NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1.	Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policy

The condensed consolidated financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 has been prepared by the Company and has not been audited by its independent registered public accounting firm. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SEACOR Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2010, its results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, its changes in equity for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year or any future periods.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Unless the context otherwise indicates, any reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the “Company” refers to SEACOR Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and any reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “SEACOR” refers to SEACOR Holdings Inc.

Revenue Recognition. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had deferred $18.5 million of vessel charter hire scheduled to be paid through the conveyance of a limited net profit interest in developmental oil and gas producing properties owned by a customer. Of this amount, $7.5 million was deferred during the six months ended June 30, 2010. The Company expects to defer an additional $3.5 million of vessel charter hire under this arrangement through August 2010. The customer has provided payout estimates indicating the Company will receive future payments of $10.8 million in 2010 and $11.2 million in 2011. Such payments are contingent upon future production. Production from the properties commenced in April 2010 and the first payment of $0.1 million was received and recognized as revenue in June 2010. The Company will recognize revenues as cash is received or earlier should future payments become determinable.

Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications of prior year information have been made to conform to the presentation of current year information.

2.	Financial Instruments

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

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2010 that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows (in thousands):


	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
ASSETS
Marketable securities	$	74,741	$	11,716	$	—
Derivative instruments (included in other receivables)		1,846		3,681		—
Construction reserve funds and Title XI reserve funds		227,184		—		—
LIABILITIES
Short sale of marketable securities (included in other current liabilities)		15,342		—		—
Derivative instruments (included in other current liabilities)		6,685		18,944		—

The estimated fair value of the Company’s other financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2010 were as follows (in thousands):


	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value
ASSETS
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	407,919	$	407,919
Investments, at cost, in 50% or less owned companies (included in other assets)		7,847		see below
Notes receivable from other business ventures (included in other assets)		4,686		see below
LIABILITIES
Long-term debt, including current portion		696,288		714,534

The carrying value of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was estimated based upon quoted market prices or by using discounted cash flow analyses based on estimated current rates for similar types of arrangements. It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Company’s investments, at cost, in 50% or less owned companies because of the lack of quoted market prices and the inability to estimate fair value without incurring excessive costs. It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Company’s notes receivable from other business ventures because the timing of settlement of these notes is not certain. Considerable judgment was required in developing certain of the estimates of fair value and, accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

Marketable Securities. Marketable security gains (losses), net include losses of $5.3 million and gains of $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, related to marketable security positions held by the Company as of June 30, 2010. Marketable security gains (losses), net include losses of $1.9 million and $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, related to marketable security positions held by the Company as of June 30, 2010.

3.	Derivative Instruments and Hedging Strategies

Derivative instruments are classified as either assets or liabilities based on their individual fair values. Derivative assets and liabilities are included in other receivables and other current liabilities, respectively, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments as of June 30, 2010 were as follows (in thousands):

Fair Value Hedges. As of June 30, 2010, the Company has designated certain of its forward currency exchange contracts with notional values of €76.0 million as fair value hedges in respect of capital commitments denominated in euros for assets scheduled to be delivered in 2010 through 2013. By entering into these forward currency exchange contracts, the Company has fixed a portion of its euro capital commitments in U.S. dollars to protect against currency fluctuations. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company designated €68.0 million notional value of its forward currency exchange contracts as fair value hedges, in addition to €16.0 million previously so designated as of December 31, 2009. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company dedesignated €8.0 million notional value of these contracts as fair value hedges.

The Company recognized gains (losses) on derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges for the six months ended June 30 as follows (in thousands):


	Derivative gains (losses), net
	2010			2009
Forward currency exchange contracts, effective and ineffective portions	$	(11,503	)	$	(203	)
Increase in fair value of hedged items included in property and equipment corresponding to effective portion of derivative losses		11,441			516

	$	(62	)	$	313

Cash Flow Hedges. As of June 30, 2010, the Company is a party to various interest rate swap agreements with maturities ranging from 2013 to 2014 that have been designated as cash flow hedges. These agreements call for the Company to pay fixed interest rates ranging from 2.25% to 2.85% on aggregate notional values of $125.0 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on these notional values. By entering into these

interest rate swap agreements, the Company has converted the variable LIBOR component of certain of its outstanding borrowings to a fixed interest rate. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, one of the Company’s Offshore Marine Services joint ventures dedesignated its interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge.

The Company recognized gains (losses) on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges for the six months ended June 30 as follows (in thousands):

The Company’s investment in equity options primarily includes positions in energy, marine, transportation and other related businesses. These contracts are typically entered into to mitigate the risk of changes in market value of marketable security positions that the Company is either about to acquire, has acquired or is about to dispose of.

The Company has entered into and settled forward currency exchange, option and future contracts with respect to various foreign currencies. As of June 30, 2010, the outstanding forward currency exchange contracts translated into a net purchase of foreign currencies with an aggregate U.S. dollar equivalent of $47.0 million. These contracts enable the Company to buy currencies in the future at fixed exchange rates, which could offset possible consequences of changes in foreign exchange rates with respect to the Company’s business conducted in Europe, Africa, Mexico, Central and South America, the Middle East and Asia. The Company generally does not enter into contracts with forward settlement dates beyond twelve to eighteen months.

The Company has entered into various interest rate swap agreements maturing in 2012 and 2013 that call for the Company to pay fixed interest rates ranging from 1.79% to 2.59% on aggregate notional values of $72.3 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on these notional values. In addition, one of the

Company’s Offshore Marine Services 50-50 joint ventures has entered into an interest rate swap agreement maturing in 2014. This instrument calls for the joint venture to pay a fixed interest rate of 3.05% on the amortized notional value of $28.0 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the notional value. The general purpose of these interest rate swap agreements is to provide protection against increases in interest rates, which might lead to higher interest costs for the Company or its joint venture.

The Company has entered into and settled positions in various commodity swap, option and future contracts (primarily natural gas, crude oil, gasoline, ethanol, sugar and rice). The general purpose of these transactions is to provide value to the Company should there be a sustained decline in the price of commodities that could lead to a reduction in the market values and cash flows of the Company’s offshore, inland river and commodity trading and logistics businesses.

The Company has entered into various forward contracts with unrelated third parties to buy and sell commodities. These contracts are non-exchange traded and typically result in physical delivery of the underlying commodity upon settlement. As of June 30, 2010, the Company carried inventory (primarily ethanol) of $29.3 million relating to such settled transactions.

The Company has entered into and settled various positions in U.S. treasury notes and bonds through futures or options on futures tied to U.S. treasury notes. The general purpose of these transactions is to provide value to the Company should the price of U.S. treasury notes and bonds decline, leading to generally higher interest rates, which might lead to higher interest costs for the Company.

4.	Business Acquisitions

PIER Acquisition. On December 1, 2009, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of PIER Systems Inc. (“PIER”), a provider of crisis communication consulting services and software in the United States and abroad, for $2.3 million ($1.7 million paid in 2009, and accrued contingent consideration of $0.6 million). The selling stockholders of PIER have the opportunity to receive additional consideration of up to $1.3 million based upon certain performance measures over the period from the date of acquisition through May 2011. The Company performed a preliminary fair value analysis and the purchase price was allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities based on their fair values resulting in no goodwill being recorded. The preliminary fair value analysis is pending the completion of a final valuation for the acquired assets and liabilities.

