock.
F-40
Warrants to Purchase Common Stock In
2005, the Company issued 499,429 Series A Warrants
(representing the right to purchase one share of the
Companys new common stock for $18.75 expiring on
March 15, 2010) and 499,429 Series B Warrants
(representing the right to purchase one share of the
Companys new common stock for $25.00 expiring on
March 15, 2008) to each holder of the Companys
old common stock. During 2008, 1,128 Series A Warrants and
471,747 Series B Warrants were exercised for aggregate
proceeds of $11.8 million. On March 17, 2008, 24,241
Series B Warrants expired unexercised and no Series B
warrants remain outstanding. As of December 31, 2008,
494,074 Series A Warrants remain available for exercise.
Stockholder Rights Plan In April 2007, the
Companys Board of Directors adopted a Stockholder Rights
Plan, the (Rights Plan). Under the Rights Plan, the Company
declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a
Right) for each outstanding share of common stock held by
stockholders of record as of the close of business on
April 19, 2007.
In April 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company approved
the termination of the Rights Plan. The Board approved the
acceleration of the final expiration date of the rights issued
pursuant to the Rights Plan to April 28, 2008, at which
date, at the close of business, the Rights Plan was terminated.
The Rights have been de-registered and are no longer available
for issuance under the Companys amended by-laws.
Earnings per common share was computed based on the following

The calculation of diluted earnings per share excludes equity
awards representing rights to acquire 1,239, 86 and
58 shares of common stock during 2008, 2007, and 2006,
respectively, because the effect was antidilutive. Typically,
awards are antidilutive when the exercise price of the options
is greater than the average market price of the common stock for
the period or when the results from operations are a net loss.
The Companys 3% Debentures and 6.5% Debentures
were not dilutive as the average price of the Companys
common stock was less than the conversion price for each series
of the debentures during the presented periods they were
outstanding (Note 5). Although the Company has the option
of settling the principal amount of 6.5% Debentures in
either cash, stock or a combination of both, managements
current intention is to settle the amounts when converted with
available cash on hand, through borrowings under the
Companys existing lines of credit or other refinancing as
necessary. Therefore, the Company has excluded the potential
dilutive effect of the principal amount of these
6.5% Debentures in the calculation of diluted earnings per
share.

Stock-Based
Compensation
|
The 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2004 Plan), which
was approved by shareholders, provides for the grant of
incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted
stock and unrestricted stock awards to key employees and
directors of the Company. There were 487,429 shares
remaining available for issuance under the 2004 Plan as of
December 31, 2008.
Stock options granted to date have an exercise price equal to
the market value of the common stock on the date of grant and
generally expire seven years from the date of grant. Grants of
restricted stock are issued at the market value of the common
stock on the date of grant. Restricted stock and stock options
granted to the Companys employees generally vest in annual
increments over a three or four-year period beginning one year
from the grant date and compensation expense is recognized on a
straight line basis. Awards granted to directors generally vest
after thirty days from the grant date.
Total stock-based compensation expense recognized was
$3.8 million, $3.2 million and $2.0 million, for
the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The Company has not recognized any tax benefits in
connection with stock-based compensation expense as a result of
the valuation allowance recorded against its U.S. net
deferred tax assets.
At December 31, 2008, there was $4.5 million of
unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock option
and restricted stock awards. This cost is expected to be
recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately
1.2 years.
Stock Options The fair value of each option
award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option valuation model. The Black-Scholes model assumes that
option exercises occur at the end of an options
contractual term and that expected volatility, expected
dividends, and risk-free interest rates are constant over the
options term. The expected term represents the period of
time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The
risk-free interest rate of the option is based on the
U.S. Treasury zero-coupon with a remaining term equal to
the expected term used in the assumption model. The fair value
of options was estimated using the following assumptions:

