2Q2015 EBITDA was $66.3 million, an increase of $4.6 million, or 7%, from the comparable 1Q2015 EBITDA of $61.7 million
2Q2015 operating margin was 29%, up from the comparable 1Q2015 operating margin of 25%
2Q2015 avg new gen OSV dayrates were $28,178, up $1,500 from the sequential quarter and up $600 from the prior-year quarter

Forward line-item guidance updated to reflect actual 1H2015 results, latest market conditions and cost savings initiatives
Cash opex and G&A savings due to proactive cost containment measures now approaching $90 million on an annualized basis
The Company recorded net income for the second quarter of 2015 of $19.2 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared to net income of $31.2 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, for the year-ago quarter; and net income of $35.9 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2015. Included in the Company’s first quarter net income was a gain of $33.1 million ($20.7 million after-tax or $0.57 per diluted share) related to the February 2015 sale of three 250EDF class OSVs to the U.S. Navy. Excluding the impact of the gain on sale of assets, net income and diluted EPS for the first quarter of 2015 would have been $15.2 million and $0.42 per share, respectively.

Revenues. Revenues were $136.4 million for the second quarter of 2015, a decrease of $34.7 million, or 20.3%, from $171.1 million for the second quarter of 2014; and an increase of $1.8 million, or 1.3%, from $134.6 million for the first quarter of 2015. The year-over-year decrease in revenues was primarily due to soft market conditions in the GoM, which led to the Company’s decision to stack 18 OSVs on various dates in the fourth quarter of 2014 and thus far in 2015. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company had an average of 17.6 vessels stacked compared to none in the prior-year quarter and 9.5 in the sequential quarter. The year-over-year decrease in revenue was partially offset by $15.2 million in revenue earned from the full or partial-period contribution of ten vessels that were placed in service since March 2014 under the Company’s fifth OSV newbuild program. Operating income was $39.4 million, or 28.9% of revenues, for the second quarter of 2015. Average new generation OSV dayrates for the second quarter of 2015 were $28,178 compared to $27,565 for the same period in 2014 and $26,705 for the first quarter of 2015. New generation OSV utilization was 56.2% for the second quarter of 2015 compared to 85.7% for the year-ago quarter and 64.7% for the sequential quarter. Excluding stacked vessel days, the Company’s new generation OSV effective utilization was 79.9%, 85.7% and 76.6% for the same periods, respectively. The year-over-year decrease in utilization is primarily due to soft market conditions for high-spec OSVs operating in the GoM and the incremental vessels that were stacked.
    Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $57.5 million for the second quarter of 2015, a decrease of $13.9 million, or 19.5%, from $71.4 million for the second quarter of 2014; and a decrease of $3.9 million, or 6.4%, from $61.4 million for the first quarter of 2015. The year-over-year decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to vessels that the Company idled or stacked since late 2014, which resulted in a substantial reduction in mariner headcount. This decrease was partially offset by $9.1 million of operating costs related to the full or partial-period contribution from vessels added to the Company’s fleet since March 2014.
General and Administrative (“G&A”). G&A expenses of $13.1 million for the second quarter of 2015 were 9.6% of revenues compared to $15.5 million, or 9.1% of revenues, for the second quarter of 2014; and $11.9 million, or 8.8% of revenues, for the first quarter of 2015. The year-over-year decrease in G&A expenses was primarily attributable to the valuation of stock-based compensation expense, which was driven lower by the recent decline in the Company’s stock price, lower shoreside personnel expense and, to a lesser extent, a reduction in bad debt reserves.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $26.5 million for the second quarter of 2015, or $1.1 million lower than the prior-year quarter and $1.0 million lower than the sequential quarter. Depreciation increased by $2.6 million over the year-ago quarter primarily due to the contribution of ten new HOSMAX vessels that were placed in service on various dates since March 2014. The depreciation increase was more than offset by a decrease in amortization expense of $3.6 million,