RMA Acquisition. On October 1, 2006, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Response Management Associates, Inc. (“RMA”), a provider of environmental consulting services, for $12.5 million. The selling stockholder of RMA has the opportunity to receive additional consideration of up to $8.5 million based upon certain performance measures over the period from the date of the acquisition through September 30, 2012, which will be recognized by the Company as additional cost of the acquisition when the contingency is resolved and when any additional consideration is distributable. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company paid $0.2 million of additional consideration in accordance with the acquisition agreement. As of June 30, 2010, the Company has paid $2.3 million, in the aggregate, of additional consideration, which was recorded as additional goodwill.

Purchase Price Allocation. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price for the Company’s business acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2010 (in thousands):


Property and equipment	$	824
Goodwill		210
Accounts payable and other current liabilities		(807	)

Purchase price	$	227

5.	Equipment Acquisitions, Dispositions and Depreciation and Impairment Policies

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, capital expenditures were $115.0 million. Equipment deliveries during the period included one offshore support vessel, 38 inland river dry cargo barges and three helicopters.

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company sold two offshore support vessels, one helicopter, one ocean liquid tank barge and other equipment. In addition, the Company received insurance proceeds related to the nationalization of one of its offshore support vessels and the total constructive loss of another offshore support vessel under construction. The Company received $58.3 million on the disposition of these assets, including the insurance proceeds, and recognized net gains of $18.1 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company acquired two aircraft, spare engines and other equipment for $19.0 million. Upon acquisition, the assets were leased to third parties for various terms expiring through 2014. The Company has accounted for the leases as sales type leases because ownership of the assets transfers to the lessee at the end of the lease term.

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

As of June 30, 2010, the estimated useful life (in years) of each of the Company’s major categories of new equipment was as follows:


Offshore support vessels		20
U.S.-flag tankers⁽¹⁾		25
Inland river dry cargo and deck barges		20
Inland river liquid tank barges		25
Inland river towboats		25
Helicopters		12
Harbor and offshore tugs		25
Ocean liquid tank barges		25

(1)	Subject to Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (“OPA 90”) requirements.

The Company performs an impairment analysis of long-lived assets used in operations, including intangible assets, when indicators of impairment are present. If the carrying value of the assets is not recoverable, as determined by the estimated undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value of the assets is reduced to fair value. Generally, fair value is determined using valuation techniques, such as expected discounted cash flows or appraisals, as appropriate.

The Company believes the Seabulk America is one of six vessels designed and certified to carry complicated chemical cargoes in the domestic coastwise trade. Given the overriding effects of the global economic slowdown, demand for the Seabulk America’s specialized capabilities has remained soft through June 30, 2010. The Company believes the chemical industry has endured a cyclical market down-turn and, as anticipated, the market appears to be improving with indications of positive future prospects. The Seabulk America requires a regulatory drydocking during the third quarter of 2010, a requirement for continued operation, and a decision as to whether or not this expenditure should be incurred will be made against the then prevailing market conditions. A decision

to cease vessel operations and lay-up the Seabulk America could potentially result in a significant impairment charge. The carrying value of the Seabulk America was $24.1 million as of June 30, 2010 and it contributed operating revenues of $4.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

6.	Investments at Equity and Receivables from 50% or Less Owned Companies

ICP. On November 20, 2009, the Company and an ingredients and distillery product manufacturer formed Illinois Corn Processing LLC (“ICP”), a 50-50 joint venture to own and operate an alcohol manufacturing facility dedicated to the production of alcohol for beverage, industrial and fuel applications. The Company provided a $10.0 million five-year term loan and a $20.0 million three-year revolving line of credit to ICP subject to certain borrowing restrictions. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company and its joint venture partner each contributed an additional $1.0 million to acquire additional equipment. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, ICP had net borrowings under the terms of the term loan and revolving line of credit of $11.2 million. As of June 30, 2010, the outstanding balances under the term loan and revolving line of credit were $9.8 million and $5.5 million, respectively.

SCFCo. On February 20, 2007, the Company and a third party in South America formed SCFCo Holdings LLC (“SCFCo”), a 50-50 joint venture, to operate towboats and dry cargo barges on the Parana-Paraguay Rivers. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, SCFCo agreed to further expand its operation to include three additional towboats, 60 additional dry cargo barges and make improvements to certain of its terminal operations. In order to purchase the additional equipment and make the improvements, SCFCo expanded its bank financing and each joint venture partner funded additional capital of $9.1 million and a temporary working capital advance of $3.7 million.

7.	Commitments and Contingencies

The Company’s unfunded capital commitments as of June 30, 2010 consisted primarily of offshore support vessels, helicopters, an aircraft, an interest in a dry-bulk articulated tug-barge, a harbor and offshore tug and other equipment. These commitments totaled $247.0 million, of which $115.9 million is payable during the remainder of 2010 with the balance payable through 2013. Of the total unfunded capital commitments, $2.8 million may be terminated without further liability.

The Company has guaranteed the payment of amounts owed by one of its joint ventures under a vessel charter agreement that expires in 2011 and has guaranteed amounts owed under banking facilities by certain of its joint ventures with expirations through 2015. As of June 30, 2010, the total amount guaranteed by the Company under these arrangements was $27.5 million. Additionally, as of June 30, 2010, the Company had an uncalled capital commitment to one of its joint ventures for $1.4 million.

Under United States law, “United States persons” are prohibited from business activities and contracts in certain countries, including Sudan and Iran. Relating to these prohibitions, Seabulk International, Inc., (“Seabulk”) a subsidiary of SEACOR acquired in July 2005, filed three reports with and submitted documents to the Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”) of the U.S. Department of Treasury in December 1999 and January and May 2002. One of the reports was also filed with the Bureau of Export Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce. The reports and documents related to certain limited charters with third parties involving three Seabulk vessels that called in Sudan for several months in 1999 and January 2000 and charters with third parties involving several of Seabulk’s vessels that called in Iran in 1998. In March 2003, Seabulk received notification from OFAC that the case has been referred to its Civil Penalties Division. Should OFAC determine that these activities constituted violations of the laws or regulations, civil penalties, including fines, could be assessed against Seabulk or certain individuals who knowingly participated in such activity. The Company cannot predict the extent of such penalties; however, management does not believe the outcome of these matters will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or its results of operations.

