ERA GROUP INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)


1.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICY

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Era Group Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless the context otherwise indicates, any reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the “Company” refers to Era Group Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, and any reference to “Era Group” refers to Era Group Inc. without its subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated financial information for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020 and ~~2018~~2019 has been prepared by the Company and has not been audited by its independent registered public accounting firm. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made to fairly present the Company’s financial position as of ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020, its results of operations for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020 and ~~2018~~2019, its comprehensive income for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020 and ~~2018~~2019, its changes in equity for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020, and ~~2018,~~2019, and its cash flows for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020 and ~~2018~~2019. Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year or any future periods.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States (“U.S.”) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018~~2019.

Certain of the Company’s operations are subject to seasonal factors. Operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico are often at their highest levels from April to September, as daylight hours increase, and are at their lowest levels from December through February, as daylight hours decrease.

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) caused a significant decrease in oil and natural gas prices resulting from oversupply and demand weakness and also caused significant disruptions and volatility in the global marketplace towards the end the first quarter of 2020. These conditions continued through April 2020 and are expected to continue for at least the near future. These conditions were initially exacerbated by decisions by large oil producing countries that have now been altered, but the resolution has not led to a meaningful increase in oil and gas prices. While the decline in oil and natural gas prices did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition during the three months ended March 31, 2020, a sustained environment of depressed prices could have a material impact on its business and its liquidity.

Basis of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Era Group Inc., its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and entities that meet the criteria of ~~VIEs of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Aeróleo Taxi Aereo S/A~~variable interest entities (“~~Aeróleo”~~VIEs”) ~~is a VIE~~ of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

~~Reclassification.~~ ~~Certain amounts reported for prior periods in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period’s presentation.~~

~~Supplemental Cash Flow Information.~~ ~~The following table sets forth the Company’s reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (in thousands):~~

June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 June 30, 2018 December 31, 2017

~~(1) Restricted cash represents amounts deposited in escrow accounts at the end of each period. Escrow deposits are shown as a separate line item in the consolidated balance sheet.~~

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenues for flight services and emergency response services with the passing of each day as the Company has the right to consideration from its customers in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the Company’s customer of the performance completed to date. Therefore, the Company has elected to exercise the right to invoice practical expedient in its adoption of ASC 606. The right to invoice represents a method for recognizing revenue over time using the output measure of “value to the customer” which is an objective measure of an entity’s performance in a contract. The Company typically invoices its customers on a monthly basis for revenues earned during the prior month with payment terms of 30 days. The Company’s customer arrangements do not contain any significant financing component for its customers.

~~Trade Receivables.~~Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL). Customers are primarily international, independent and major integrated exploration, development and production companies, third party helicopter operators and the U.S. government. The Company designates trade receivables as a single pool of assets based on its short-term nature, similar customer base and risk characteristics. Customers are typically granted credit on a short-term basis, and related credit risks are considered minimal. The Company ~~routinely reviews its~~conducts periodic quantitative and qualitative analysis on historic customer payment trends, customer credit ratings and foreseeable economic conditions. Historically, losses on trade receivables have been immaterial and ~~makes provisions~~uncorrelated to each other. Based on these circumstances, the Company decides if additional reserve amounts are needed against the trade receivables asset pool, on a case by case basis. Trade receivables are deemed uncollectible and removed from accounts receivable and the allowance for ~~probable~~ doubtful ~~accounts; however, those provisions are estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and those differences may be material.~~accounts when collection efforts have been exhausted. As of as of March 31, 2020, the Company did not reserve any additional amounts for CECL.

Leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception or during modification or renewal of an existing lease. Operating leases are maintained for a number of fixed assets including land, hangars, buildings, fuel tanks and tower sites. The right-of-use assets associated with these leases are reflected under long-term assets; the current portion of the long-term payables are reflected under other current liabilities; and the payables on lease agreements past one year are recorded as long-term liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. For those contracts with terms of twelve months or less, the lease expense

is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and recorded in operating expenses on the consolidated statement of operations. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date is used to determine the present value of future payments. Most of the Company’s lease agreements allow the option of renewal or extension, which are considered a part of the lease term. When it is reasonably certain that a lease will be extended, this is incorporated into the calculations.