Page 2 of 14


which was primarily due to four vessels sold or classified as held for sale and the deferral of planned drydockings for stacked vessels. Depreciation and amortization expense is expected to continue to increase from current levels as the vessels under the Company’s current newbuild program are placed in service and when any newly constructed vessels undergo their initial 30-month and 60-month recertifications.
Interest Expense. Interest expense was $9.9 million during the second quarter of 2015, or $2.9 million higher than the prior-year quarter. The increase was primarily due to the Company capitalizing a lower percentage of interest compared to the prior-year period. The Company recorded $6.1 million of capitalized construction period interest, or roughly 38% of its total interest costs, for the second quarter of 2015 compared to having capitalized $9.0 million, or roughly 56% of its total interest costs, for the year-ago quarter.
Six Month Results
Revenue for the first six months of 2015 decreased 11.9% to $271.1 million compared to $307.7 million for the same period in 2014. Operating income was $106.3 million, or 39.2% of revenues, for the first six months of 2015 compared to $81.8 million, or 26.6% of revenues, for the prior-year period. Net income for the first six months of 2015 increased $12.5 million to $55.1 million, or $1.52 per diluted share, compared to $42.6 million, or $1.16 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2014. EBITDA for the first six months of 2015 increased 16.1% to $161.1 million compared to $138.7 million for the first six months of 2014. However, the Company recorded a $33.1 million ($20.7 million after tax and $0.57 per diluted share) gain on sale of assets during the first six months of 2015 compared to none in the year-ago period. This gain resulted from the February 2015 sale of three 250EDF class OSVs previously chartered to the U.S. Navy. Excluding the impact of such gain on sale of assets, operating income, net income, diluted EPS and EBITDA for the first six months of 2015 would have been $73.2 million, $34.4 million, $0.95 per share and $128.0 million, respectively. The year-over-year decrease in revenues primarily resulted from soft market conditions in the GoM, which led to the Company’s decision to stack 18 OSVs on various dates in the fourth quarter of 2014 and thus far in 2015. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company had an average of 13.5 vessels stacked compared to none in the prior-year period. The decrease in revenue was partially offset by $37.3 million in revenue earned from the full or partial-period contribution of 13 vessels that were placed in-service under the Company’s fifth OSV newbuild program since December 2013.
Future Outlook
Based on the key assumptions outlined below and in the attached data tables, the following statements reflect management’s current expectations regarding future operating results and certain events. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially given the volatility

Page 3 of 14


inherent in the Company’s industry. Other than as expressly stated, these statements do not include the potential impact of any significant further decline in commodity prices for oil and natural gas; any additional future repositioning voyages; unexpected vessel repairs or shipyard delays; or future capital transactions, such as vessel acquisitions or divestitures, business combinations, additional stock buy-backs, financings or the unannounced expansion of existing newbuild programs that may be commenced after the date of this disclosure. Additional cautionary information concerning forward-looking statements can be found on page 8 of this news release.
Forward Guidance
The Company’s forward guidance for selected operating and financial data, outlined below and in the attached data tables, reflects the current state of depressed commodity prices and planned decreases in the capital spending budgets of its customers in recent months.
Vessel Counts. As of June 30, 2015, excluding one inactive non-core conventional OSV, the Company’s fleet consisted of 60 new generation OSVs and six MPSVs. The forecasted vessel counts presented in this press release reflect (i) the anticipated fiscal 2015 and 2016 OSV and MPSV newbuild deliveries discussed below; (ii) the OSV-to-MPSV conversion of one 300 class HOSMAX vessel that was completed on April 6, 2015; and, for purposes of this guidance, (iii) the assumed sale of the fourth and final vessel to the U.S. Navy on September 30, 2015. With an average of 15.8 new generation OSVs projected to be stacked during 2015, the Company’s active fleet for 2015 is expected to be comprised of an average of 45.0 new generation OSVs and 5.8 MPSVs. With an assumed average of 18.0 new generation OSVs projected to be stacked during 2016, the Company’s active fleet for 2016 is expected to be comprised of an average of 44.0 new generation OSVs and 8.3 MPSVs.
Operating Expenses. Aggregate cash operating expenses are projected to be in the range of $57.5 million to $62.5 million for the third quarter of 2015, and $238.0 million to $248.0 million for the full-year 2015. Not included in these costs is the expected lost revenue related to vessels during approximately 266 days of aggregate commercial-related downtime. Please refer to the attached data table on page 11 of this press release for a summary, by period and by vessel type, of historical and projected data for commercial-related downtime (in days) for each of the quarterly and/or annual periods presented for the fiscal years 2014, 2015 and 2016. Included in the cash opex guidance range above are the anticipated results of several cost containment measures recently initiated by the Company due to prevailing market conditions, including, among other actions, the stacking of 18 new generation OSVs on various dates since October 1, 2014, as well as company-wide headcount reductions and across-the-board pay-cuts for shoreside and vessel personnel. The Company may choose to stack additional vessels as market conditions warrant. The cash operating expense estimate above is exclusive of any additional repositioning expenses the Company may incur in connection with the potential relocation of more of its vessels into international markets or back to the GoM from international markets, and any customer-required