During 2006 and 2007, Marine Transportation Services (“MTS”) had two of its tankers retrofitted to a double-hull configuration in a foreign shipyard to enable each of them to continue to transport crude oil and petroleum products beyond their OPA 90 mandated retirement dates in 2011. Both vessels operate in the U.S. coastwise trade that, under the Shipping Acts, is restricted to vessels built or rebuilt in the United States. In May 2005, MTS received a determination from the U.S. Coast Guard (“USCG”), which administers the United States build requirements of the Shipping Acts, concluding the retrofit work would not constitute a foreign rebuilding and therefore would not jeopardize the tankers’ eligibility to operate in the U.S. coastwise trade. MTS completed the retrofit work in the foreign shipyard in reliance upon the USCG’s determination, which MTS believes was correct and in accord with the USCG’s long-standing regulations and interpretations. On July 9, 2007, a U.S. shipbuilders trade association and two operators of tankers in the U.S. coastwise trade (“Shipbuilders”) commenced a civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Shipbuilders Council of America, Inc., et al. v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security, et al., No. 1:07cv665 (E.D. Va.) (the “SB Trader Litigation”), in which they sought to have the court set aside the USCG’s determination and direct the USCG to revoke the coastwise license of one of the two retrofitted tankers, the Seabulk Trader. MTS intervened in the action to assist the USCG in defending its determination. On April 24, 2008, the Court issued a Memorandum Opinion granting a motion for summary judgment by Shipbuilders setting aside the USCG’s determination and remanding the matter to the USCG for further proceedings with instructions to revoke the coastwise endorsement of the Seabulk Trader. On April 30, 2008, MTS appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit (the “Court of Appeals”), and the lower court’s decision was stayed pending appeal, subject to certain terms (which MTS has also separately appealed). Those terms require that MTS pay to the plaintiffs 12.5% of the revenue generated by the Seabulk Trader from November 7, 2008 in the event that the Court of Appeals affirms the lower court’s decision to revoke its coastwise endorsement (the “Undertaking”). On July 2, 2008, Shipbuilders commenced a second civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, entitled Shipbuilders Council of America, Inc., et al. v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security, et al., No. 1:08cv680 (E.D. Va.) (the “SB Challenge Litigation”), alleging essentially identical claims as those asserted in the SB Trader Litigation against MTS’s second retrofitted tanker, the Seabulk Challenge. MTS has intervened in the SB Challenge Litigation that was stayed pending the decision of the Court of Appeals in the SB Trader Litigation. In September 2009, the Court of Appeals reversed the District Court, holding that the USCG’s interpretation was correct and that the District Court erred in requiring MTS to provide the Undertaking. On January 19, 2010, the District Court: (i) vacated its April 24, 2008 Order to the extent that it directed the USCG to revoke the coastwise endorsement for the Seabulk Trader; (ii) vacated its November 14, 2008 Order providing for the Undertaking; and (iii) remanded the matter to the USCG for further proceedings to reconsider the decision to grant a coastwise endorsement of the Seabulk Trader consistent with the opinion of the Court of Appeals. The loss of coastwise eligibility for its two retrofitted tankers could adversely affect the Company’s consolidated financial condition and its results of operations. The aggregate carrying value of the Company’s two retrofitted tankers was $49.5 million as of June 30, 2010 and such tankers contributed operating revenues of $9.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Certain subsidiaries of the Company are participating employers in an industry-wide, multi-employer, defined benefit pension fund, the United Kingdom Merchant Navy Officers Pension Fund (“MNOPF”). Under the direction of a court order, any deficit of the MNOPF is to be remedied through funding contributions from all participating employers. The Company’s participation relates to officers employed between 1978 and 2002 by SEACOR’s Stirling group of companies (which had been acquired by SEACOR in 2001) and its predecessors. Based on an actuarial valuation of the MNOPF in 2003, the Company was invoiced and expensed $4.4 million in 2005, representing the Company’s allocated share of a total funding deficit of $412.0 million. Subsequent to this invoice, the pension fund trustees determined that $49.0 million of the $412.0 million deficit was deemed uncollectible due to the non-existence or liquidation of certain participating employers and the Company was invoiced and expensed $0.6 million in March 2007 for its allocated share of the uncollectible deficit. Based on an actuarial valuation of the MNOPF in 2006, the Company was invoiced and expensed $3.9 million in September 2007, representing the Company’s allocated share of an additional funding deficit of $332.6 million. The results of the most recent actuarial valuation of the MNOPF in 2009 indicated that an additional net funding deficit of $587.8 million (£390.0 million) had developed since the previous actuarial valuation in 2006 and the Company

estimates its allocated share of the deficit to be $7.5 million (£5.0 million). When the Company is invoiced for its share, it will recognize payroll related operating expenses in the periods invoices are received. Depending on the results of future actuarial valuations, it is possible that the MNOPF will experience further funding deficits, requiring the Company to recognize payroll related operating expenses in the periods invoices are received.

A subsidiary of the Company is a participating employer in an industry-wide, multi-employer, defined benefit pension fund, the United Kingdom Merchant Navy Ratings Pension Fund (“MNRPF”). The Company’s participation relates to ratings employed between 1978 and 2001 by SEACOR’s Stirling group of companies (which had been acquired by SEACOR in 2001) and its predecessors. Based on an actuarial valuation in March 2008, the MNRPF has an accumulated funding deficit of $306.0 million (£203.0 million). No decision has yet been reached as to how the deficit will be recovered, but the Company expects it is likely that participating employers will be invoiced for their allocated share, at which time the Company would recognize payroll related operating expenses. The Company estimates its allocated share of the uninvoiced deficit to be approximately $1.1 million (£0.7 million). Depending on the results of the most recent and future actuarial valuations, it is possible that the MNRPF will experience further funding deficits, requiring the Company to recognize payroll related operating expenses in the periods invoices are received.

On June 12, 2009, a purported civil class action was filed against SEACOR, Era Group Inc., Era Aviation, Inc., Era Helicopters LLC and two other defendants (collectively the “Defendants”) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, Superior Offshore International, Inc. v. Bristow Group Inc., et al., No. 09-CV-438 (D.Del.). SEACOR acquired Era Group Inc., Era Aviation, Inc., and Era Helicopters LLC in December 2004. The complaint alleges that the Defendants violated federal antitrust laws by conspiring with each other to raise, fix, maintain or stabilize prices for offshore helicopter services in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico during the period January 2001 to December 2005. The purported class of plaintiffs includes all direct purchasers of such services and the relief sought includes compensatory damages and treble damages. The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these claims but believes they are without merit and intends to vigorously defend the action. On September 4, 2009, the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. The District Court has yet to rule on that motion.

On July 14, 2010, a group of individuals and entities purporting to represent a class commenced a civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, Terry G. Robin, et al. v. Seacor Marine, L.L.C., et al., No. 2:10-cv-01986 (E.D. La.), in which they assert that support vessels, including vessels owned by the Company, responding to the explosion and resulting fire that occurred aboard the semi-submersible drilling rig, the Deepwater Horizon, were negligent in their efforts to save lives and put out the fire and contributed to the sinking of the Deepwater Horizon and subsequent oil spill. The complaint seeks compensatory, punitive, exemplary, and other damages. The Company believes that this lawsuit brought by class action lawyers targeting emergency responders acting under the direction of the U.S. Coast Guard has no merit and will seek its dismissal.

On July 20, 2010, two individuals purporting to represent a class commenced a civil action in the Civil District Court for the Parish of Orleans in the State of Louisiana, John Wunstell, Jr. and Kelly Blanchard v. BP, et al., No. 2010-7437 (Division K) (the “Wunstell Action”), in which they assert, among other theories, that Mr. Wunstell suffered injuries as a result of his exposure to certain noxious fumes and chemicals in connection with the provision of remediation, containment and response services by O’Brien’s Response Management Inc., a subsidiary of SEACOR. The complaint also seeks to establish a “class-wide court-supervised medical monitoring program” for all individuals “participating in BP’s Deepwater Horizon Vessels of Opportunity Program and/or Horizon Response Program” who allegedly experience injuries similar to Mr. Wunstell. The Company believes this lawsuit has no merit and will seek its dismissal.

recorded reserves in its financial statements related thereto where appropriate. It is possible that a change in the Company’s estimates of that exposure could occur, but the Company does not expect that any such change in estimated costs would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or its results of operations.

