These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form *10*-K for the year ended *December 31, 2024*, filed with the SEC on *February 27, 2025.* In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial information reflects all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly state our results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented and are *not* indicative of the results that *may* be expected for a full year.

Our financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis. Under this basis of presentation, our financial statements consolidate all subsidiaries (entities in which we have a controlling financial interest), and all intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. We use the equity method to account for equity investments over which we exercise significant influence but do *not* exercise control and are *not* the primary beneficiary.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

**Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements**

We identified a misclassification of the effects of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalent balances on our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The effects of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalent balances were *not* previously presented as a separate item in the reconciliation of the net change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in our Statements of Cash Flows, but rather included as a component of net cash provided by operating activities. We assessed the impact of the misclassification and determined it was *not* material to any previously issued financial statements.

Accordingly, we have elected to revise our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to reflect the effects of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalent balances for the years ended *December 31, 2024, December 31, 2023* and *December 31, 2022* and our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the interim periods ended *March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, September 30, 2024, March 31, 2025* and *June 30, 2025.*

This revision increased cash provided by operating activities with a corresponding offset amount reflected in the effects of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash by $1.0 million for the *twelve* months ended *December 31, 2022,* $2.3 million for the *three* months ended *March 31, 2024,* $3.6 million for the *six* months ended *June 30, 2024* and $8.6 million for the *twelve* months ended *December 31, 2024.*

This revision decreased cash provided by operating activities with a corresponding offset amount reflected in the effects of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash by $0.5 million for the *twelve* months ended *December 31, 2023,* $0.1 million for the *nine* months ended *September 30, 2024,* $5.6 million for the *three* months ended *March 31, 2025* and $17.3 million for the *six* months ended *June 30, 2025.*

The revision had *no* impact on our previously reported consolidated net income; comprehensive income (loss); financial position; net change in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash; or total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as previously reported on our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

**(*2*)** **RECENTLY ISSUED OR ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS**

In *November 2023,* the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) *2023*-*07,* Segment Reporting, which requires disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis including significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after *December 15, 2023* and interim periods beginning after *December 15, 2024.* We adopted this standard on *December 31, 2024* and we have included the required disclosures in Note (*13*) - "Segment and Geographical Distribution of Operations" for the *three* and *nine* months ending *September 30, 2025* and *2024,* respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *8*

In *December 2023,* the FASB issued ASU *2023*-*09,* Income Taxes, which requires a greater disaggregation of information in the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid by jurisdiction to improve the transparency of the income tax disclosures. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after *December 15, 2024.* We are currently evaluating the effect of the standard on our disclosures in our consolidated financial statements.

In *November 2024,* the FASB issued ASU *2024*-*03,* Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures to improve disclosures about certain types of expenses including purchases of inventory, employee compensation and depreciation, depletion and amortization included in commonly presented captions in the Consolidation Statements of Operations. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after *December 15, 2026* and interim periods beginning after *December 15, 2027.* We are currently evaluating the effect of the standard on our disclosures in our consolidated financial statements.

In *September 2025,* the FASB issued ASU *2025*-*06,* Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software to modernize the accounting for software costs to better align the accounting with how software is currently developed. Under this standard, software costs are capitalized once management (i) has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the intended function. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after *December 15, 2027.* We are currently evaluating the effect of the standard on our consolidated financial statements.

**(*3*)** **ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES**

Expected credit losses are recognized on the initial recognition of our trade accounts receivable and contract assets. In each subsequent reporting period, even if a loss has *not* yet been incurred, credit losses are recognized based on the history of credit losses and current conditions, as well as reasonable and supportable forecasts affecting collectability. We utilize a model to estimate the expected credit losses applicable to our trade accounts receivable and contract assets. This model considers our historical performance and the economic environment, as well as the credit risk and its expected development for each segmented group of customers that share similar risk characteristics. It is our practice to write off receivables when all legal options for collection have been exhausted.

Activity in the allowance for credit losses for the *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025* is as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | *Trade* |
| <u>(In Thousands)</u> | *and Other* |
|  | *Receivables* |
| Balance at January 1, 2025 | $3184 |
| Current period credit for expected credit losses | (145) |
| Balance at September 30, 2025 | $3039 |

**(*4*)** **REVENUE RECOGNITION**

See Note (*13*) - "Segment and Geographic Distribution of Operations" for revenue by segment and in total for the worldwide fleet.

**Contract Balances**

At *September 30, 2025*, we had $0.1 million of deferred mobilization costs included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets and $0.8 million of deferred mobilization costs included in Other assets. At *December 31, 2024*, we had $1.1 million of deferred mobilization costs included with Prepaid expenses and other current assets and $0.6 million of deferred mobilization costs included in Other assets.

At *September 30, 2025*, we had $3.9 million of deferred mobilization revenue included within Accrued expenses and $3.6 million of deferred mobilization revenue included in Other liabilities that will be recognized from *2025* through *2027.* At *December 31, 2024*, we have $9.4 million of deferred mobilization revenue included within Accrued expenses and $2.1 million of deferred mobilization revenue included in Other liabilities.

During the *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025*, the amount of revenue recognized that was included in deferred mobilization revenue at the beginning of the period was $8.6 million. The amount of revenue recognized in the prior year period was immaterial.

No* warrants or restricted stock units, whether in the money or out of the money, are included in our earnings per share calculations if the effect of such inclusion is antidilutive.