New Accounting Standards - Adopted. In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“ FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (ASU No. 2016-02), which establishes comprehensive accounting and financial reporting requirements for leasing arrangements. This ASU supersedes the existing requirements in FASB ASC Topic 840, “Leases,” and requires lessees to recognize substantially all lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. The provisions of ASU No. 2016-02 also modify the definition of a lease and outline requirements for recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leasing arrangements by both lessees and lessors. This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption of the standard is permitted. In July 2018, the ASU No. 2016-02 was further amended by the provisions of ASU No. 2018-11, “Targeted Improvements” to Topic 842 whereby the FASB decided to provide an alternate transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date (such as January 1, 2019, for calendar year-end public business entities) and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption consistent with preparers’ requests. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, as amended, effective January 1, 2019, using the current-period adjustment method and has recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in that period. The Company has elected an optional practical expedient to retain its current classification of leases, and as a result, the initial impact of adopting this new standard has not been material to its consolidated financial statements. The cumulative effect of the adoption on retained earrings is less than $0.1 million. Additionally, the Company elected not to bifurcate and separately account for non lease components contained in a single contract. See note 4 - Leases for additional information related to the Company’s operating leases.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software” (Subtopic 350-40), providing guidance addressing a customer's accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement (“CCA”) that is considered a service contract. Under the new guidance, implementation costs for a CCA are evaluated for capitalization using the same approach as implementation costs associated with internal-use software and should be expensed over the term of the hosting arrangement, which includes any reasonably certain renewal periods. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 for calendar year-end public business entities. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. The Company will not take possession of implemented software and will rely on vendors to host the software, thus determining the cloud computing arrangements are service contracts. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, effective January 1, 2019, and has appropriately accounted for the implementation costs of the cloud computing arrangements entered into in the first half of 2019. The adoption of ASU-2018-15 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

~~New Accounting Standards - Not Yet Adopted.~~ In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (ASU No. 2016-13), which sets forth the current expected credit loss model, a new forward-looking impairment model for certain financial instruments based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption of the standard iswas permitted. Entities ~~are~~were required to adopt ASU No. 2016-13 using a modified retrospective approach, subject to certain limited exceptions. ~~The Company is currently~~Upon evaluating the ~~potential~~ impact ~~of the adoption~~ of this ASU, the Company concluded that no additional reserves were necessary as historical losses were immaterial, and, based on the qualitative and quantitative analysis performed in accordance with ASC 326 requirements, the Company determined there was no reasonable expectation of credit losses associated with the Company’s trade receivables in the foreseeable future. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020, and such adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurements” (ASU No. 2018-13, update to topic ASC-820), providing guidance for the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period, and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information (such as the median or arithmetic average) in lieu of the weighted average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted ASU No. 2018-13 ~~will~~effective January 1, 2020, and such adoption did not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Standards - Not Yet Adopted. In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, “Investments-Equity Securities” Topic 321, “Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures” Topic 323 and “Derivatives and Hedging” Topic 815 (ASU No. 2020-01) as an update to ASU No. 2016-01 “Financial Instruments-Overall”, further clarifying the interaction between the accounting for equity securities, equity method investments, and certain derivative instruments. This ASU clarifies that a company should consider observable transactions that require a company to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting under Topic 323, for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with Topic 321 immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. With this update, the FASB aims to clarify that, when determining the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchase options a company should now consider, whether upon settlement or exercise, if the underlying securities would be accounted for under the equity method or fair value option. The FASB expects this ASU to reduce diversity in practice and increase comparability of the accounting for these interactions. This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, ~~2019.~~2020. The Company ~~has~~is evaluating the potential impact of adopting this ASU but does not ~~adopted ASU No. 2018-13 and believes~~expect such adoption ~~will not~~to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.


2.	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs derived from observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

As of ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the Company did not have any assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s other financial assets and liabilities as of ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020 and December 31, ~~2018~~2019 were as follows (in thousands):


	Carrying Amount		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Carrying Amount		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
June 30, 2019
March 31, 2020
LIABILITIES
Long-term debt, including current portion	$	160,840	$	—	$	162,713	$	—	$	159,905	$	—	$	155,120	$	—

LIABILITIES
Long-term debt, including current portion	$	162,275	$	—	$	159,367	$	—	$	160,149	$	—	$	166,691	$	—

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and accounts payable approximate fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on estimated current rates for similar types of arrangements. Considerable judgment was required in developing certain of the estimates of fair value, and, accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

Investments. ~~During the first quarter of~~In 2019, the Company purchased $5.0 million of corporate ~~securities. This investment was recorded on the balance sheet under other current assets as its stated maturity date was within a year. During the three months ended June 30,~~securities and later in 2019, the Company sold these corporate securities for cash proceeds of $4.4 million resulting in a net loss of $0.6 million.