8.	Long-Term Debt and Capital Lease Obligations

As of June 30, 2010, the Company had $125.0 million of outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The remaining availability under this facility was $324.5 million, net of issued letters of credit of $0.5 million. In addition, the Company had other outstanding letters of credit totaling $44.1 million with various expiration dates through 2014.

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company made payments on long-term debt and capital lease obligations of $5.3 million and made net payments on inventory financing arrangements of $19.3 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company redeemed all of the outstanding bonds on two of the Company’s double hull product tankers, in principal amount of $61.9 million, for an aggregate purchase price of $63.0 million, including a make-whole premium, resulting in a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.2 million.

SEACOR’s Board of Directors has previously authorized the Company to purchase any or all of its 5.875% Senior Notes due 2012 and its 7.375% Senior Notes due 2019, which may be acquired through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company purchased $2.4 million, in principal amount, of its 5.875% Senior Notes due 2012, for an aggregate purchase price of $2.5 million, resulting in a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.2 million.

9.	Stock Repurchases

SEACOR’s Board of Directors previously approved a securities repurchase plan that authorizes the Company to acquire shares of SEACOR common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), which may be acquired through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company acquired for treasury 1,615,900 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $120.0 million. On February 18, 2010, SEACOR’s Board of Directors increased the repurchase authority up to $250.0 million and, as of June 30, 2010, the remaining authority under the repurchase plan was $130.1 million.

10.

Earnings Per Common Share of SEACOR

Basic earnings per common share of SEACOR are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the relevant periods. Diluted earnings per common share of SEACOR are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive securities through the application of the treasury stock and if-converted methods. Dilutive securities for this purpose assumes restricted stock grants have vested, common shares have been issued pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock options and common shares have been issued pursuant to the conversion of outstanding convertible debentures. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, diluted earnings per common share of SEACOR excluded 894,714 and 878,807, respectively, of certain share awards as the effect of their inclusion in the computation would have been antidilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, diluted earnings per common share of SEACOR excluded 821,519 and 896,874, respectively, of certain share awards as the effect of their inclusion in the computation would have been antidilutive.

Computations of basic and diluted earnings per common share of SEACOR for the three and six months ended June 30 were as follows (in thousands, except per share data).

Segment Information

Accounting standards require public business enterprises to report information about each of their operating business segments that exceed certain quantitative thresholds or meet certain other reporting requirements. Operating business segments have been defined as a component of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available and is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s basis of measurement of segment profit or loss is as previously described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The following tables summarize the operating results, capital expenditures and assets of the Company’s reportable segments.


	Offshore Marine Services $’000	Marine Transportation Services $’000		Inland River Services $’000	Aviation Services $’000		Environmental Services $’000		Commodity Trading and Logistics $’000		Other $’000		Corporate and Eliminations $’000		Total $’000

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements concerning management’s expectations, strategic objectives, business prospects, anticipated economic performance and financial condition and other similar matters involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements discussed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties and other important factors include, among others: decreased demand and loss of revenues as a result of U.S. government implemented moratoriums directing operators to cease certain drilling activities and any extension of such moratoriums (the “Moratoriums”), weakening demand for the Company’s services as a result of unplanned customer suspensions, cancellations, rate reductions or non-renewals of vessel charters and aviation equipment or failures to finalize commitments to charter vessels and aviation equipment in response to Moratoriums, increased government legislation and regulation of the Company’s businesses could increase cost of operations, increased competition if the Jones Act is repealed, liability, legal fees and costs in connection with providing spill and emergency response services, including the Company’s involvement in response to the oil spill as a result of the sinking of the Deepwater Horizon in April 2010, decreased demand for the Company’s services as a result of declines in the global economy, declines in valuations in the global financial markets and illiquidity in the credit sectors, including, interest rate fluctuations, availability of credit, inflation rates, change in laws, trade barriers, commodity prices and currency exchange fluctuations, the cyclical nature of the oil and gas industry, loss of U.S. coastwise endorsement for the retro-fitted double-hull tankers, Seabulk Trader and Seabulk Challenge, if the Company is unsuccessful in litigation instructing the U.S. Coast Guard to revoke their coastwise charters, activity in foreign countries and changes in foreign political, military and economic conditions, changes in foreign and domestic oil and gas exploration and production activity, safety record requirements related to Offshore Marine Services, Marine Transportation Services and Aviation Services, decreased demand for Marine Transportation Services and Harbor and Offshore Towing Services due to construction of additional refined petroleum products, natural gas or crude oil pipelines or due to decreased demand for refined petroleum products, crude oil or chemical products or a change in existing methods of delivery, compliance with U.S. and foreign government laws and regulations, including environmental laws and regulations, the dependence of Offshore Marine Services, Marine Transportation Services and Aviation Services on several customers, consolidation of the Company’s customer base, the ongoing need to replace aging vessels and aircraft, industry fleet capacity, restrictions imposed by the Shipping Acts and Aviation Acts on the amount of foreign ownership of the Company’s Common Stock, operational risks of Offshore Marine Services, Marine Transportation Services, Harbor and Offshore Towing Services and Aviation Services, effects of adverse weather conditions and seasonality, future phase-out of Marine Transportation Services’ double-bottom tanker, dependence of spill response revenue on the number and size of spills and upon continuing government regulation in this area and Environmental Services’ ability to comply with such regulation and other governmental regulation, changes in National Response Corporation’s Oil Spill Removal Organization classification, liability in connection with providing spill response services, the level of grain export volume, the effect of fuel prices on barge towing costs, variability in freight rates for inland river barges, the effect of international economic and political factors in Inland River Services’ operations, adequacy of insurance coverage, the attraction and retention of qualified personnel by the Company and various other matters and factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, these statements constitute the Company’s cautionary statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. It is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, the following should not be considered a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties. The words “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “believe,” “plan” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of the document in which they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation or undertaking to provide any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which the forward-looking statement is based. The forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q should be evaluated together with the many uncertainties that

affect the Company’s businesses, particularly those mentioned under “Forward-Looking Statements” in Item 7 on the Company’s Form 10-K and SEACOR’s periodic reporting on Form 8-K (if any), which are incorporated by reference.

Overview

The Company’s operations are divided into six main business segments – Offshore Marine Services, Marine Transportation Services, Inland River Services, Aviation Services, Environmental Services and Commodity Trading and Logistics. The Company also has activities that are referred to and described under Other that primarily includes Harbor and Offshore Towing Services, various other investments in joint ventures and lending and leasing activities.

Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Response

The Company’s operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were impacted by oil spill response activities relating to the BP Macondo well incident in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico following the sinking of the semi-submersible drilling rig Deepwater Horizon in April 2010 (the “Oil Spill Response”). Four of the Company’s business segments have been and continue to be actively engaged in the Oil Spill Response. Environmental Services is providing (i) vessels, equipment and people to support clean-up activities both on-shore and at sea, (ii) professional assistance, consulting services and software systems in support of incident management activities, and (iii) assistance in the provision of workers for clean-up operations. Offshore Marine Services is providing (i) vessels for a variety of functions including vessel decontamination, skimming, lightering, offshore traffic control and accommodation, and (ii) technical and video equipment on vessels engaged in the response to allow for instant tracking of assets and surveillance of operations. Aviation Services is providing (i) helicopters for air support to U.S. Coast Guard observers undertaking oil spotting and assessment missions, (ii) transportation for various other officials requiring overflights to assess the response and recovery efforts, and (iii) a flight tracking system to monitor the movement of all marine and aviation assets involved in the response. Harbor and Offshore Towing Services is providing tugs engaged in the decontamination of vessels transiting the region.