**Common Stock Repurchases**

On *February 27, 2025,* our Board of Directors (Board) approved a $90.3 million share repurchase program, and then on *August 1, 2025,* our Board approved a new $500.0 million share repurchase program. During the *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025*, we repurchased and retired 2,290,204 shares for approximately $90.0 million, excluding commissions and a 1% excise tax. No shares were repurchased during the *three* months ended *September 30, 2025.* During *2024,* our Board approved several share repurchase programs aggregating $90.7 million.

**(*6*)** **INCOME TAXES** 

Income tax rates and taxation systems in the jurisdictions where we and our subsidiaries conduct business vary and our subsidiaries are frequently subjected to minimum taxation regimes. In some jurisdictions, tax liabilities are based on gross revenues, statutory deemed profits or other factors, rather than on net income. We use a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate taxes for interim periods instead of applying the annual effective tax rate to an estimate of the full fiscal year due to the level of volatility and unpredictability of earnings in our industry, both overall and by jurisdiction.

On *July 4, 2025,* President Trump signed into law the legislation formally titled "An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. *14"* (Act) and commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). The impact of the OBBBA on our consolidated financial statements is the modification to the Adjusted Taxable Income (ATI) for purposes of calculating the new limitation on interest expense. We do *not* expect this to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has agreed to a *two*-pillar approach to global taxation focusing on global profit allocation, referred to as Pillar One, and a *15.0%* global minimum corporate tax rate (Pillar Two). Many countries, including jurisdictions in which we do business, are enacting changes to their tax laws to adopt certain portions of the OECD's proposals. Pillar Two tax law changes are effective for Tidewater as of *January 1, 2025.*

For the *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025*, income tax expense reflects tax liabilities in various jurisdictions based on either revenue (deemed profit regimes) or pre-tax profits and the impact of Pillar Two. The total expense accrual related to Pillar *2* is approximately $11.0 million as of *September 30, 2025*.

The tax liabilities for uncertain tax positions are primarily attributable to permanent establishment considerations related to foreign jurisdictions, subpart F income inclusions and withholding taxes on foreign services. Penalties and interest related to income tax liabilities are included in income tax expense. Income tax payable is included in other current liabilities.

As of *December 31, 2024*, our balance sheet reflected approximately $533.5 million of net deferred tax assets prior to a valuation allowance of $533.0 million. As of *September 30, 2025*, we had net deferred tax assets of approximately $524.0 million prior to a valuation allowance of $511.9 million. The net deferred tax assets as of *September 30, 2025* includes $51.2 million of deferred tax assets from the *2022* Swire Pacific Offshore acquisition offset by a valuation allowance of $51.2 million. Our ability to utilize U.S. net operating losses (NOLs) in the current period was primarily driven by activity in international jurisdictions that generated income subject to U.S. tax. Our ability to utilize U.S. NOLs in future periods is likely to be impacted by the extent to which we will generate such income in future periods which will be influenced by a variety of factors including the jurisdictions in which our vessels operate and the extent to which we are impacted by various global minimum tax initiatives that are adopted in those jurisdictions.

During the *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025*, we generated a deferred tax benefit of $16.2 million, primarily related to a $27.0 million reduction of our valuation allowance due to changes in the balance of relevant positive and negative evidence when assessing the realization of our U.S. NOLs. Considering all available evidence, including the *three*-year cumulative financial taxable income position, our future taxable income evidence and the domestic tax impact given our current operating structure, we determined that sufficient positive evidence existed to conclude that this portion of the valuation allowance on the U.S. NOL deferred tax asset was *no* longer needed. We intend to maintain a valuation allowance on a substantial portion of our deferred tax assets until sufficient evidence supports a reversal. This tax benefit is included within Other assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of *September 30, 2025* and as a component of tax expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025*.

Management assesses all available positive and negative evidence to permit use of existing deferred tax assets.

With limited exceptions, we are *no* longer subject to tax audits by U.S. federal, state, local or foreign taxing authorities for years prior to *December 2020.* We are subject to ongoing examinations by various foreign tax authorities and do *not* believe the results of these examinations will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

**(*7*)** **EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS** 

**U.S. Defined Benefit Pension Plan**

We sponsor a defined benefit pension plan (pension plan) that was frozen in *2010* covering certain U.S. employees. Actuarial valuations are performed annually. We contributed $0.9 million and zero to the pension plan during the *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025* and *2024*, respectively, and expect to contribute an additional $0.1 million to the pension plan during the remainder of *2025.*

**Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan**

We support a non-contributory and non-qualified defined benefit supplemental executive retirement plan (supplemental plan) that was closed to new participants in *2010.* We contributed $0.9 million and $1.1 million to the supplemental plan for the *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025* and *2024*, respectively, and expect to contribute $0.3 million during the remainder of *2025.* Our estimated obligations under the supplemental plan were $14.3 million and $16.3 million at *September 30, 2025* and *December 31, 2024*, respectively, and are included in "accrued expenses" and "other liabilities" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

**Net Periodic Benefit Costs**

The net periodic benefit cost for our pension plans and supplemental plan (collectively, Pension Benefits) is comprised of the following components:

On *July 7, 2025,* all amounts outstanding, including accrued interest, under the Senior Secured Term Loan, the 10.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due *July 2028* and the 8.50% Senior Secured Notes due *November 2026 (*Extinguished Debt) were redeemed and paid in full in conjunction with the issuance of the *2030* Notes described below. All collateral, security and guarantees related to the Extinguished Debt were released in conjunction with the repayment. In addition, the holders of the Senior Unsecured Notes and the *2026* Notes received redemption premiums totaling $15.0 million and $4.5 million, respectively. We also wrote off approximately $7.5 million in discount and debt issue costs related to the Extinguished Debt, resulting in a $27.1 million loss on early extinguishment of debt which is recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the *three* and *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025.*

***9.125%* Senior Notes due *July 2030***

On *July 7, 2025,* we, certain of our subsidiaries (Guarantors), and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (Trustee), entered into an indenture (Indenture), pursuant to which we issued $650.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 9.125% Senior Notes due *2030* (*2030* Notes). The *2030* Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Guarantors.