3.	ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

Capital Expenditures. During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, capital expenditures were ~~$2.6~~$0.4 million and consisted primarily of helicopter spare ~~helicopter parts and leasehold improvements.~~parts. During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did ~~not~~0t capitalize any interest. ~~During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company capitalized interest of $0.1 million.~~ As of ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, construction in progress, which is a component of property and equipment, included capitalized interest of $0.7 million. A summary of changes to the Company’s operating helicopter fleet is as follows:

Equipment Additions - During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did ~~not~~0t place any helicopters ~~into service. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company placed one S92 heavy helicopter~~ into service. The Company places helicopters in service once completion work has been finalized and the helicopters are ready for use.

Equipment Dispositions - During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did ~~not~~0t sell or dispose of any material assets. During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2018,~~March 31, 2020, the Company ~~sold or otherwise disposed of twenty helicopters, two operating facilities,~~parted out 1 light-twin helicopter, and ~~related property~~those parts are now available to repair and ~~equipment for cash proceeds of $29.5 million and receivables of $14.3 million.~~maintain other helicopters.


4.	LEASES

The Company leases land, hangars, buildings, fuel tanks and tower sites under operating lease agreements. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception, and many of these leases offer an option for renewal or extension. The adoption of ASC 842 allows the Company to retain its current classification of leases, and the optional practical expedience rule has allowed the use of the current-period adjustment method to recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance

of retained earnings in the current period rather than the restatement of prior year lease amounts. The majority of the bases from which the Company operates are leased, with current remaining terms between one and ~~sixty~~fifty-nine years. The lease expense on those contracts with initial terms of twelve months or less are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company does not currently maintain any finance leases and has only operating lease agreements.

The Company’s maturity analysis of lease payments under operating leases that ~~had a remaining term in excess of one year as of December 31, 2018 were as follows (in thousands):~~

This lease is expected to commence during the third quarter of 2019, with an expiration date of December 31, 2024.

respectively.

The Company generates revenues as a lessor from its dry-leasing line of service that require a fixed monthly fee for the customer’s right to use the helicopter and, where applicable, additional charges as compensation for any support the Company may provide to the customer. Revenues from dry-leasing contracts are shown on the face of the statement of operations.

In 2018, the Company disposed of ~~six~~6 H225 heavy helicopters through sales-type leases. In 2019, the Company completed the final sale of 2 of these helicopters and received cash proceeds of $5.0 million. During the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, the Company recognized $0.3 million of interest income on ~~these leases of $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively.~~the remaining leases.

These amounts are included in other receivables on the ~~remaining~~consolidated balance ~~of $3.8 million due within two years.~~sheet.


5.	~~VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES~~

~~Aeróleo.~~ The Company acquired a 50% economic and 20% voting interest in Aeróleo in 2011. As a result of liquidity issues experienced by Aeróleo, it is unable to adequately finance its activities without additional financial support from the Company, making it a VIE. The Company has the ability to direct the activities that most significantly affect Aeróleo’s financial performance, making the Company the primary beneficiary. As a result, the Company consolidates Aeróleo’s financial results.

7.750% Senior Notes. On December 7, 2012, Era Group issued $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.750% senior unsecured notes due December 15, 2022 (the “7.750% Senior Notes”) and received net proceeds of $191.9 million. Interest on the 7.750% Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15^th and December 15^th of each year.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company repurchased $0.7 million of the 7.750% Senior Notes at par for total cash of $0.7 million, including accrued interest of less than $0.1 million, and recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of less than $0.1 million.

Revolving Credit Facility. On March 31, 2014, Era Group entered into the amended and restated senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility”). On March 7, 2018, Era Group entered into a Consent and Amendment No. 4 to the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility Agreement (the “Amendment No. 4” and the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility, as amended by Amendment No. 4, is referred to herein as the “Revolving Credit Facility”) that, among other things, (a) reduced the aggregate principal amount of revolving loan commitments from $200.0 million to $125.0 million, (b) extended the agreement’s maturity until March 31, 2021, (c) revised the definition of EBITDA to permit an add-back for certain litigation expenses related to the H225 helicopters, and (d) adjusted the maintenance covenant requirements to maintain an interest coverage ratio of not less than 1.75:1.00 and a senior secured leverage ratio of not more than 3.25:1.00.