The impact of the Deepwater Horizon/BP Macondo well incident on the Company’s future operating results and cash flows is uncertain. Continuing demand for the Company’s assets and services provided in support of the Oil Spill Response will depend on many factors, including the magnitude and duration of ongoing clean-up activities. Oil Spill Response activities are expected to positively impact the Company’s results in the near term but are expected to decline as the oil spill is contained and remediated. As an active party to the Oil Spill Response, the Company has been named in individual and class action litigations involving environmental damage, business and personal injury claims that may result in financial exposure. In reaction to the Deepwater Horizon/BP Macondo well incident, the U.S. Department of the Interior issued an order on May 28, 2010 imposing a six month moratorium on all offshore deepwater drilling projects. A preliminary injunction was issued on June 22, 2010 blocking enforcement of the moratorium; however, the U.S. Department of Interior issued a new moratorium on July 12, 2010. The U.S. Department of Interior has also implemented additional safety and certification requirements for drilling activities, imposed additional requirements for the approval of development and production activities, and delayed the approval of applications to drill in both deepwater and shallow-water areas. The Company’s results, in particular those of its the Offshore Marine Services and Aviation Services segments, could be adversely impacted as a consequence of reduced drilling activities in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. For additional information, see “Contingencies” included below and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in Part II.

Operating Revenues – Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter. Operating revenues increased by $0.7 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Time charter revenues increased by $4.7 million and other operating revenues, including third party brokered vessel activity, bareboat charter revenues and other marine services, decreased by $4.0 million.

The number of days available for charter in the Current Year Quarter was 12,232 compared with 14,064 in the Prior Year Quarter, a 1,832 or 13% reduction, due to net fleet dispositions, including the return of leased vessels to lessors. Overall fleet utilization was 77% in the Current Year Quarter compared with 75% in the Prior Year Quarter. Overall average day rates were $13,906 in the Current Year Quarter compared with $12,030 in the Prior Year Quarter, an increase of $1,876 per day, or 16%.

In the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, time charter revenues were $24.1 million higher in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Incremental charters in support of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response contributed $27.6 million of additional time charter revenues.

In Africa, time charter revenues were $7.8 million lower in the Current Year Quarter primarily due to vessels mobilizing between geographic regions, fleet dispositions and lower utilization attributable to softer market conditions. Other operating revenues were $1.7 million lower primarily due to reduced third party brokered vessel activity.

In the Middle East, time charter revenues were $5.1 million lower in the Current Year Quarter primarily due to lower utilization attributable to softer market conditions and out-of-service time for one vessel undergoing conversion to standby safety configuration. Other operating revenues were $4.1 million lower primarily due to reduced third party brokered vessel activity.

In the United Kingdom, time charter revenues were $1.1 million lower in the Current Year Quarter primarily due to unfavorable changes in the USD/pound sterling exchange rate.

In Mexico, Central and South America, time charter revenues were $2.3 million lower in the Current Year Quarter primarily due to fleet dispositions. Other operating revenues were $2.3 million lower primarily due to the conclusion of bareboat charters for two vessels that subsequently mobilized to the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.

In Asia, time charter revenues were $3.1 million lower in the Current Year Quarter primarily due to net fleet dispositions. Other operating revenues were $1.2 million higher primarily due to the change in contract status of one vessel from time charter to bareboat.

As of June 30, 2010, the Company had deferred $18.5 million of vessel charter hire scheduled to be paid through the conveyance of a limited net profit interest in developmental oil and gas producing properties owned by a customer. Of this amount, $2.8 million was deferred during the Current Year Quarter. The Company expects to defer an additional $3.5 million of vessel charter hire under this arrangement through August 2010. The customer has provided payout estimates indicating the Company will receive future payments of $10.8 million in 2010 and $11.2 million in 2011. Such payments are contingent upon future production. Production from the properties commenced in April 2010 and the first payment of $0.1 million was received and recognized as revenue in June 2010. The Company will recognize revenues as cash is received or earlier should future payments become determinable.

Operating Revenues – Current Six Months compared with Prior Six Months. Operating revenues decreased by $56.9 million in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months. Time charter revenues decreased by $43.7 million and other operating revenues, including third party brokered vessel activity, bareboat charter revenues and other marine services, decreased by $13.2 million.

The number of days available for charter in the Current Six Months was 24,471 compared with 28,352 in the Prior Six Months, a 3,881 or 14% reduction, due to net fleet dispositions, including the return of leased vessels to lessors. Overall fleet utilization was 74% in the Current Six Months compared with 78% in the Prior Six Months. Overall average day rates were $12,672 in the Current Six Months compared with $12,421 in the Prior Six Months, an increase of $251 per day, or 2%.

In the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, time charter revenues were $11.6 million lower in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months. Time charter revenues from rig moving activities for anchor handling towing supply vessels were $20.3 million lower and time charter revenues for all other vessel classes were lower

primarily due to a 2,388 or 18% reduction in days available as a result of net fleet dispositions. Incremental charters in support of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response contributed $27.6 million of additional time charter revenues.

In Africa, time charter revenues were $16.5 million lower in the Current Six Months primarily due to vessels mobilizing between geographic regions, fleet dispositions and lower utilization attributable to softer market conditions. Other operating revenues were $3.1 million lower primarily due to reduced third party brokered vessel activity.

In the Middle East, time charter revenues were $9.5 million lower in the Current Six Months primarily due to lower utilization attributable to softer market conditions and out-of-service time for one vessel undergoing conversion to standby safety configuration. Other operating revenues were $7.6 million lower primarily due to reduced third party brokered vessel activity.

In Mexico, Central and South America, time charter revenues were $3.0 million lower in the Current Six Months primarily due to fleet dispositions. Other operating revenues were $5.8 million lower primarily due to the conclusion of bareboat charters for two vessels that subsequently mobilized to the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.

In Asia, time charter revenues were $2.9 million lower in the Current Six Months primarily due to net fleet dispositions. Other operating revenues were $1.1 million higher primarily due to the change in contract status of one vessel from time charter to bareboat.

As noted above, as of June 30, 2010, the Company had deferred $18.5 million of vessel charter hire scheduled to be paid through the conveyance of a limited net profit interest in developmental oil and gas producing properties owned by a customer. Of this amount, $7.5 million was deferred during the Current Six Months.

Operating Income – Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter. Excluding the impact of gains on asset dispositions and impairments, operating income increased by $0.8 million. Operating expenses decreased by $1.6 million primarily due to net fleet dispositions. Administrative and general expenses increased by $2.0 million primarily due to the reversal of a doubtful debt reserve in the Prior Year Quarter and higher wage and benefit costs in the Current Year Quarter.