Employee Benefit
Plans
|
Defined
Contribution Plan
The Company has a defined contribution profit sharing plan under
Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the
Plan) that covers substantially all
U.S. employees meeting certain eligibility requirements.
Employees may contribute any percentage of their eligible
compensation on a pre-tax basis (subject to certain ERISA
limitations). The Company will match 25% of the
participants pre-tax contributions up to 5% of the
participants taxable wages or salary. The Company may also
make an additional matching contribution to the Plan at its
discretion. For the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and
2006, the Company made contributions to the Plan of
approximately $0.1 million, $0.2 million and
$0.2 million, respectively.
The Companys United Kingdom employees at CTC Marine,
acquired in May 2008, participate in a defined contribution plan
covering substantially all of its employees. The Company
contributes 5% of eligible employees base salary annually
and employee contributions are optional. For the year ended
December 31, 2008, the Company contributions totaled
approximately $0.3 million.
Defined
Benefit Plans
United Kingdom Pension Plan Certain of the
Companys United Kingdom employees are covered by the
Merchant Navy Officers Pension Fund (the MNOPF
Plan), a non-contributory, multiemployer defined benefit
pension plan. Plan actuarial valuations are determined every
three years. The most recent actuarial valuation was completed
in 2006 which resulted in a funding deficit of approximately
$1.6 million, reflected in other liabilities in the
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008. During
the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, the
Company recognized costs of $0.2 million,
$0.6 million, and $1.1 million, respectively, for the
MNOPF Plan, representing assessments of current obligations to
the MNOPF Plan.
Norwegian Pension Plans Substantially all of
the Companys Norwegian employees are covered by two
non-contributory, defined benefit pension plans. Benefits are
based primarily on participants compensation and years of
credited services. The Companys policy is to fund
contributions to the plans based upon actuarial computations.
In 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for
Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans. The
Company adopted SFAS No. 158 on December 31,
2006. The adoption of SFAS 158 required the Company to
recognize the over-funded pension asset and the under-funded
pension liability on the consolidated balance
F-43
sheets. The Company recognized as accumulated other
comprehensive loss, net of taxes, the actuarial gains and losses
and Norwegian social security obligations that arose but were
not previously required to be recognized as components of net
periodic benefit cost. In subsequent periods, other
comprehensive income will be adjusted as these amounts are
recognized into income as components of net periodic benefit
cost.

legislation, one of the three Norwegian defined benefit pension
plans, outstanding as of December 31, 2006, was terminated
on January 1, 2007. The Company accounted for the plan
termination as a plan settlement.

The vested benefit obligation is calculated as the actuarial
present value of the vested benefits to which employees are
currently entitled based on the employees expected date of
separation or retirement. The weighted average assumptions shown
below were used for both the determination of net periodic
benefit cost, and the determination of benefit obligations as of
the measurement date. In determining the weighted average
assumptions, the Company reviewed overall market performance and
specific historical performance of the investments in the plan.

Noncontrolling
Interest of Consolidated Subsidiaries
|
On June 30, 2006, the Company entered into a long-term
shareholders agreement with a wholly-owned subsidiary of China
Oilfield Services Limited (COSL) for the purpose of
providing marine transportation services for offshore oil and
gas exploration, production and related construction and
pipeline projects mainly in Southeast Asia/China. As a result of
this agreement, the companies formed a limited-liability
company, Eastern Marine Services Limited (EMSL),
located in Hong Kong. The Company owns a 49% interest in EMSL,
and COSL owns a 51% interest.
EMSL is managed pursuant to the terms of its shareholders
agreement which provides for equal representation for COSL and
the Company on the board of directors and in management. In
exchange for its 49% interest in EMSL, the Company agreed to
contribute 14 vessels. COSL made a capital contribution to
EMSL of approximately $20.9 million in cash in exchange for
its 51% interest. In exchange for the Companys
contribution of 14 vessels, EMSL paid the Company
approximately $17.9 million, $3.5 million of which was
held in escrow until the second closing which occurred on
January 1, 2008. Of the 14 vessels contributed to
EMSL, five were mobilized during 2007 with an additional five
vessels in 2008. Two of the remaining four vessels are bareboat
contracted to the Company in West Africa with plans to mobilize
to Southeast Asia/China in 2009. The last two vessels are
operated by the Company under a management agreement with EMSL.
There is potential for the Company to provide subordinated
financial support as required per the shareholders agreement to
fund, in proportion to the shareholders respective
ownership percentages, project
start-up
costs associated with the development and establishment of EMSL
to the extent they exceed the working capital of EMSL. Under the
rules of FIN 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities, because of the potential for disproportionate
economic return, the Company presents the financial position and
results of operations of EMSL on a consolidated basis.
For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the
partners share of EMSLs income (loss) was
approximately $6.8 million and ($3.2) million,
respectively, which is recorded as a component of
Noncontrolling Interest in the Companys
Consolidated Statements of Income.