The Revolving Credit Facility provides Era Group with the ability to borrow up to $125.0 million, with a sub-limit of up to $50.0 million for letters of credit, and matures in March 2021. Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent and the agreement by the lenders, the Revolving Credit Facility includes an “accordion” feature which, if exercised, will increase total commitments by up to $50.0 million.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at Era Group’s election, either a base rate or LIBOR, each as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s ratio of funded debt to EBITDA, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, and ranges from 1.25% to 2.50% on the base rate margin and 2.25% to 3.50% on the LIBOR margin. The applicable margin as of ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020 was ~~1.75%~~1.50% on the base rate margin and ~~2.75%~~2.50% on the LIBOR margin. In addition, the Company is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee based on the unfunded portion of the committed amount at a rate based on the Company’s ratio of funded debt to EBITDA, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, that ranges from 0.375% to 0.500%. As of ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, the commitment fee was ~~0.500%~~0.375%.

The obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a portion of the Company’s helicopter fleet and the Company’s other tangible and intangible assets and are guaranteed by Era Group’s wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries. The Revolving Credit Facility contains various restrictive covenants including an interest coverage ratio, a senior secured leverage ratio and an asset coverage ratio, each as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, as well as other customary covenants including certain restrictions on the Company’s ability to enter into certain transactions, including those that could result in the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, the making of loans, guarantees or investments, sales of assets, payments of dividends or repurchases of capital stock, and entering into transactions with affiliates.

As of ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020, Era Group had no0 outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and issued letters of credit of $0.7 million. In connection with Amendment No. 4 entered into in 2018, the Company wrote off previously incurred debt issuance costs of $0.4 million and incurred additional debt issuance costs of $1.3 million. Such costs are included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations over the life of the Revolving Credit Facility.

~~Aeróleo Debt.~~ ~~During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company did not enter into any new debt arrangements in Brazil.~~

During 2017, the Company settled certain tax disputes in Brazil under the Tax Regularization Settlement Special Program (known as Programa Especial de Regularização Tributária or “PERT”) and has agreed to make installment payments on the amounts due to the applicable taxing authorities. The installments are payable in Brazilian reals and bear interest at a rate equal to the overnight rate as published by the Central Bank of Brazil. Such amounts are included in other debt in the table above. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company made scheduled payments of $0.2 million.

Promissory Notes. During each of the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2020 and 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ the Company made scheduled payments on other long-term debt of ~~$0.8~~$0.4 million. The notes require monthly principal and interest payments of $0.1 million with a final payment of $16.8 million, due upon maturity in December 2020.


8.7.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Fleet. The Company’s unfunded capital commitments as of ~~June 30, 2019~~March 31, 2020 consisted primarily of agreements to purchase helicopters and totaled ~~$81.3~~$79.6 million, which is payable beginning in ~~2019~~2020 through ~~2020~~2021. The Company also had $1.3 million of deposits paid on options not yet exercised. All of the Company’s capital commitments (inclusive of deposits paid on options not yet exercised) may be terminated without further liability other than aggregate liquidated damages of $2.1 million.

Included in these commitments are orders to purchase ~~three~~3 AW189 heavy helicopters and ~~five~~5 AW169 light twin helicopters. The AW189 helicopters are scheduled to be delivered ~~in 2020.~~2021. Delivery dates for the AW169 helicopters have yet to be determined. In addition, the Company had outstanding options to purchase up to ~~ten~~10 additional AW189 helicopters. If these options are exercised, the helicopters would be scheduled for delivery in ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2021.~~2022.

Brazilian Tax Disputes. In connection with its ownership of Aeróleo and its operations in Brazil, the Company has several ongoing legal disputes related to the local, municipal and federal taxation requirements in Brazil, including assessments associated with the import and re-export of its helicopters in Brazil. The legal disputes are related to: (i) municipal tax assessments arising under the authorities in Rio de Janeiro (for the period between 2000 and 2005) and Macaé (for the period between 2001 to 2006) (collectively, the “Municipal Tax Disputes”); (ii) social security contributions that one of its customers was required to

remit from 1995 to 1998; (iii) penalties assessed due to its alleged failure to comply with certain deadlines related to the helicopters the Company imports and exports in and out of Brazil; and (iv) fines sought by taxing authorities in Brazil related to its use of certain tax credits used to offset certain social tax liabilities (collectively, the “Tax Disputes”).