Operating Income – Current Six Months compared with Prior Six Months. Excluding the impact of gains on asset dispositions and impairments, operating income decreased by $53.7 million. The decrease in operating revenues noted above was partially offset by a $6.7 million reduction in operating expenses primarily due to net fleet dispositions. Administrative and general expenses increased by $4.2 million primarily due to higher professional fees and the reversal of a doubtful debt reserve in the Prior Six Months.

Operating Revenues – Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter. Operating revenues were $2.8 million lower primarily due to a change in the contract status of the Oregon Voyager (formerly Seabulk Energy) from time charter to long-term bareboat charter, and a softer spot market in the Current Year Quarter.

Operating Revenues – Current Six Months compared with Prior Six Months. Operating revenues were $9.9 million lower primarily due to the change in the contract status of the Oregon Voyager, more out-of-service time for drydockings and a softer spot market in the Current Six Months.

Operating Income – Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter. Operating income was $0.1 million lower primarily due to the reductions in operating revenues noted above, partially offset by lower operating expenses as a result of the change in the contract status of the Oregon Voyager.

Operating Income – Current Six Months compared with Prior Six Months. Operating income was $3.5 million lower primarily due to the reductions in operating revenues noted above and higher drydocking expenses, partially offset by lower operating expenses primarily as a result of the change in contract status for the Oregon Voyager.

Fleet Count. As of June 30, 2010 and 2009, Marine Transportation Services owned eight U.S.-flag product tankers operating in the domestic coastwise trade.

Operating Results – Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter. Operating revenues increased by $4.4 million primarily due to higher dry cargo pool participation as a result of changes in contract status from chartered-out barges and the addition of new equipment. Excluding the impact of gains on asset dispositions, operating income increased by $0.1 million as the increases in operating revenues were offset by higher wage and benefit costs due to additional manpower.

Operating Results – Current Six Months compared with Prior Six Months. Operating revenues increased by $0.9 million primarily due to higher dry cargo pool participation as described above and increased liquid terminal activity, partially offset by the loss of revenue following the contribution of three towboats to a joint venture during the third quarter of 2009. Excluding the impact of gains on asset dispositions, operating income decreased by $3.5 million primarily due to difficult operating conditions and higher fuel prices during the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009 resulting in higher towing, fleeting and switching costs.

Operating Revenues – Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter. Operating revenues increased by $4.7 million. In the United States, operating revenues were lower primarily due to the termination of several contracts in Air Medical Services, partially offset by incremental work in support of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response. Foreign operating revenues improved as additional aircraft were placed on long-term leases and short-term contracts.

Operating Revenues – Current Six Months compared with Prior Six Months. Operating revenues decreased by $4.4 million. In the United States, operating revenues were lower primarily due to the termination of several contracts in Air Medical Services and a reduction in the number of aircraft and lower flight hours in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico primarily due to decreased drilling activity, partially offset by incremental work in support of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response. Operating revenues in Alaska were higher primarily due to an additional oil and gas contract, partially offset by lower flightseeing revenues as a result of a reduction in tourist activity. Foreign operating revenues improved as additional aircraft were placed on long-term leases and short-term contracts.

Operating Income – Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter. Excluding the impact of gains on asset dispositions and impairments, operating income decreased by $0.6 million primarily due to lower margins in Alaska as a result of higher repair and maintenance costs and a reduction in flightseeing activity levels, and a hurricane insurance recovery in the Prior Year Quarter. These decreases were partially offset by additional aircraft being placed in international leasing activities and higher activity levels in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico in support of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response.

Operating Income – Current Six Months compared with Prior Six Months. Excluding the impact of gains on asset dispositions and impairments, operating income decreased by $4.4 million primarily due to lower operating revenues described above. In the Prior Six Months, operating expenses included a hurricane insurance recovery and general and administrative expenses included the reversal of a bad debt provision for an Alaska-based customer following collection.

Operating Revenues – Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter. Operating revenues increased by $117.2 million primarily due to higher sales volumes of renewable fuels and blendstocks and the financial consolidation of sugar trading activities following the Company’s acquisition of a majority interest in its joint venture in June 2009.

Operating Revenues – Current Six Months compared with Prior Six Months. Operating revenues increased by $195.7 million primarily due to higher sales volumes of renewable fuels and blendstocks and the financial consolidation of sugar trading activities as described above, partially offset by lower sales volumes and lower prices for rice trading activities.

Segment Profit. Segment profit decreased by $3.7 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter and decreased by $10.1 million in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months primarily due to difficult conditions in rice trading markets. The Company has decided to reduce its future rice trading activities and intends to liquidate its rice inventories by the end of the third quarter of 2010.

Equity in Earnings (Losses) of 50% or Less Owned Companies. Equity in losses of 50% or less owned companies in the Current Six Months were primarily due to start-up activities at the Company’s alcohol manufacturing facility joint venture.

Segment profit from Harbor and Offshore Towing Services increased in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter and in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months primarily due to a gain on the sale of an ocean liquid tank barge and higher activity levels in support of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response.

Foreign currency gains (losses), net. Foreign currency losses, net of $6.1 million in the Current Year Quarter and $8.6 million in the Current Six Months were primarily due to the effect of a stronger U.S. dollar on certain of the Company’s foreign currency denominated positions in cash, intercompany notes receivable and marketable securities.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased in the Current Year Quarter and Current Six Months compared with the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Six Months primarily due to the reduction in principal balances following the purchase, maturity or redemption of certain of the Company’s Senior Notes, Convertible Debentures and Title XI Bonds, partially offset by the issuance of the Company’s 7.375% Senior Notes due 2019 in September 2009.

Marketable security gains (losses), net. Marketable security losses, net in the Current Year Quarter and the Current Six Months and marketable security gains, net in the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Six Months were primarily attributable to the Company’s investments in long marketable securities positions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

The Company’s ongoing liquidity requirements arise primarily from working capital needs, meeting its capital commitments and the repayment of debt obligations. In addition, the Company may use its liquidity to fund acquisitions, repurchase shares of SEACOR common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), for treasury or to make other investments. Sources of liquidity are cash balances, marketable securities, construction reserve funds, Title XI reserve funds, cash flows from operations and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. From time to time, the Company may secure additional liquidity through the issuance of debt, shares of Common Stock, preferred stock or a combination thereof.

Operating Activities

Cash flows provided by operating activities decreased by $35.6 million in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months primarily due to increased purchases of marketable securities (as discussed below), partially offset by increases in dividends received from 50% or less owned companies and reductions in working capital funding.

During the Current Six Months, cash used in operating activities included $50.3 million to purchase marketable security long positions and $5.1 million to cover marketable security short positions. During the Current Six Months, cash provided by operating activities included $24.5 million received from the sale of marketable security long positions and $3.7 million received upon entering into marketable security short positions.

During the Prior Six Months, cash used in operating activities included $10.9 million to purchase marketable security long positions and $1.0 million to cover marketable security short positions. During the Prior Six Months, cash provided by operating activities included $26.7 million received from the sale of marketable security long positions and $9.8 million received upon entering into marketable security short positions.

Investing Activities

During the Current Six Months, capital expenditures were $115.0 million. Equipment deliveries included one offshore support vessel, 38 inland river dry cargo barges and three helicopters. During the Prior Six Months, capital expenditures were $77.1 million. Equipment deliveries included two offshore support vessels, one inland river towboat and four helicopters.