The *2030* Notes mature on *July 15, 2030.* Interest on the 2030 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on each *January 15* and *July 15,* commencing *January 15, 2026,* to holders of record on the *January 1* and *July 1* immediately preceding the related interest payment date, at a rate of 9.125% per annum.

At any time prior to *July 15, 2027,* we *may* redeem the *2030* Notes, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the *2030* Notes redeemed, plus an applicable make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any. At any time on or after *July 15, 2027,* we *may* redeem the *2030* Notes, at the redemption price of 104.563%, which declines to 100% on or after *July 15, 2029,* plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit our ability, and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to: (i) incur, assume or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred stock; (ii) create liens to secure indebtedness; (iii) pay distributions on equity interests, repurchase equity securities, make investments or redeem subordinated indebtedness; (iv) restrict distributions, loans or other asset transfers; (v) consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell substantially all of our assets to, another person; (vi) sell or otherwise dispose of assets, including equity interests in subsidiaries; (vii) designate a subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (as defined in the Indenture); and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates.

 **Revolving Credit Facility**

On *July 7, 2025,* we and the Guarantors entered into a credit agreement with DNB Bank ASA, New York Branch, as facility agent and security trustee, and a syndicate of lenders providing for a $250.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (Revolving Credit Facility). The Revolving Credit Facility matures on *April 15, 2030,* and replaced our previous $25.0 million credit facility. Amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to an interest rate per annum equal to (i) for Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (Term SOFR) advances, the aggregate of (a) the Term SOFR for the relevant interest period, plus (b) an applicable margin ranging from 250 to 350 basis points, depending on our total net leverage ratio (Margin); or (ii) for Alternate Base Rate (ABR) advances, the aggregate of (a) the ABR Rate, which equals the highest of (*1*) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (*2*) the Federal Funds Rate in effect on such day plus 0.50%, (*3*) Term SOFR plus 1.00%, and (*4*) 1.00%. The Revolving Credit Facility also requires payment of quarterly customary unused commitment fees and if utilized, certain letter of credit and fronting fees.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, representations and warranties, and events of default, along with the following *three* financial covenants: (i) a minimum liquidity test that the sum of consolidated cash and available commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility shall *not* be less than the greater of $20.0 million or 10% of net interest-bearing debt as defined in the agreement; (ii) the ratio of net interest bearing debt to consolidated earnings before depreciation and amortization, interest and other debt costs, net and income tax expense shall be equal to or less than 3 to *1;* and (iii) the aggregate fair market value of the collateral vessels divided by the total outstanding debt shall be at least 2.5 to *1.* We are currently in compliance with these financial covenants.

**Vessel Facility Agreements**

We signed agreements for the construction of *ten* new vessels, all of which have been delivered as of *September 30, 2025*. We entered into Facility Agreements to finance a portion of the construction and delivery costs for approximately EUR 24.9 million ($26.7 million). Each of the *ten* Facility Agreements bear interest at fixed rates ranging from 2.7% to 6.3% and are payable in *ten* equal principal semi-annual installments, with the *first* installments commencing *six* months following delivery of the respective vessels. The Facility Agreements are secured by the vessels, guaranteed by Tidewater as parent guarantor and contain *no* financial covenants.

**Extinguished Debt**

*<u>Senior Secured Term Loan</u>*

On *June 30, 2023,* Tidewater entered into a Credit Agreement, by and among Tidewater, as parent guarantor, TDW International Vessels (Unrestricted), LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tidewater (TDW International), as borrower, certain other unrestricted subsidiaries of Tidewater, as other security parties, the lenders party thereto, DNB Bank ASA, New York Branch (DNB Bank), as facility agent and DNB Markets, Inc. (DNB Markets), as bookrunner and mandated lead arranger (Senior Secured Term Loan), which was fully drawn on *July 5, 2023,* in a single advance of $325.0 million.

The Senior Secured Term Loan was composed of a Tranche A loan and a Tranche B loan, each maturing on *July 5, 2026.* The Tranche A loan bore interest at Term SOFR plus 5% initially, increasing to 8% over the term. The Tranche B loan bore interest at Term SOFR plus 3.75%. The security for the Senior Secured Term Loan included mortgages over the vessels we acquired from Solstad Offshore ASA (Solstad) on *July 5, 2023,* along with associated assignments of insurances and assignments of earnings in respect of such vessels, a pledge of *100%* of the equity interests in TDW International, a pledge of *66%* of the equity interests in TDW International Unrestricted, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the company, and negative pledges over certain vessels indirectly owned by TDW International Unrestricted, Inc. The obligations of the borrower were guaranteed by Tidewater, subject to a cap equal to *50%* of the aggregate purchase price for the Solstad vessels.

<u>*10.375%* Senior Unsecured Notes due *July 2028*</u>

On *July 3, 2023,* Tidewater completed an offering of $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured bonds in the Nordic bond market (Senior Unsecured Notes). The bonds were privately placed outside the U.S. pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of *1933,* as amended.

