Tariffs and Trading Relationships
Current report
In April 2025, the U.S. government announced a baseline tariff of 10% on products imported from all countries and an additional individualized reciprocal tariff on the countries with which the United States has the largest trade deficits. Increased tariffs by the United States have led and may continue to lead to the imposition of retaliatory tariffs by foreign jurisdictions. Additionally, the U.S. government has announced and rescinded multiple tariffs on several foreign jurisdictions, which has increased uncertainty regarding the ultimate effect of the tariffs on economic conditions. Current uncertainties about tariffs and their effects on trading relationships may affect costs for and availability of raw materials or contribute to inflation in the markets in which we operate. Although we are continuing to monitor the economic effects of such announcements, as well as opportunities to mitigate their related impacts, costs and other effects associated with the tariffs remain uncertain.
Current report
Our diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 were $0.49, as compared to $0.15 for the corresponding period of the prior year. Our operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 reflect resilient utilization of remotely operated vehicles (“ROVs”) and strong vessel activity predominately in the Gulf of Mexico and West Africa. Compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, consolidated first quarter 2025 operating results doubled on a 13% increase in revenue driven by strong performances from our Subsea Robotics and Offshore Projects Groups (“OPG”) segments.
Current report
The primary focus of our Energy business is to deliver solutions for our customers, utilizing our core competencies, to provide services and products for offshore energy operations and subsea completions. Despite recent macroeconomic uncertainty, including as a result of U.S. tariff policy and retaliatory tariffs, we believe that ongoing global demand for energy will continue to benefit our Energy business. We are also focused on deploying our capabilities to grow our business primarily in integrity management, survey services and mobile robotics.

Fleet utilization was 67% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 as compared to 64% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, we had an increase in ROV days on hire on reduced available working days when compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Our ROV fleet use during the first quarter of 2025 was 62% in drill support and 38% in vessel-based activity, as compared to 66% in drill support and 34% in vessel-based activity in the first quarter of 2024. For each of the periods presented, we had a fleet of 250 work-class ROVs.
Current report
Our Manufactured Products operating results in the first quarter of 2025 decreased on higher revenue as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to an inventory reserve of $10 million recorded in the first quarter of 2025 related to our theme park ride business, partially offset by increased activity in our energy-related businesses.
Current report
Our OPG operating results increased significantly on higher revenue in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, primarily due to the continuation of international projects that commenced in the fourth quarter of 2024 and improved vessel utilization in the Gulf of Mexico, as well as the reduction in drydock costs and the associated loss of vessel days that impacted the first quarter of 2024.
Current report
Our ADTech segment operating results for the first quarter of 2025 decreased on relatively flat revenue as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year primarily due to readiness costs for recent contract awards in our defense subsea technologies business.
Current report
The following table sets forth our unallocated expenses for the periods indicated:
Current report
Our unallocated operating expenses for the first quarter of 2025 were higher as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year primarily due to increased accruals in 2025 for incentive-based compensation along with higher information technology costs.
Current report
We consider our liquidity and capital resources adequate to support our operations, capital commitments and strategic growth initiatives, as well as any opportunistic returns of capital to shareholders. Our material cash commitments consist primarily of obligations for long-term debt, purchase obligations as part of normal operations, and operating leases for land, buildings, vessels and equipment for the support and operation of our business. Our purchase obligations include agreements to purchase goods and services as well as commitments for capital assets used in the normal operations of our business. We are committed to maintaining strong liquidity and believe that our cash position, undrawn Revolving Credit Agreement (as defined below) and long-term debt maturity profile provide us with ample resources and time to address our liquidity needs, including potential future growth opportunities and working capital needs.

Fleet utilization was 69% for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Fleet utilization decreased slightly to 67% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 as compared to 68% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023. We retired five of our conventional work-class ROV systems and replaced them with five upgraded conventional work-class ROV systems during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, resulting in a total of 250 ROVs in our ROV fleet as of both September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Previous report
Our Manufactured Products revenue and operating results increased for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year. Revenue was higher in the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to increased order intake in 2022 and 2023 leading to increased activity in the first nine months of 2024. Operating results were improved in the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year, primarily due to an improved project mix and our ability to leverage our existing cost base.
Previous report
Our OPG operating results decreased on lower revenue for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year, primarily due to changes in project mix in our international markets, vessel crane repair costs and associated vessel downtime in the third quarter of 2024. Our OPG operating results decreased on higher revenue for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, primarily due to changes in the project mix and drydock expenses incurred during the first quarter of 2024.
Previous report
Our IMDS operating results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 decreased on higher revenue as compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year, primarily due to increased revenue and operating results for our integrity management business while our energy businesses were relatively flat. The decline in operating income was the result of a one-time, non-cash charge associated with the divestiture of our Maritime Intelligence division in September 2024.

Previous report
ADTech operating results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, declined on relatively flat revenue when compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year, primarily due to increased project proposal costs and changes in project mix. ADTech operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, declined on higher revenue when compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year. While ADTech experienced increased activity and margins in our defense subsea technologies business, such increase was offset by a reserve taken during the second quarter of 2024 for a contract dispute and lower activity levels in our space systems business.
Previous report
Our Unallocated Expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, decreased as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year primarily due to lower professional fees. Our Unallocated Expenses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, were higher as compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year primarily due to higher information technology costs relating primarily to increased cybersecurity protection costs.
Previous report
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, we received refunds of $23 million, including interest of $1.7 million, which was recorded as a tax benefit under the U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). We classified $20 million of the $23 million total refund as other noncurrent assets on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.
Previous report
Investing activities. In the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we used $63 million in net investing activities, primarily for capital expenditures of $73 million with over half being in our Subsea Robotics segment. Capital expenditures were higher during the first nine months of 2024, as compared to $67 million in the first nine months of 2023, primarily due to increased capital expenditures in our OPG segment to extend our capabilities for new contract awards and in our Manufactured Products segment related to our autonomous mobile robotic technology business. These increased capital expenditures were partially offset by lower capital expenditures in our IMDS segment.