At December 31, 2007, the Company consolidated its 49%
variable interest in a Mexican subsidiary, Naviera Mexicana de
Servicios, S. de R.L de CV (NAMESE). The remaining
51% interest is held by a company incorporated in Mexico ( the
Partner). Effective January 1, 2008, the
Company executed an agreement with the Partner providing them
with an agency fee that will pay them a per diem rate based on
the number of vessels operating in Mexico. In conjunction with
the execution of the agency agreement, the shareholders of
NAMESE also agreed to amend the by-laws, which among other
things, granted a put option to the Partner enabling them to
require Trico to purchase their equity interest in NAMESE at a
specified strike price. Because the Partner could require Trico
to purchase their shares in NAMESE at a specified price via
their put option, an event outside of Tricos control, the
Partners shares were deemed to be mandatorily redeemable
pursuant to the requirements of FAS 150, Accounting
for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both
Liabilities and Equity. Mandatorily redeemable financial
instruments must be accounted for as liabilities under
FAS 150 at a value based on their estimated redemption
amount. As a result, the Company recorded a liability of
approximately $0.2 million reflecting the estimated
redemption amount of the Partners equity interest, and
eliminated the Partners noncontrolling interest in the net
assets of NAMESE on the consolidated balance sheet. The
difference between the carrying value of the noncontrolling
interest and the estimated redemption liability has been
reflected as an adjustment to the carrying value of the assets
in NAMESE, consistent with step acquisition accounting
requirements. Additionally, because the Partner is no longer
deemed to hold a residual equity interest in NAMESE, the Company
recognizes 100% of the consolidated profit of NAMESE, with no
adjustment for noncontrolling interest.
F-47
For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Partners
share of NAMESEs profits was approximately
$0.8 million, which reduced Noncontrolling
Interest in the Companys Consolidated Statements of
Income.
In 2008, DeepOcean entered into a joint venture for the
construction of a vessel. At December 31, 2008, DeepOcean
had contributed $3.5 million.

Commitments and
Contingencies
|
Litigation In the ordinary course of
business, the Company is involved in certain personal injury,
pollution and property damage claims and related threatened or
pending legal proceedings. The Company does not believe that any
of these proceedings, if adversely determined, would have a
material adverse effect on its financial position, results of
operations or cash flows. Additionally, certain claims would be
covered under the Companys insurance policies. Management,
after review with legal counsel and insurance representatives,
is of the opinion these claims and legal proceedings will be
resolved within the limits of the Companys various
insurance policies. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the
Company accrued for liabilities in the amount of approximately
$2.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively, based
upon the gross amount that management believes it may be
responsible for paying in connection with these matters. The
amounts the Company will ultimately be responsible for paying in
connection with these matters could differ materially from
amounts accrued.
Brazilian Tax Assessments On March 22,
2002, the Companys Brazilian subsidiary received a
non-income tax assessment from a Brazilian state tax authority
for approximately 28.6 million Reais ($12.3 million at
December 31, 2008). The tax assessment is based on the
premise that certain services provided in Brazilian federal
waters are considered taxable by certain Brazilian states as
transportation services. The Company filed a timely defense at
the time of the assessment. In September 2003, an administrative
court upheld the assessment. In response, the Company filed an
administrative appeal in the Rio de Janeiro administrative tax
court in October 2003. In November 2005, the Companys
appeal was submitted to the Brazilian state attorneys for their
response. On December 8, 2008, the final hearing took place
and the Higher Administrative Tax Court ruled in favor of Trico.
The Company is currently waiting for the notification of the
State Attorneys Office of the ruling and the subsequent appeal
to be filed by them with the Special Court of the Higher
Administrative Tax Court. The Company is under no obligation to
pay the assessment unless and until such time as all appropriate
appeals are exhausted. The Company intends to vigorously
challenge the imposition of this tax. Many of our competitors in
the marine industry have also received similar non-income tax
assessments. Broader industry actions have been taken against
the tax in the form of a suit filed at the Brazilian Federal
Supreme Court seeking a declaration that the state statute
attempting to tax the industrys activities is
unconstitutional. This assessment is not income tax based and is
therefore not accounted for under FIN 48. The Company has
not accrued any amounts for the assessment of the liability.
During the third quarter of 2004, the Company received a
separate non-income tax assessment from the same Brazilian state
tax authority for approximately 3.0 million Reais
($1.3 million
F-48
at December 31, 2008). This tax assessment is based on the
same premise as noted above. The Company filed a timely defense
in October 2004. In January 2005, an administrative court upheld
the assessment. In response, the Company filed an administrative
appeal in the Rio de Janeiro administrative tax court in
February 2006. On January 22, 2009, the Company filed a
petition requesting for the connection of the two cases, and
asking for the remittance of the case to the other
Administrative Section that ruled favorable to Trico in the
other case mentioned above. The President of the Higher
Administrative Tax Court is analyzing this request. This
assessment is not income tax based and is therefore not
accounted for under FIN 48. The Company has not accrued any
amounts for the assessment of the liability.
If the Companys challenges to the imposition of these
taxes (which may include litigation at the Rio de Janeiro state
court) prove unsuccessful, current contract provisions and other
factors could potentially mitigate the Companys tax
exposure. Nonetheless, an unfavorable outcome with respect to
some or all of the Companys Brazilian state tax
assessments could have a material adverse affect on the
Companys financial position and results of operations if
the potentially mitigating factors also prove unsuccessful.
Construction Commitments At December 31,
2008, we had total construction commitments of
$182.8 million for the construction of nine vessels, of
which $110.5 million, $72.3 million and
$10.6 million are expected to be paid in 2009, 2010 and
2011, respectively, based on anticipated delivery schedules
which are subject to potential delays. Of the total construction
commitments, the Company has obtained financing for
approximately $111.1 million. The total purchase price for
each vessel is subject to certain adjustments based on the
timing of delivery and the vessels specifications upon
delivery.
On October 22, 2008, Solstrand Shipyard AS (Solstrand),
filed for bankruptcy in Norway. The Company had contracted
Solstrand to construct and deliver one vessel to supplement its
North Sea fleet. As a result of this bankruptcy, delivery of the
vessel was uncertain and Solstrand Shipyards bankruptcy
counsel had requested a significant increase in purchase price
in order to complete the vessel construction. The Company had
made a down payment of $5 million at time of execution of
the construction contract in March 2006. On November 21,
2008, the Company entered into a termination agreement with
Solstrand Shipyard cancelling the construction contract in
exchange for Solstrand Shipyard returning to the Company its
original investment plus interest, totaling $5.1 million.
The Company had capitalized other costs in relation to the
construction of the vessel, primarily capitalized interest,
totaling $0.8 million which were expensed in connection
with the cancellation. As a result, the Company has no further
payment or other obligations with respect to such contract and
will not be receiving the vessel when completed.
Operating Leases On September 30, 2002,
one of the Companys primary U.S. subsidiaries, Trico
Marine Operators, Inc., entered into a master bareboat charter
agreement (the Master Charter) with General Electric
Capital Corporation (GECC) for the sale-lease back
of three Crew/Line Handlers. All obligations under the Master
Charter are guaranteed by Trico Marine Assets, Inc., the
Companys other primary U.S. subsidiary, and Trico
Marine Services, Inc, the parent company. The Company has
provided GECC with a pledge agreement (the Pledge
Agreement) and $1.7 million cash deposit pursuant to
the Master Charter. The deposit has been classified as
Other Assets in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet.
The Master Charter also contains cross-default provisions, which
could be triggered in the event of certain conditions, or the
default and acceleration of the Company or certain subsidiaries
with respect to any loan agreement which results in an
acceleration of such loan agreement. Upon any event of default
under the Master Charter, GECC could elect to, among other
things, terminate the Master Charter, repossess and sell the
vessels, and require the Company or certain subsidiaries to make
up to a $9.7 million stipulated loss payment to GECC. If
the conditions of the Master Charter requiring the Company to
make a stipulated loss payment to GECC were met, such a payment
could impair the Companys liquidity.
F-49
In December 2004, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback
transaction for its 14,000 square foot primary office in
the North Sea to provide additional liquidity. The Company
entered into a
10-year
operating lease for the use of the facility, with annual rent
payments of approximately $0.3 million. The lease contains
options, at the Companys discretion, to extend the lease
for an additional six years, as well as a fair-value purchase
option at the end of the lease term.
Future minimum payments under non-cancelable operating leases,
which primarily comprise of time charters for vessels due to the
DeepOcean acquisition, with terms in excess of one year in
effect at December 31, 2008, were $115.1 million,
$107.5 million, $63.7 million, $36.2 million,
$28.9 million and $47.3 million for the years ending
December 31, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013, and
subsequent years, respectively. Operating lease expense in 2008,
2007, and 2006 was $63.7 million, $2.7 million and
$1.7 million, respectively.