The Senior Unsecured Notes would have matured on *July 3, 2028* and accrued interest at a rate of 10.375% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears on *January 3* and *July 3* of each year, beginning *January 3, 2024.* Prepayment of the Senior Unsecured Notes prior to *July 3, 2025* was subject to a prepayment premium starting at 6.0% that declined over time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *14*

<u>*8.5%* Senior Secured Notes due *November 2026*</u>

The 8.5% Senior Secured Notes due *November 2026 (2026* Notes) totaling $175.0 million in aggregate principal amount, were issued pursuant to the Note Terms, dated as of *November 15, 2021 (*Note Terms), among us and Nordic Trustee AS, as Trustee and Security Agent. Repayment of the *2026* Notes was guaranteed by certain wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries named as guarantors therein (*2026* Guarantors).

The *2026* Notes were secured by: (i) mortgages over the vessels owned by the *2026* Guarantors, the equipment part of such vessels, and related rights to insurance on all of the foregoing; (ii) our intercompany claims of the *2026* Guarantors against a Restricted Group Company (defined as Tidewater, Tidewater Marine International, Inc. (TMII) and the *2026* Guarantors); (iii) bank accounts that contain vessel collateral proceeds or the periodic deposits to the debt service reserve account; (iv) collateral assignments of the rights of the *2026* Guarantors under certain long term charter contracts now existing or hereafter arising; and (v) all of the equity interests of the *2026* Guarantors and 66% of the equity interests of TMII.

The *2026* Notes would have matured on *November 16, 2026* and accrued interest at a rate of 8.5% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears in *May* and *November* of each year. Prepayment of the *2026* Notes after *May 16, 2025* was subject to a 2.55% prepayment premium that stepped down by 0.85% at each *six*-month interval thereafter.

**(*9*)** **COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

**Currency Devaluation and Fluctuation Risk** 

Due to our international operations, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations against the U.S. dollar. For some of our international contracts, a portion of the revenue and local expenses are incurred in local currencies with the result that we are at risk for changes in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies. To minimize the financial impact of these items, we attempt to contract a significant majority of our services in U.S. dollars. In addition, we attempt to minimize the financial impact of these risks by matching the currency of our operating costs with the currency of our revenue streams when considered appropriate. We continually monitor the currency exchange risks associated with all contracts *not* denominated in U.S. dollars. In recent years, laws impacting our operations in certain African countries require our customers to pay us onshore in local currency rather than offshore in U.S. dollars, subjecting us to heightened currency risk and restrictions on the repatriation of cash. As a result, we have accumulated cash in these countries. We continue to take steps to mitigate this additional foreign currency and repatriation risk with a focus on reducing cash balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Despite our efforts to mitigate currency risk, we *may* report significant realized and unrealized currency-related losses in our statements of operations. During the *nine* months ending *September 30, 2025,* we entered into derivative contracts to assist us in managing our foreign currency risk. See Note (*10*) - "Fair Value Measurements" and Note (*12*) - "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" for activity and disclosure related to our foreign currency derivative contracts.

**Legal Proceedings**

In *2009,* on behalf of the Venezuelan government, Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA), the national oil company of Venezuela, took possession of our assets and operations in Venezuela. In connection with this expropriation, we fully wrote-down our Venezuelan assets and initiated international arbitration. In *2019,* we converted our final international award into a U.S. federal court judgement, which we perfected pursuant to a writ of attachment against the shares held by PDVSA in PDV Holding, Inc. (PDVH), the parent company of CITGO Petroleum Corporation. The Delaware District Court (Court) ordered a public sale of the PDVH shares to satisfy the various judgments against Venezuela in *Crystallex International Corp. v. Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela*, *No. 17*-mc-*151*-LPS (D. Del.). On *July 2, 2025,* the court appointed Special Master filed its final recommendation for the winning bid in the sale, which included listing the Tidewater subsidiaries holding judgment as the *second* most senior creditors. The Court appointed Special Master has recommended a purchaser in the sale, and the Court held hearings in *September* and *October 2025* to determine whether to adopt the Special Master's recommendation. A Sale Order by the Court is expected before the end of *2025.* Our judgment, including interest, was approximately $78.6 million as of *September 30, 2025*.

The approval and closing of any sale of the PDVH shares and the collection of our judgement, if at all, are highly uncertain and present significant practical and legal challenges, including, without limitation, OFAC approval and claims filed by other creditors of Venezuela. We can provide *no* assurances regarding the timing or ultimate outcome of this case. As of *September 30, 2025*, *no* amount had been recorded in our financial statements related to this gain contingency.

In addition to the foregoing, we are named defendants or parties in certain lawsuits, claims or proceedings incidental to our business and involved from time to time as parties to governmental investigations or proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and the amount of any liability or gain that could arise with respect to such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted accurately, we do *not* expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows.

**(*10*)** **FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS**

**Other Financial Instruments**

Our primary financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables and trade payables with book values that are considered to be representative of their respective fair values. The carrying value for cash equivalents is considered to be representative of its fair value due to the short duration and conservative nature of the cash equivalent investment portfolio.

In the *second* quarter of *2022,* we agreed with PEMEX, the Mexican national oil company, to exchange $8.6 million in accounts receivable for an equal face amount of seven-year 8.75% PEMEX corporate bonds (PEMEX Note). We sold approximately $0.6 million of the PEMEX Notes during the *first* half of *2025* and $8.0 million of the PEMEX Notes during *2024* for their approximate book value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *16*

------

We periodically enter into derivative contracts to manage our exposure to foreign currency risk. These derivative contracts, which are placed with major financial institutions, generally take the form of forward contracts with a duration of less than *12* months. We report derivative instruments on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. We generally do *not* designate our derivative instruments as hedges for accounting purposes, therefore, any gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value of outstanding derivative financial instruments and from the settlement of derivative financial instruments are recognized in earnings and included as a component of foreign exchange gains (losses) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We held derivative instruments related to foreign exchange contracts recorded as current liabilities, which were measured at their approximate fair value of $2.6 million (Level *2*) as of *September 30, 2025*. See Note (*12*) - "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" for activity and disclosure related to our foreign currency derivative contracts.