The aggregate amount at issue for the Tax Disputes is ~~$14.4~~$10.9 million. The Municipal Tax Disputes are the largest contributor to the total amount being sought from Aeróleo, with approximately ~~$10.7~~$8.3 million at issue.

In addition to the foregoing Tax Disputes (and unrelated thereto), Aeróleo is engaged in two additional civil litigation matters relating to: (i) a dispute with its former tax consultant who has alleged that ~~$0.5~~$0.7 million is due and payable as a contingency fee related to execution of certain tax strategies; and (ii) a fatal accident that occurred in 1983 that was previously settled with the plaintiffs’ in the U.S. (the “Civil Disputes”). With respect to the fatal accident, the plaintiffs are seeking to collect additional amounts in Brazil despite the previous settlement agreed upon by the parties in the U.S.

The Company continues to evaluate and assess various legal strategies for each of the Tax Disputes and the Civil Disputes. As is customary for certain legal matters in Brazil, Aeróleo has already deposited amounts as security into an escrow account to pursue further legal appeals in several of the Tax Disputes and the Civil Disputes. As of ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, the Company has deposited ~~$5.6~~$3.9 million into escrow accounts controlled by the court with respect to the Tax Disputes and the Civil Disputes, and the Company has fully reserved such amounts subject to final determination and the judicial release of such escrow deposits. These estimates are based on its assessment of the nature of these matters, their progress toward resolution, the advice of legal counsel and outside experts as well as management’s intentions and experience. Aeróleo plans to defend the cases vigorously. As of ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, it is not possible to determine the outcome of the Tax Disputes or the Civil Disputes, but the Company does not expect that an outcome would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position or results of operations.

General Litigation and Disputes

In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various litigation matters including, among other things, claims by third parties for alleged property damages and personal injuries. In addition, from time to time, the Company is involved in tax and other disputes with various government agencies. Management has used estimates in determining the Company’s potential exposure to these matters and has recorded reserves in its financial statements related thereto as appropriate. It is possible that a change in its estimates related to these exposures could occur, but the Company does not expect such changes in estimated costs would have a material effect on its business, consolidated financial position or results of operations.


9.8.	EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per common share of the Company are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the relevant periods. Diluted earnings per common share of the Company are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive securities through the application of the if-converted method and/or treasury method. Dilutive securities for this purpose assume all common shares have been issued and outstanding during the relevant periods pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock options.

The Company determines revenue recognition by applying the following steps:


1.	Identify the contract with a customer;


2.	Identify the performance obligations in the contract;


3.	Determine the transaction price;


4.	Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and


5.	Recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company earns the majority of its revenue through master service agreements or subscription agreements, which typically include a fixed monthly or daily fee, incremental fees based on hours flown and fees for ancillary items such as fuel, security, charter services, etc. The Company’s arrangements to serve its customers represent a promise to stand ready to provide services at the customer’s discretion.

The Company recognizes revenue for flight services and emergency response services with the passing of each day as the Company has the right to consideration from its customers in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of performance completed to date. The Company typically invoices customers on a monthly basis for revenues earned during the prior month, with payment terms of 30 days. The Company’s customer arrangements do not contain any significant financing component for customers. Amounts for taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are reported on a net basis.

ITEM 2.	MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements concerning management’s expectations, strategic objectives, business prospects, anticipated performance and financial condition and other similar matters involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements discussed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties and other important factors include, among others:

risks related to the Company’s recently announced combination (the “Merger”) with Bristow Group Inc. (“Bristow”), including:


◦	the ability of Bristow and the Company to obtain necessary shareholder approvals,


◦	the ability to satisfy all necessary conditions on the anticipated closing timeline or at all,


◦	the outcome of any legal proceedings, regulatory proceedings or enforcement matters that may be instituted relating to the Merger,


◦	conditions imposed in order to obtain required regulatory approvals for the Merger,


◦	the costs incurred to consummate the Merger,


◦	the possibility that the expected synergies from the Merger will not be realized,