Page 4 of 14


cost-of-sales related to future contract fixtures that are typically recovered through higher dayrates.
G&A Expenses. G&A expenses are expected to be in the approximate range of $12.5 million to $13.5 million for the third quarter of 2015, and $50.0 million to $53.0 million for the full-year 2015. For future periods, the Company expects to remain within its historical range of G&A-to-revenue margins, as well as those of its domestic public OSV peer group.
Other Financial Data. Projected quarterly depreciation, amortization, net interest expense, cash income taxes, cash interest expense and weighted-average diluted shares outstanding for the third quarter of 2015 are $21.1 million, $6.6 million, $10.3 million, $1.5 million, $13.8 million and 36.3 million, respectively. Guidance for depreciation, amortization, net interest expense, cash income taxes and cash interest expense for the full fiscal years 2015 and 2016 is provided on page 12 of this press release. The Company’s annual effective tax rate is expected to be in the range of 37.0% to 38.0% for fiscal years 2015 and 2016.
Capital Expenditures Outlook
Update on OSV Newbuild Program #5. The Company’s fifth OSV newbuild program consists of four 300 class OSVs, five 310 class OSVs, ten 320 class OSVs and five 310 class MPSVs. As of July 29, 2015, the Company has placed 17 vessels in-service under this program. The seven remaining vessels under this 24-vessel domestic newbuild program are currently expected to be delivered in accordance with the table below:

The Company continues to monitor production deficiencies experienced at two of the shipyards and is employing all tools contractually available to improve progress and to ensure all possible efforts are made to secure timely and complete deliveries of the remaining vessels. Production at the other yard remains on-time or ahead of schedule. Based on the updated schedule above of projected vessel in-service dates, the recent 300 class OSV-to-MPSV conversion and the assumed sale of the fourth and final vessel to the U.S. Navy on September 30, 2015, the Company now expects to own 62 new generation OSVs as of December 31, 2015. These vessel additions result in a projected average new generation OSV fleet complement of 60.8 and 62.0 vessels for the fiscal years 2015 and 2016, of which 15.8 and 18.0 vessels are projected to be stacked, respectively. Based on the foregoing, the Company now expects to own and operate six and ten MPSVs as of December 31, 2015, and 2016, respectively. These vessel