During the Current Six Months, proceeds from the disposition of property and equipment were $58.3 million. The Company sold two offshore support vessels, one helicopter, one ocean liquid tank barge and other equipment. In addition, the Company received insurance proceeds related to the nationalization of one of its offshore support vessels and the total constructive loss of another offshore support vessel under construction. During the Prior Six Months, proceeds from the dispositions of property and equipment were $55.5 million. The Company sold 14 offshore support vessels, four inland river dry cargo barges, two harbor tugs and other equipment. In addition, two helicopters were scrapped and one leased helicopter was a total loss after an accident in the North Sea.

As of June 30, 2010, construction reserve funds of $217.6 million were classified as non-current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as the Company has the intent and ability to use the funds to acquire equipment. During the Current Six Months, construction reserve fund account transactions included withdrawals of $55.6 million. During the Prior Six Months, construction reserve fund account transactions included withdrawals of $58.3 million and deposits of $19.4 million.

During the Current Six Months, the Company redeemed all of the outstanding Title XI Bonds on two of the Company’s double-hull product tankers (as noted below) and released $18.8 million of restricted cash into general purpose funds.

During the Current Six Months, the Company made net investments in, and advances to, 50% or less owned companies of $19.9 million and net investments in leases of $17.7 million. During the Prior Six Months, the Company made net investments in, and advances to, 50% or less owned companies of $4.3 million and net investments in leases of $1.9 million.

Financing Activities

During the Prior Six Months, the Company borrowed $25.0 million under its revolving credit facility. The remaining availability under this facility as of June 30, 2010 was $324.5 million, net of issued letters of credit of $0.5 million. In addition, the Company had other outstanding letters of credit totaling $44.1 million with various expiration dates through 2014.

During the Current Six Months, the Company made payments on long-term debt and capital lease obligations of $5.3 million and made net payments on inventory financing arrangements of $19.3 million. During the Prior Six Months, the Company made payments on long-term debt and capital lease obligations of $7.2 million and made net payments on inventory financing arrangements of $22.2 million.

During the Current Six Months the Company redeemed all of the outstanding bonds on two of the Company’s double hull product tankers, in principal amount of $61.9 million, for an aggregate purchase price of $63.0 million, including a make-whole premium.

During the Current Six Months, the Company purchased $2.4 million, in principal amount, of its 5.875% Senior Notes due 2012 for an aggregate purchase price of $2.5 million. During the Prior Six Months, the Company purchased $1.0 million, in principal amount, of its 5.875% Senior Notes due 2012, $37.0 million, in principal amount, of its 7.2% Senior Notes due 2009 and $20.2 million, in principal amount, of its 9.5% Senior Notes due 2013 for an aggregate purchase price of $58.4 million.

SEACOR’s Board of Directors previously approved a securities repurchase plan that authorizes the Company to acquire Common Stock, which may be acquired through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions. During the Current Six Months, the Company acquired for treasury 1,615,900 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $120.0 million. During the Prior Six Months, the Company repurchased $3.8 million, in principal amount, of its 2.875% Convertible Debentures due 2024 for $3.7 million. On February 18, 2010, SEACOR’s Board of Directors increased the repurchase authority up to $250.0 million and, as of June 30, 2010, the remaining authority under the repurchase plan was $130.1 million.

Effect of Exchange Rate Changes on Cash and Cash Equivalents

During the Current Six Months, the effect of exchange rate changes reduced cash and cash equivalents by $9.0 million, primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the euro and pound sterling.

Short and Long-Term Liquidity Requirements

The recent economic conditions have created an unprecedented disruption in the credit and capital markets. To date, the Company’s liquidity has not been materially impacted and management does not expect that it will be materially impacted in the near future. The Company anticipates it will continue to generate positive cash flows from operations and that these cash flows will be adequate to meet the Company’s working capital requirements. In support of the Company’s capital expenditure program or other liquidity requirements, the Company may use its cash balances, sell securities, utilize construction reserve funds, sell additional vessels or other equipment, enter into sale and leaseback transactions for equipment, and borrow under its revolving credit facility, issue debt or a combination thereof.

The Company’s long-term liquidity is dependent upon its ability to generate operating profits sufficient to meet its requirements for working capital, capital expenditures and a reasonable return on shareholders’

investment. The Company believes that earning such operating profits will permit it to maintain its access to favorably priced debt, equity or off-balance sheet financing arrangements. Management will continue to closely monitor the Company’s liquidity and the credit and capital markets.

Contingencies

During 2006 and 2007, Marine Transportation Services (“MTS”) had two of its tankers retrofitted to a double-hull configuration in a foreign shipyard to enable each of them to continue to transport crude oil and petroleum products beyond their OPA 90 mandated retirement dates in 2011. Both vessels operate in the U.S. coastwise trade that, under the Shipping Acts, is restricted to vessels built or rebuilt in the United States. In May 2005, MTS received a determination from the U.S. Coast Guard (“USCG”), which administers the United States build requirements of the Shipping Acts, concluding the retrofit work would not constitute a foreign rebuilding and therefore would not jeopardize the tankers’ eligibility to operate in the U.S. coastwise trade. MTS completed the retrofit work in the foreign shipyard in reliance upon the USCG’s determination, which MTS believes was correct and in accord with the USCG’s long-standing regulations and interpretations. On July 9, 2007, a U.S. shipbuilders trade association and two operators of tankers in the U.S. coastwise trade (“Shipbuilders”) commenced a civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Shipbuilders Council of America, Inc., et al. v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security, et al., No. 1:07cv665 (E.D. Va.) (the “SB Trader Litigation”), in which they sought to have the court set aside the USCG’s determination and direct the USCG to revoke the coastwise license of one of the two retrofitted tankers, the Seabulk Trader. MTS intervened in the action to assist the USCG in defending its determination. On April 24, 2008, the Court issued a Memorandum Opinion granting a motion for summary judgment by Shipbuilders setting aside the USCG’s determination and remanding the matter to the USCG for further proceedings with instructions to revoke the coastwise endorsement of the Seabulk Trader. On April 30, 2008, MTS appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit (the “Court of Appeals”), and the lower court’s decision was stayed pending appeal, subject to certain terms (which MTS has also separately appealed). Those terms require that MTS pay to the plaintiffs 12.5% of the revenue generated by the Seabulk Trader from November 7, 2008 in the event that the Court of Appeals affirms the lower court’s decision to revoke its coastwise endorsement (the “Undertaking”). On July 2, 2008, Shipbuilders commenced a second civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, entitled Shipbuilders Council of America, Inc., et al. v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security, et al., No. 1:08cv680 (E.D. Va.) (the “SB Challenge Litigation”), alleging essentially identical claims as those asserted in the SB Trader Litigation against MTS’s second retrofitted tanker, the Seabulk Challenge. MTS has intervened in the SB Challenge Litigation that was stayed pending the decision of the Court of Appeals in the SB Trader Litigation. In September 2009, the Court of Appeals reversed the District Court, holding that the USCG’s interpretation was correct and that the District Court erred in requiring MTS to provide the Undertaking. On January 19, 2010, the District Court: (i) vacated its April 24, 2008 Order to the extent that it directed the USCG to revoke the coastwise endorsement for the Seabulk Trader; (ii) vacated its November 14, 2008 Order providing for the Undertaking; and (iii) remanded the matter to the USCG for further proceedings to reconsider the decision to grant a coastwise endorsement of the Seabulk Trader consistent with the opinion of the

Court of Appeals. The loss of coastwise eligibility for its two retrofitted tankers could adversely affect the Company’s consolidated financial condition and its results of operations. The aggregate carrying value of the Company’s two retrofitted tankers was $49.5 million as of June 30, 2010 and such tankers contributed operating revenues of $9.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010.