**(*11*)** **PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENT, ACCRUED EXPENSES, OTHER CURRENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER LIABILITIES**

As of *September 30, 2025*, our property and equipment consisted primarily of 209 owned vessels located around the world. As of *December 31, 2024*, our property and equipment consisted primarily of 211 owned vessels. During the *nine* months ending *September 30, 2025*, we sold 10 vessels and other assets for approximately $12.3 million in proceeds and recognized a net gain of $8.6 million on the dispositions. During the *nine* months ending *September 30, 2024,* we sold four vessels and other assets for approximately $14.9 million in proceeds and recognized a net $13.1 million gain on the dispositions.

During the *three* months ending *September 30, 2025,* we exercised our purchase option under a bareboat charter agreement to acquire a vessel for $4.9 million. Additionally, we gave notice of our intent to acquire another vessel currently under a bareboat charter agreement. As a result, we classified the bareboat charter agreement as a finance lease valued at $19.9 million. The right of use asset is included in Other assets and the finance lease liability is included in Other current liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as at *September 30, 2025.*

**(*12*)** **DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES**

In the *second* and *third* quarter of *2025,* we entered into foreign currency contracts to sell Euros at future defined dates and at fixed exchange rates, to limit our exposure to losses related to the revaluation of non-USD cash balances held in certain African currencies that are marked to the Euro. We did *not* designate these contracts as hedges for accounting purposes.

We recognized realized and unrealized (gains) losses on derivative instruments *not* designated as hedging instruments of ($0.4) million and $2.9 million for the *three* and *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025*, respectively. We held *no* derivative instruments during *2024.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *19*

**(*13*)** **SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION OF OPERATIONS**

Each of our five operating segments is led by senior management reporting to our Chief Executive Officer, the chief operating decision maker (CODM). Our operating segments comprise the structure used by our CODM to make key operating decisions and assess performance. Discrete financial information is available for each of the segments, and our CODM uses the results of each of the operating segments for resource allocation and performance evaluation. Our CODM evaluates the segments' operating performance based on segment operating income. Segment operating income is defined as segment revenues less segment costs and expenses. The CODM primarily considers segment operating income for evaluating performance of each segment and making decisions about allocating capital and other resources to each segment.

The following tables provide a comparison of revenues, vessel operating profit, depreciation and amortization, additions to properties and equipment and assets by segment and in total for the *three* and *nine* months ended *September 30, 2025* and *2024*. Vessel operating profit is calculated as vessel revenues less vessel operating costs, segment depreciation expenses, and segment general and administrative costs. Vessel revenues and operating costs relate to our owned and operated vessels while other operating revenues relate to the activities of our other miscellaneous marine-related businesses.

**EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND CURRENT BUSINESS OUTLOOK**

**Tidewater**

We are one of the most experienced international operators in the offshore energy industry with a history spanning over 65 years. Our vessels and associated services support all phases of offshore crude oil and natural gas (also referred to as oil and gas) exploration activities, field development, production and maintenance, as well as windfarm development and maintenance. Our services include towing of, and anchor handling for, mobile offshore drilling units; transporting supplies and personnel necessary to sustain drilling, workovers, production activities, supporting field abandonment, dismantlement and restoration activities; offshore construction and seismic and subsea support; geotechnical survey support for windfarm construction; and a variety of other specialized services such as pipe and cable laying. In addition, we have one of the broadest geographic operating footprints in the offshore vessel industry. Our global operating footprint allows us to react quickly to changing local market conditions and to be responsive to the changing requirements of the many customers with which we believe we have strong relationships.

At September 30, 2025, we owned 209 vessels with an average age of 13.0 years available to serve the global offshore energy industry.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 25

**MD&A Objective and Principal Factors That Drive Our Results, Cash Flows and Liquidity** 

Our MD&A is designed to provide information about our financial condition and results of operations from management's perspective.

Our revenues, net earnings and cash flows from operations are largely dependent upon the activity level of our offshore marine vessel fleet. Our business activity is largely dependent on the level of exploration, field development and production activity of our customers. Our customers' business activity, in turn, is dependent on current and expected crude oil and natural gas prices, which fluctuate depending on expected future levels of supply and demand for crude oil and natural gas, and on estimates of the cost to find, develop and produce crude oil and natural gas reserves. Our objective throughout the MD&A is to discuss how these factors affected our historical results and where applicable, how we expect these factors to impact our future results and future liquidity.

Our revenues in all segments are driven primarily by our active fleet size, active vessel utilization and day rates. Because a sizeable portion of our operating and depreciation costs do not change proportionally with changes in revenue, our operating profit is largely dependent on revenue levels.

Operating costs consist primarily of crew costs; repair and maintenance costs; insurance costs; fuel, lube oil and supplies costs; and other vessel operating costs. Fleet size, fleet composition, geographic areas of operation, supply and demand for marine personnel, and local labor requirements are the major factors impacting overall crew costs in all segments. In addition, our newer, more technologically sophisticated vessels generally require a greater number of specially trained, more highly compensated fleet personnel than our older, smaller and less sophisticated vessels. Crew costs may increase if competition for skilled personnel intensifies.