Page 5 of 14


additions result in a projected average MPSV fleet complement of 5.8, 8.3 and 10.0 vessels for the fiscal years 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. The aggregate cost of the Company’s fifth OSV newbuild program, excluding construction period interest, is expected to be approximately $1,265.0 million, of which $177.7 million and $54.9 million are expected to be incurred in fiscal years 2015 and 2016, respectively. From the inception of this program through June 30, 2015, the Company has incurred $1,141.7 million, or 90.3%, of total expected project costs, including $61.5 million that was spent during the second quarter of 2015. The Company expects to incur newbuild project costs of $47.5 million during the third quarter of 2015.
Update on Maintenance Capital Expenditures. Please refer to the attached data table on page 11 of this press release for a summary, by period and by vessel type, of historical and projected data for drydock downtime (in days) and maintenance capital expenditures for each of the quarterly and/or annual periods presented for the fiscal years 2014, 2015 and 2016. Maintenance capital expenditures, which are recurring in nature, primarily include regulatory drydocking charges incurred for the recertification of vessels and other vessel capital improvements that extend or maintain a vessel’s economic useful life. The Company expects that its maintenance capital expenditures for its Upstream fleet of vessels will be approximately $22.5 million and $21.1 million for the full fiscal years 2015 and 2016, respectively.
Update on Other Capital Expenditures. Please refer to the attached data tables on page 11 of this press release for a summary, by period, of historical and projected data for other capital expenditures, for each of the quarterly and/or annual periods presented for the fiscal years 2014, 2015 and 2016. Other capital expenditures, which are generally non-recurring, are comprised of the following: (i) commercial-related vessel improvements, such as the addition of cranes, ROVs, helidecks, living quarters and other specialized vessel equipment, or the modification of vessel capacities or capabilities, such as DP upgrades and mid-body extensions, which costs are typically included in and offset, in whole or in part, by higher dayrates charged to customers; and (ii) non-vessel related capital expenditures, including costs related to the Company’s shore-based facilities, leasehold improvements and other corporate expenditures, such as information technology or office furniture and equipment. The Company expects miscellaneous incremental commercial-related vessel improvements and non-vessel capital expenditures to be approximately $63.7 million and $12.0 million, respectively, for the full fiscal years 2015 and 2016, respectively.
Liquidity Outlook
As of June 30, 2015, the Company had a cash balance of $263.4 million and an undrawn $300.0 million revolving credit facility. The Company also expects to receive an additional $38.0 million in cash proceeds from the anticipated sale of the fourth 250EDF class OSV to the U.S. Navy during the third quarter of 2015. Together with cash on-hand, the Company expects to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to cover all of its growth capital expenditures for the remaining seven HOSMAX vessels under

Page 6 of 14


construction, commercial-related capital expenditures, and all of its annually recurring cash debt service, maintenance capital expenditures and cash income taxes through the completion of the newbuild program, as well as discretionary share repurchases from time to time, without ever having to use its currently undrawn revolving credit facility. The Company has three tranches of funded unsecured debt outstanding that mature in fiscal 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively.