Segment and
Geographic Information
|
Following the Companys acquisition of DeepOcean,
consideration was given to how management reviews the results of
the new combined organization. Generally, the Company believes
its business is now segregated into three operational units or
segments: Subsea Services, Subsea Trenching and Protection and
Towing and Supply. Therefore, segment data has been
retrospectively adjusted to present prior year data in
accordance with the new reportable segments.
The Towing and Supply segment is generally representative of the
operations of the Company prior to its acquisition of DeepOcean.
The Subsea Services segment is primarily represented by the
DeepOcean operations except for the Subsea Trenching and
Protection segment operations conducted through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, CTC Marine. The Subsea Services segment also
includes seven subsea platform supply vessels (SPSVs) that the
Company had in service prior to the acquisition of DeepOcean.

Two customers, Grupo Diavaz and Statoil, represented more than 10% of consolidated revenues
for the year ended December 31, 2008 totaling 10% and 21%
of total revenues. These amounts are reflected in all three of
the Companys operating segments. No individual customer represented more
than 10% of consolidated revenues for the years ended
December 31, 2007 and 2006. In the normal course of
business, the Company extends credit to its customers on a
short-term basis. Because the Companys principal customers
are national oil companies and major oil and natural gas
exploration, development and production companies, credit risks
associated with its customers are considered minimal. However,
the Company routinely reviews its accounts receivable balances
and makes provisions for probable doubtful accounts as it deems
appropriate.