Costs related to the recertification of vessels are deferred and amortized over 30 months on a straight-line basis. Maintenance costs incurred at the time of the recertification drydocking not related to the recertification of the vessel are expensed as incurred. Costs related to vessel improvements that either extend the vessel's useful life or increase the vessel's functionality are capitalized and depreciated.

Insurance costs are dependent on a variety of factors, including our safety record and pricing in the insurance markets, and can fluctuate over time. Our vessels are generally insured for up to their estimated fair market value in order to cover damage or loss. We also purchase coverage for potential liabilities stemming from third-party losses and cyber security breaches with limits that we believe are reasonable for our business and operations, but do not generally purchase business interruption insurance or similar coverage. During the past three years, we have not incurred any material costs, fines or penalties due to a direct or third-party vendor cybersecurity breach. Insurance limits are reviewed annually, and third-party coverage is purchased based on the expected scope of ongoing operations and the cost of third-party coverage.

Fuel and lube costs can fluctuate in any given period depending on the number and distance of vessel mobilizations, the number of active vessels off-hire, drydockings, and changes in fuel prices. Generally, our customers are responsible for fuel costs when our vessels are on-hire, and we are responsible for fuel costs when our vessels are off-hire or in drydock. We also incur vessel operating costs aggregated as "other" vessel operating costs. These costs consist of brokers' commissions, training costs, satellite communication fees, agent fees, port fees, freight and other miscellaneous costs. Brokers' commissions are incurred primarily in our non-U.S. operations where brokers sometimes assist in obtaining work. Brokers generally are paid a percentage of day rates and, accordingly, commissions paid to brokers generally fluctuate in accordance with vessel revenue.

We discuss our liquidity in terms of cash flow that we generate from our operations. Our primary sources of capital have been our cash on hand, internally generated funds including operating cash flow, vessel sales and long-term debt financing. From time to time, we also issue stock or stock-based financial instruments either in the open market or as currency in acquisitions. This ability is impacted by existing market conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 26

**Industry Conditions and Outlook**

Our business is exposed to numerous macro factors that influence our outlook and expectations. Our outlook and expectations described herein are based solely on the market as we see it today, and therefore, subject to various changing conditions that impact the oil and gas industry.

Our outlook is largely driven by expectations for the worldwide demand for hydrocarbons, and expectations surrounding the demand for and the global supply of vessels that support the offshore energy industry. Our business is directly impacted by the level of activity in worldwide offshore oil and gas exploration, development and production, which in turn is influenced by trends in oil and gas prices and the condition of the energy markets, and in particular, the willingness of energy companies to spend on offshore operational activities and capital projects. This activity includes demand for floating drilling rigs, which also directly impacts our industry.

Oil and gas prices are affected by a host of geopolitical and economic forces, including the fundamental principles of supply and demand. Offshore oil and gas exploration and development activities often require higher oil or gas prices to justify the higher expenditure levels of offshore activities compared to conventional onshore activities. Prices are subject to significant uncertainty and, as a result, are extremely volatile. Over the past several years, oil and gas commodity pricing and the overall supply of and demand for oil and gas have been affected by (i) a global pandemic, which included lock downs by major oil consuming nations; (ii) an ongoing war in eastern Europe between Russia and Ukraine, which includes sanctions on Russian oil production; (iii) an Israeli/Palestinian conflict that has resulted in increased disruption of shipping in the Middle East; (iv) Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries Plus (OPEC+) production quotas, market share expectations and pricing considerations; (v) resource growth in non-OPEC+ nations; (vi) a capital allocation focus on returning capital to shareholders within the major oil and gas companies, thereby limiting funds previously available for resource development; (vii) economies of and monetary policies in major consuming nations; (viii) increased activism related to the perceived responsibility of the oil and gas sector for climate change; and (ix) more recently, U.S. trade policies that include substantial tariffs, causing increased market uncertainty and volatility. These factors, as well as numerous other regional conflicts in producing regions, have at various times caused or exacerbated significant swings in oil and gas pricing, which in turn has affected the capital budgets of oil and gas companies. Despite the volatility in spot oil prices seen in recent years, our customers tend to consider less volatile medium and long-term prices in making offshore investment decisions. In the medium term, we continue to see positive upstream investment momentum in both the international and domestic markets. We believe these markets are driven by resilient long-cycle offshore developments, production capacity expansions and increased resource exploitation activities. We have experienced a sustained period of growth in offshore exploration and production in the past few years, which has been accompanied by much higher levels of activity and higher day rates for our vessels.

Multiple events during this year have introduced additional uncertainty to both the global economy and our business, including OPEC+ actions, tariffs, and regional conflicts. Determining the long-term impact of these events on our business and the industry continues to be challenging. Offshore drilling projects are typically long-cycle and do not immediately react to moderate increases or declines in oil and gas prices. However, sustained oil prices in the low $60s per barrel, may delay some drilling projects initially expected to commence in late 2025 and early 2026.

**RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**

Each of our five operating segments is led by senior management, the results are reviewed and resources are allocated by our Chief Executive Officer, the chief operating decision maker. Discrete financial information is available for each of the segments, and our Chief Executive Officer uses the results of each of the operating segments for resource allocation and performance evaluation.

The results of operations tables included below for the total company and the individual segments disclose financial results supplemented with average vessels, vessel utilization and average day rates.