Forward-Looking Statements
This Press Release contains “forward-looking statements,” as contemplated by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, in which the Company discusses factors it believes may affect its performance in the future. Forward-looking statements are all statements other than historical facts, such as statements regarding assumptions, expectations, beliefs and projections about future events or conditions. You can generally identify forward-looking statements by the appearance in such a statement of words like “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “remain,” “should,” “will,” or other comparable words or the negative of such words. The accuracy of the Company’s assumptions, expectations, beliefs and projections depends on events or conditions that change over time and are thus susceptible to change based on actual experience, new developments and known and unknown risks. The Company gives no assurance that the forward-looking statements will prove to be correct and does not undertake any duty to update them. The Company’s actual future results might differ from the forward-looking statements made in this Press Release for a variety of reasons, including significant and sustained or additional declines in oil and natural gas prices; a sustained weakening of demand for the Company’s services; unplanned customer suspensions, cancellations, rate reductions or non-renewals of vessel charters, management contracts or failures to finalize commitments to charter or manage vessels; further reductions in capital spending budgets by customers; the inability to accurately predict vessel utilization levels and dayrates; fewer than anticipated deepwater and ultra-deepwater drilling units operating in the GoM or other regions where the Company operates; the effect of inconsistency by the United States government in the pace of issuing drilling permits and plan approvals in the GoM or other drilling regions; the Company’s inability to successfully complete the remainder of its current vessel newbuild program on-time and on-budget, which involves the construction and integration of highly complex vessels and systems; the inability to successfully market the vessels that the Company owns, is constructing or might acquire; the inability of the Company to complete a sale to the U.S. Navy of one additional vessel or the government’s cancellation or non-renewal of the operations and maintenance contracts for vessels; an oil spill or other significant event in the United States or another offshore drilling region that could have a broad impact on deepwater and other offshore energy exploration and production activities, such as the suspension of activities or significant regulatory responses; the imposition of laws or regulations that result in reduced exploration and production activities or that increase the Company’s operating costs or operating requirements; environmental litigation that impacts customer plans or projects; disputes with customers; bureaucratic, administrative or operating barriers that delay vessels in foreign markets from going on-hire or result in contractual penalties or deductions imposed by foreign customers; industry risks; the impact stemming from the reduction of Petrobras’ announced plans for or administrative barriers to exploration and production activities in Brazil; less than expected growth in Mexican offshore activities; age or other restrictions imposed on our vessels by customers; unanticipated difficulty in effectively competing in or operating in international markets; less than anticipated subsea infrastructure and field development demand in the GoM and other markets affecting our MPSVs; the level of fleet additions by the Company and its competitors that could result in vessel over capacity in the markets in which the Company competes; economic and political risks; weather-related risks; the shortage of or the inability to attract and retain qualified personnel, as needed, including vessel personnel for active and newly constructed vessels; any success in unionizing the Company’s U.S. fleet personnel; regulatory risks; the repeal or administrative weakening of the Jones Act or changes in the interpretation of the Jones Act related to the U.S. citizenship qualification; drydocking delays and cost overruns and related risks; vessel accidents, pollution incidents, or other events resulting in lost revenue, fines, penalties or other expenses that are unrecoverable from insurance policies or other third parties; unexpected litigation and insurance expenses; or fluctuations in foreign currency valuations compared to the U.S. dollar and risks associated with expanded foreign operations, such as non-compliance with or the unanticipated effect of tax laws, customs laws, immigration laws, or other legislation that result in higher than anticipated tax rates or other costs or the inability to repatriate foreign-sourced earnings and profits. In addition, the Company’s future results may be impacted by adverse economic conditions, such as inflation, deflation, or lack of liquidity in the capital markets, that may negatively affect it or parties with whom it does business resulting in their non-payment or inability to perform obligations owed to the Company, such as the failure of customers to fulfill their contractual obligations or the failure by individual banks to provide funding under the Company’s credit agreement, if required. Further, the Company can give no assurance regarding when and to what extent it will effect share repurchases. Should one or more of the foregoing risks or uncertainties materialize in a way that negatively impacts the Company, or should the Company’s underlying assumptions prove incorrect, the Company’s actual results may vary materially from those anticipated in its forward-looking statements, and its business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Additional factors that you should consider are set forth in detail in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as well as other filings the Company has made and will make with the Securities and Exchange Commission which, after their filing, can be found on the Company’s website www.hornbeckoffshore.com.

Regulation G Reconciliation

This Press Release also contains references to the non-GAAP financial measures of earnings, or net income, before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA. The Company views EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA primarily as liquidity measures and, therefore, believes that the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to such measure is cash flows provided by operating activities. Reconciliations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to cash flows provided by operating activities are provided in the table below. Management’s opinion regarding the usefulness of EBITDA to investors and a description of the ways in which management uses such measure can be found in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as in Note 10 to the attached data tables.

Represents other income and expenses, including equity in income from investments and foreign currency transaction gains or losses.

2 
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and the three months ended March 31, 2015 the Company had 326, 332 and 337 anti-dilutive stock options, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company had no anti-dilutive stock options. As of June 30, 2015, March 31, 2015, and June 30, 2014, the 1.500% convertible senior notes were not dilutive, as the average price of the Company’s stock was less than the effective conversion price of $68.53 for such notes.

3 
The Company owned 60 new generation OSVs as of June 30, 2015. Excluded from this data is one stacked conventional OSV that the Company considers to be a non-core asset. Also excluded from this data are six MPSVs owned and operated by the Company.

4 
In response to weak market conditions, the Company elected to stack certain of its new generation OSVs on various dates during the fourth quarter of 2014 and thus far in 2015. Active new generation OSVs represent vessels that are immediately available for service during each respective period.

5 
Average utilization rates are average rates based on a 365-day year. Vessels are considered utilized when they are generating revenues.

6 
Effective utilization rate is based on a denominator comprised only of vessel-days available for service by the active fleet, which excludes the impact of stacked vessel days.

