### Business Strategy
Our business strategy is centered around providing efficient, reliable and safe offshore drilling services to our customers. The business combination with Maersk Drilling created one of the youngest and highest specification fleets in the industry which has been further expanded with the addition of Diamond. Noble has a global scale and diversification and a track record of industry-leading utilization.

Our fleet consists predominately of technologically advanced units, equipped with sophisticated systems and components prepared to execute our customers’ increasingly complicated offshore drilling programs safely and with greater efficiency. We are primarily focused on the ultra-deepwater market and the harsh, and ultra-harsh environment jackup markets, which typically are more technically challenging markets in which to operate.

We emphasize safe operations, environmental stewardship, and superior performance through a structured management system, the employment of qualified and well-trained crews and onshore support staff, the care of our surroundings and the neighboring communities where we operate, and other activities advancing our environmental sustainability, social responsibility, and good governance. We also manage rig operating costs through the implementation and ongoing improvement of innovative systems and processes, which includes the use of data analytics and predictive maintenance technology.

Our organization prioritizes financial discipline, cash flow generation and returning cash to shareholders. Management plans to continue to evaluate our balance sheet and focus on enabling our fleet of floating and jackup rigs to meet the demands of increasingly complex drilling programs required by our customers.
