(a) | Note: Had we been a stand-alone company for the full year 2014, and had the same level of debt throughout the year as we did on December 31, 2014, of approximately $6.4 billion, we would have incurred $314 million of pre-tax interest expense, on a pro-forma basis, for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to the $72 million pre-tax interest expense reported on our statement of operations for the year then ended. Therefore, the insufficient coverage on a pro-forma basis would have been approximately $2,667 million. |
(b) | The six months ended June 30, 2017 amount includes unusual and infrequent items consisting of $110 million of non-cash derivative gains on outstanding hedges, $21 million of gains from asset divestitures, $4 million of net gains on the early extinguishment of debt and $9 million of other unusual and infrequent charges. Excluding these items, our earnings before fixed charges for the six months ended June 30, 2017 would have been approximately $48 million. Therefore, the insufficient coverage would have been approximately $122 million. The six months ended June 30, 2016 amount includes unusual and infrequent items consisting of $218 million of non-cash derivative losses on outstanding hedges, $133 million of net gains on the early extinguishment of debt, $31 million of gains from asset divestitures and $27 million of other unusual and infrequent charges. Excluding these items, our loss before fixed charges for the six months ended June 30, 2016 would have been approximately $37 million. Therefore, the insufficient coverage would have been approximately $189 million. |
(c) | The year ended December 31, 2016 amount includes unusual and infrequent items consisting of $805 million of net gains on the early extinguishment of debt, $283 million of non-cash derivative losses on outstanding hedges, $30 million of gains from asset divestitures and $12 million deferred debt issuance cost write-off and $7 million, net, of other unusual and infrequent charges. Excluding these items, our loss before fixed charges for the year ended December 31, 2016 would have been approximately $0. Therefore, the insufficient coverage would have been approximately $334 million. |
The year ended December 31, 2015 amount includes unusual and infrequent items consisting of $4.9 billion of asset impairments, $71 million of write-down of certain assets, $67 million of early retirement and severance costs, $11 million of rig termination and other costs and $8 million of debt transactions costs, partially offset by $52 million of non-cash derivative gains. Excluding these items, our loss before fixed charges for the year ended December 31, 2015 would have been approximately $189 million. Therefore, the insufficient coverage would have been approximately $528 million.
The December 31, 2014 amount includes non-cash, unusual and infrequent items consisting of $3.4 billion of asset impairments, $52 million of rig termination and other price-related costs, and $55 million of Spin-off and transition related costs. Excluding these items, our earnings before fixed charges for the year ended December 31, 2014 would have been approximately $1.2 billion, and the ratio of earnings to fixed charges would have been 14.7.