Total vessel utilization is calculated on all vessels in service (which includes stacked vessels, vessels held for sale and vessels in drydock or down for repair). Active utilization is calculated on all owned and bareboat chartered vessels except vessels held for sale and stacked vessels. Vessel utilization rates are calculated by dividing the number of days a vessel works during a reporting period by the number of days the vessel is available to work in the reporting period. We consider a vessel to be stacked if the vessel crew is furloughed or substantially reduced and limited maintenance is performed on the vessel. Although not currently fulfilling charters, stacked vessels are considered in service and included in the calculation of our utilization statistics. As such, stacked vessels depress utilization rates because stacked vessels are considered available to work and are included in the calculation of utilization rates. We had seven stacked vessels at September 30, 2025 and one stacked vessel at December 31, 2024. The increase in stacked vessels is primarily attributable to recently idled older crew boats.

Vessel day rates are determined by the demand created largely through the level of offshore exploration, field development and production spending by energy companies relative to the supply of offshore support vessels. Specifications of available equipment and the scope of service provided may also influence vessel day rates. Average day rates are calculated by dividing the revenue a vessel earns during a reporting period by the number of days the vessel worked in the reporting period. Vessel operating cost per active days is calculated based on total available days less stacked days.

Total vessels in service include vessels not owned by us and under bareboat charter agreements. We had three such vessels to begin the year, but purchased one of the vessels in the third quarter now included in our owned vessel count. We gave notice to acquire one of the remaining vessels under bareboat charter, reclassifying it as a finance lease, also now included in our owned vessel count. The remaining vessel under bareboat charter is included in all vessel statistics but not included in our owned vessel count. These vessels affect the average vessel count in different degrees depending on when they were acquired or recorded as a finance lease.

*Revenue:*

● Decrease primarily due to the slightly lower average day rates, partially offset by increased utilization.

● The decrease in day rates was due to declines in demand in West Africa and Europe/Mediterranean.

● We sold four older crew boats during the third quarter. These sales combined with lower drydock and off-hire days increased our utilization.

*Vessel operating costs:*

● Increase primarily due to significantly higher crew and repairs costs. Higher crew costs were caused by a higher proportion of vessels working in Australia where operating costs are higher. Higher repair costs were related to several high-cost repairs in the third quarter. These increases were partially offset by lower other operating costs primarily related to insurance claims and the cost of a relief vessel in the second quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 29

------

*General and administrative:*

● Increase primarily due to higher professional fees.

*Depreciation and amortization:*

● Increase primarily due to higher drydock activity.

*Gain on asset dispositions, net:*

● During the third quarter of 2025, we sold four vessels for approximately $1.2 million in proceeds and recognized a net gain of $0.6 million on the dispositions. During the second quarter of 2025, we sold four vessels for approximately $7.3 million in proceeds and recognized a net gain of $5.5 million on the dispositions.

*Interest income and other, net:*

● No significant variances.

*Loss on early extinguishment of debt:*

● Increase primarily due to the early redemption premiums incurred in conjunction with the redemption of the 10.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due July 2028 and the 8.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2026.

*Interest expense:*

● No significant variances.

*Foreign exchange gains (losses):*

● Our foreign exchange gains in the third and second quarters of 2025 were primarily the result of the settlement and revaluation of various foreign currency balances due to the weakening of the U.S. Dollar, largely in the second quarter, against the Central and West African Franc, Norwegian Kroner, Brazilian Real, Angola Kwanza, British Pound and Euro.

*Income tax expense:*

● We are subject to taxes on our income in many jurisdictions worldwide and our actual tax expense can vary disproportionally to overall net income due to the mix of profits and losses in these foreign tax jurisdictions. Our tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 includes the impact from Pillar Two and taxes on our operations in foreign countries. The increase in income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, was primarily driven by the full release of the valuation allowance in the U.S. on net operating losses in the three months ended June 30, 2025.

*Revenue:*

● Increase primarily due to increased day rates partially offset by lower active utilization as a result of higher idle days.

● We took delivery of six new crew boats during the first nine months of 2025 and stacked some older crew boats. We sold ten older vessels, eight of which were crew boats.

*Vessel operating costs:*

● Decrease primarily due to lower crew costs in Americas and Asia Pacific segments and lower fuel and supplies costs in Americas and Europe/Mediterranean segments. These cost reductions were partially offset by higher repair costs resulting from increased repair days and higher other operating costs primarily related to an accrual for a legal claim.

*General and administrative:*

● Increase primarily due to higher personnel costs, higher stock compensation and charges associated with a transition and separation agreement. We also incurred higher professional fees in 2025 compared to 2024. In 2024, we had a significant recovery of bad debt expense that did not recur in 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 36

------

*Depreciation and amortization:*

● Increase primarily due to higher amortization of drydock costs.

*Gain on asset dispositions, net:*

● During the first nine months of 2025, we sold ten vessels for approximately $12.3 million in proceeds and recognized a net gain of $8.6 million on the dispositions. During the first nine months of 2024, we sold four vessels for approximately $14.9 million in proceeds and recognized a net gain of $13.1 million on the dispositions.

*Interest income and other, net:*

● Increase primarily due to a Brazil legal case recovery, which included an interest component.

*Loss on early extinguishment of debt:*

● Increase primarily due to the early redemption premiums incurred in conjunction with the redemption of the 10.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due July 2028 and the 8.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2026.

*Interest expense:*

● Decrease due to lower debt levels as we made principal payments of $26.5 million in the first six months of 2025 which followed payments of $76.5 million in the third and fourth quarters of 2024. These principal payments were partially offset by $11.5 million in new debt related to the six crew boats delivered in 2025. In addition, in July 2025, we issued $650.0 million of 9.125% Senior Notes due 2030, and refinanced all of our long-term debt, except for the vessel facility debt. The new Senior Notes interest cost is not materially different than the interest cost associated with the previous debt on a monthly basis.