On June 12, 2009, a purported civil class action was filed against SEACOR, Era Group Inc., Era Aviation, Inc., Era Helicopters LLC and two other defendants (collectively the “Defendants”) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, Superior Offshore International, Inc. v. Bristow Group Inc., et al., No. 09-CV-438 (D.Del.). SEACOR acquired Era Group Inc., Era Aviation, Inc., and Era Helicopters LLC in December 2004. The complaint alleges that the Defendants violated federal antitrust laws by conspiring with each other to raise, fix, maintain or stabilize prices for offshore helicopter services in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico during the period January 2001 to December 2005. The purported class of plaintiffs includes all direct purchasers of such services and the relief sought includes compensatory damages and treble damages. The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these claims but believes they are without merit and intends to vigorously defend the action. On September 4, 2009, the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. The District Court has yet to rule on that motion.

Deepwater Horizon and subsequent oil spill. The complaint seeks compensatory, punitive, exemplary, and other damages. The Company believes that this lawsuit brought by class action lawyers targeting emergency responders acting under the direction of the U.S. Coast Guard has no merit and will seek its dismissal.

On July 20, 2010, two individuals purporting to represent a class commenced a civil action in the Civil District Court for the Parish of Orleans in the State of Louisiana, John Wunstell, Jr. and Kelly Blanchard v. BP, et al., No. 2010-7437 (Division K) (the “Wunstell Action”), in which they assert, among other theories, that Mr. Wunstell suffered injuries as a result of his exposure to certain noxious fumes and chemicals in connection with the provision of remediation, containment and response services by O’Brien’s Response Management Inc., a subsidiary of SEACOR. The complaint also seeks to establish a “class-wide court-supervised medical monitoring program” for all individuals “participating in BP’s Deepwater Horizon Vessels of Opportunity Program and/or Horizon Response Program” who allegedly experience injuries similar to Mr. Wunstell. The Company believes this lawsuit has no merit and will seek its dismissal.

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

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For discussion of the Company’s exposure to market risk, refer to Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. There has been no significant change in the Company’s exposure to market risk during the Current Six Months, except as described below.

The Company has entered into and settled various positions in forward currency exchange, option and future contracts with respect to the pound sterling, euro, yen, rupee, Singapore dollar, won, Taiwanese dollar, Thai baht, ringgit, dinar, Mexican peso, renminbi, dirham, Brazilian real and rand. These contracts enable the Company to buy these currencies in the future at fixed exchange rates, which could offset possible consequences of changes in foreign exchange rates with respect to the Company’s business conducted in Europe, Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and Asia. As of June 30, 2010, the outstanding forward currency exchange contract positions translate to a net purchase of foreign currencies with an aggregate U.S. dollar equivalent of $150.0 million. For those forward currency exchange contract positions not designated as fair value hedges, an adverse change of 10% in the underlying foreign currency exchange rates would reduce income by $3.0 million net of tax. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had capital purchase commitments of €178.1 million and had designated €76.0 million ($92.8 million) of its forward currency exchange contracts as fair value hedges. In addition, the Company maintained cash balances of €47.0 million as of June 30, 2010.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

With the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of June 30, 2010. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2010.

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

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

The Company’s operations in the Gulf of Mexico may be adversely impacted by the recent Deepwater Horizon drilling rig accident and resulting oil spill. On April 22, 2010, the Deepwater Horizon, a semi-submersible deepwater drilling rig operating in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, sank after an apparent blowout and fire resulting in a significant flow of hydrocarbons from the BP Macondo well (the “Deepwater Horizon/BP Macondo Well Incident”). The Company’s Offshore Marine Services and Aviation Services segments have extensive operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, which, along with those of certain of its customers, may be adversely impacted by, among other factors:

•

the drilling moratorium issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior directing lessees and operators to cease drilling all new deepwater wells on federal leases in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico for six months, or any future extension of such moratorium;

•

the suspension, stoppage or termination by customers of existing contracts and the demand by customers for new or renewed contracts in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico and other affected regions;

•

unplanned customer suspensions, cancellations, rate reductions or non-renewals of commitments to charter vessels and aviation equipment or failures to finalize commitments to charter vessels and aviation equipment;

•

new or additional government regulations and laws concerning drilling operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico and other regions; and

•

the cost or availability of relevant insurance coverage.

Any one or a combination of these factors could reduce revenues, increase operating costs and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and its results of operations.

The Company could incur liability in connection with providing spill response services. The Company may incur increased legal fees and costs in connection with providing spill and emergency response services, including the Company’s involvement in response to the Deepwater Horizon/BP Macondo Well Incident. Several of the Company’s business segments are currently subject to litigation arising from the Deepwater Horizon/BP Macondo Well Incident and the Company expects it may be named in additional litigation regarding its response services. Although companies are generally exempt in the United States from liability under the Clean Water Act (“CWA”) for their own actions and omissions in providing spill response services, this exemption might not apply if a company were found to have been grossly negligent or to have engaged in willful misconduct, or if it were to have failed to provide these services consistent with applicable regulations and directives under the CWA. In addition, the exemption under the federal CWA would not protect a company against liability for personal injury or wrongful death, or against prosecution under other federal or state laws. Although most of the states within the United States in which the Company provides services have adopted similar exemptions, several states have not. If a court or other applicable authority were to determine that the Company does not benefit from federal or state exemptions from liability in providing emergency response services, the Company could be liable together with the local contractor and the responsible party for any resulting damages, including damages caused by others, subject to the indemnification provisions and other liability terms and conditions negotiated with its domestic clients. In the international market, the Company does not benefit from the spill response liability protection provided by the CWA and, therefore, is subject to the liability terms and conditions negotiated with its international clients.

Negative publicity may adversely impact the Company. Media coverage and public statements that insinuate improper actions by the Company, regardless of their factual accuracy or truthfulness, may result in negative publicity, litigation or governmental investigations by regulators. Addressing negative publicity and any resulting litigation or investigations may distract management, increase costs and divert resources. Negative publicity may have an adverse impact on the Company’s reputation and the morale of its employees, which could adversely affect the Company’s financial position and its results of operations.

Increased domestic and international laws and regulations may adversely impact the Company. Changes in laws or regulations regarding offshore oil and gas exploration and development activities, including the drilling moratorium issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior directing lessees and operators to cease drilling all new deepwater wells on federal leases in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico for six months, or any future extension of such moratorium, may increase the cost or availability of insurance coverage and may influence decisions by customers or other industry participants that could reduce demand for the Company’s services, which would have a negative impact on the Company’s Offshore Marine Services and Aviation Services segments.

A change in oil spill regulation could reduce demand for Environmental Services’ emergency response services. Environmental Services is dependent upon the regulations promulgated under OPA 90, international conventions and, to a lesser extent, local regulations. A change in emergency regulations and/or increased competition from non-profit competitors could decrease demand for Environmental Services’ emergency response services and/or increase costs without a commensurate increase in revenue.