7 
Average new generation OSV dayrates represent average revenue per day, which includes charter hire, crewing services, and net brokerage revenues, based on the number of days during the period that the OSVs generated revenues.

8 
Effective dayrate represents the average dayrate multiplied by the utilization rate for the respective period.

9 
Represents revenues from shore-based operations, vessel-management services, including from the O&M contract with the U.S. Navy, and ancillary equipment rentals, including from ROVs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure
The Company discloses and discusses EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure in its public releases, including quarterly earnings releases, investor conference calls and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company defines EBITDA as earnings (net income) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company’s measure of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate EBITDA differently than the Company, which may limit its usefulness as a comparative measure.

The Company views EBITDA primarily as a liquidity measure and, as such, believes that the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to it is cash flows provided by operating activities. Because EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income or loss, cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities, or other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA is widely used by investors and other users of the Company’s financial statements as a supplemental financial measure that, when viewed with GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations, the Company believes provides additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting its ability to service debt, pay deferred taxes and fund drydocking charges and other maintenance capital expenditures. The Company also believes the disclosure of EBITDA helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare its cash flow generating capacity from quarter to quarter and year to year.
EBITDA is also a financial metric used by management (i) as a supplemental internal measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations; (ii) as a significant criteria for annual incentive cash bonuses paid to the Company’s executive officers and other shore-based employees; (iii) to compare to the EBITDA of other companies when evaluating potential acquisitions; and (iv) to assess the Company’s ability to service existing fixed charges and incur additional indebtedness.

In addition, the Company also makes certain adjustments, as applicable, to EBITDA for losses on early extinguishment of debt, stock-based compensation expense and interest income, or Adjusted EBITDA, to internally evaluate its performance based on the computation of ratios used in certain financial covenants of its credit agreements with various lenders. The Company believes that these ratios can be material components of financial covenants and, when applicable, failure to comply

Page 13 of 14


with such covenants could result in the acceleration of indebtedness or the imposition of restrictions on the Company’s financial flexibility.
Set forth below are the material limitations associated with using EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure compared to cash flows provided by operating activities.
EBITDA does not reflect the future capital expenditure requirements that may be necessary to replace the Company’s existing vessels as a result of normal wear and tear,
EBITDA does not reflect the interest, future principal payments and other financing-related charges necessary to service the debt that the Company has incurred in acquiring and constructing its vessels,
EBITDA does not reflect the deferred income taxes that the Company will eventually have to pay once it is no longer in an overall tax net operating loss position, as applicable, and
EBITDA does not reflect changes in the Company’s net working capital position.
Management compensates for the above-described limitations in using EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure by only using EBITDA to supplement the Company’s GAAP results.

11 
Commercial-related Downtime results from commercial-related vessel improvements, such as the addition of cranes, ROVs, helidecks, living quarters and other specialized vessel equipment; the modification of vessel capacities or capabilities, such as DP upgrades and mid-body extensions, which costs are typically included in and offset, in whole or in part, by higher dayrates charged to customers; and the speculative relocation of vessels from one geographic market to another.

12 
The capital expenditure amounts included in this table are actual and anticipated cash outlays before the allocation of construction period interest, as applicable.

13 
As of July 29, 2015, the Company’s inactive fleet of 18 new generation OSVs that were “stacked” was comprised of the following: seven 200 class OSVs and eleven 240 class OSVs.

14 
The “low” and “high” ends of the guidance ranges set forth in this table are not intended to cover unexpected variations from currently anticipated market conditions. These ranges provide only a reasonable deviation from the conditions that are expected to occur.

15 
Represents incremental imputed non-cash OID interest expense required by accounting standards pertaining to the Company’s 1.500% convertible senior notes due 2019.

16 
Projected weighted-average diluted shares do not reflect any potential dilution resulting from the Company’s 1.500% convertible senior notes. Warrants related to the Company’s 1.500% convertible senior notes become dilutive when the average price of the Company’s stock exceeds the effective conversion price for such notes of $68.53.