*Foreign exchange gains (losses):*

● Our foreign exchange gains in 2025 and losses in 2024, were primarily the result of the settlement and revaluation of various foreign currency balances due to a weakening/strengthening of the U.S. Dollar against the Central African CFA Franc, West African CFA Franc, Norwegian Kroner, Brazilian Real, Angola Kwanza, British Pound and Euro.

*Income tax expense:*

● We are subject to taxes on our income in many jurisdictions worldwide and our actual tax expense can vary disproportionally to overall net income due to the mix of profits and losses in these foreign tax jurisdictions. Our tax expense for 2025 includes the impact from Pillar Two and taxes on our operations in foreign countries. Tax expense for 2024 is mainly attributable to taxes on our operations in foreign countries. During 2025, we released valuation allowance in the U.S. on net operating losses.

*Revenue:*

● Decrease primarily driven by a lower active vessel count and lower active utilization due to a decrease in vessel demand and vessel transfers, partially offset by higher average day rates.

● Utilization decreased due to higher idle days, partially offset by lower drydock and repair days.

*Vessel operating costs:*

● Decrease primarily due to lower crew costs associated with reduced manning levels resulting from higher idle days, a vessel transfer out of the segment and the sale of a vessel in the first nine months of 2025. This decrease was partially offset by an increase due to a legal claim accrual.

*General and administrative expense:*

● Increase primarily due to a credit to bad debt expense in the first nine months of 2024.

*Depreciation and amortization expense:*

● Increase primarily due to higher amortization of drydock costs.

● Active utilization increased due to lower drydock and repair days.

*Vessel operating costs:*

● Increase primarily due to higher crew costs associated with higher payroll tax expense and the impact of foreign exchange related to payment of wages in British Pound and the Norwegian Kroner. We also incurred higher other costs resulting from unplanned items incidental to vessels being down for repair and higher training costs. Fuel costs decreased due to lower drydock and repair days.

*General and administrative expense:*

● Increase primarily due to higher personnel costs and higher professional fees.

*Depreciation and amortization expense:*

● Increase due to higher amortization of drydock costs.

**Liquidity, Capital Resources and Other Matters**

Our objective in financing our business is to maintain and preserve adequate financial resources and sufficient levels of liquidity. As of September 30, 2025, we had $431.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, and a borrowing capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility of $250.0 million for which any future borrowings would be due April 2030. On July 7, 2025, we issued $650.0 million in 9.125% Senior Notes that mature in July 2030 (2030 Notes). With the proceeds of the offering, we redeemed most of our outstanding debt as of June 30, 2025, including accrued interest and early redemption premiums. Also on July 7, 2025, we executed the $250.0 million Revolving Credit Facility that replaced our previous $25.0 million credit facility. As of the date of this filing, no amounts have been drawn under the Revolving Credit Facility. For more information, see Note (8) - "Debt" to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q. We believe cash and cash equivalents, coupled with our revolving credit capacity, supplemented with future net cash provided by operating activities, will provide us with sufficient liquidity to fund our obligations and meet our liquidity requirements.

Our cash and cash equivalents include restricted cash and amounts held by foreign subsidiaries, the majority of which is available to us without adverse tax consequences. Included in foreign subsidiary cash are balances held in U.S. dollars and foreign currencies that await repatriation due to various currency conversion and stringent repatriation constraints, partner and tax related matters. We currently expect earnings by our foreign subsidiaries will be indefinitely reinvested in foreign jurisdictions to fund strategic initiatives (such as investment, expansion and acquisitions), fund working capital requirements and repay intercompany liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries in the normal course of business. Moreover, we do not currently intend to repatriate earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to the U.S. because cash generated from our domestic businesses and the repayment of intercompany liabilities from foreign subsidiaries are currently sufficient to fund the cash needs of our U.S. operations.

A key component of our growth strategy is expanding our business and fleets through acquisitions, joint ventures and other strategic transactions. We would expect to use net proceeds from any sale of our securities for general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures, investments, acquisitions, repayment or refinancing of indebtedness, and other business opportunities.

Working capital, which includes cash on hand, was $523.9 million at September 30, 2025, and includes $5.8 million of current maturities on long term debt. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we generated $114.0 million in net income and $226.1 million in cash flow from operating activities, which includes our interest payments and drydock costs.

As of September 30, 2025, our primary customer in Mexico had an aggregate outstanding receivable balance of $56.4 million, with $45.4 million over 90 days past due, which represented approximately 17.0% of our total trade and other receivables balance. The amounts are not in dispute. In October 2025, we received a $7.4 million payment, which was the first payment from this customer since June 2024. The customer has promised additional payments prior to the end of the year. We have not historically had, and we do not expect to have, any material write-offs due to the collectability of these receivables. However, future delays in this customer's payments could differ from historical practice and our current expectations, and could negatively impact our future results.

We signed agreements for the construction of two ocean going tugs and eight crew boats, all of which have been delivered as of September 30, 2025. We entered into Facility Agreements to finance a portion of the construction and delivery costs for approximately EUR 24.9 million ($26.7 million). Each of the ten Facility Agreements bears interest at fixed rates ranging from 2.7% to 6.3% and are payable in ten equal principal semi-annual installments, with the first installment commencing approximately six months following delivery of the vessel. Each Facility Agreement is secured by the respective vessel, guaranteed by Tidewater as parent guarantor and have no financial covenants.

Please refer to Note (8) - "Debt" to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on our indebtedness.

<u>**ITEM 4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**</u>

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that all information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, any control system, no matter how well conceived and followed, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

We evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2025.

**Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting**

There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