◦	difficulties related to the integration of the two companies,


◦	disruption from the anticipated Merger making it more difficult to maintain relationships with customers, employees, regulators or suppliers, and


◦	the diversion of management time and attention to the anticipated combination;

the Company’s dependence on, and the cyclical and volatile nature of, offshore oil and gas exploration, development and production activity, and the impact of the coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) and general economic conditions and fluctuations in worldwide prices of, and demand for, oil and natural gas on such activity ~~levels;~~levels, including instances of below-zero prices in oil futures and concerns of an excess of oil supply for a sustained period and limitations of storage capacity for such excess oil supply;

the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and supply decisions by Saudi Arabia and Russia have resulted in a decrease in the price of and demand for oil, which has caused, and may continue to cause, a decrease in the demand for the Company's services;

the Company’s reliance on a limited number of customers and the reduction of its customer base as a result of bankruptcies or consolidation;

risks that the Company’s customers reduce or cancel contracted services or tender processes or obtain comparable services through other forms of transportation;

the Company’s dependence on United States (“U.S.”) government agency contracts that are subject to budget appropriations;

cost savings initiatives implemented by the Company’s customers;

risks inherent in operating helicopters;

the Company’s ability to maintain an acceptable safety record and level of reliability;

the impact of increased U.S. and foreign government regulation and legislation, including potential government implemented moratoriums on drilling activities;

the impact of a grounding of all or a portion of the Company’s fleet for extended periods of time or indefinitely on the Company’s business, including its operations and ability to service customers, results of operations or financial condition and/or the market value of the affected helicopters;

the Company’s ability to successfully expand into other geographic and aviation service markets;

risks associated with political instability, governmental action, war, acts of terrorism and changes in the economic condition in any foreign country where the Company does business, which may result in expropriation, nationalization, confiscation or deprivation of the Company’s assets or result in claims of a force majeure situation;

the impact of declines in the global economy and financial markets;

the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on the Company’s asset values and cost to purchase helicopters, spare parts and related services;

risks related to investing in new lines of aviation service without realizing the expected benefits;

risks of engaging in competitive processes or expending significant resources for strategic opportunities, with no guaranty of recoupment;

the Company’s reliance on a limited number of helicopter manufacturers and suppliers;

the Company’s ongoing need to replace aging helicopters;

the Company’s reliance on the secondary helicopter market to dispose of used helicopters and parts;

information technology related risks;

the impact of allocation of risk between the Company and its customers;

the liability, legal fees and costs in connection with providing emergency response services;

adverse weather conditions and seasonality;

risks associated with the Company’s debt structure;

the Company’s counterparty credit risk exposure;

the impact of operational and financial difficulties of the Company’s joint ventures and partners and the risks associated with identifying and securing joint venture partners when needed;

conflict with the other owners of the Company’s non-wholly owned subsidiaries and other equity investees;

adverse results of legal proceedings;

risks associated with significant increases in fuel costs;

the Company’s ability to obtain insurance coverage and the adequacy and availability of such coverage;

the possibility of labor problems;

the attraction and retention of qualified personnel;

restrictions on the amount of foreign ownership of the Company’s common stock; and

various other matters and factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control.

It is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, the foregoing should not be considered a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties. The words “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “believe,” “plan” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of the document in which they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation or undertaking to provide any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which the forward-looking statement is based. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be evaluated together with the many uncertainties that affect the Company’s businesses, particularly those discussed in greater detail in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of Era Group’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018~~2019, in the Preliminary Joint Proxy and Consent Statement/Prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 5, 2020 and amended on April 20, 2020 and on Era Group’s subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and periodic reporting on Form 8-K (if any).

Overview

We are one of the largest helicopter operators in the world and the longest serving helicopter transport operator in the U.S., which is our primary area of operations. Our helicopters are primarily used to transport personnel to, from and between offshore oil and gas production platforms, drilling rigs and other installations. In addition to serving the oil and gas industry, we provide emergency response services and utility services, among other activities. We also provide helicopters and related services to third-party helicopter operators. We currently have customers in the U.S., Brazil, Chile, Colombia, India, Mexico, Spain and Suriname.

We charter the majority of our helicopters through master service agreements, subscription agreements, long-term contracts, day-to-day charter arrangements and dry-leases. Master service agreements and subscription agreements typically require a fixed monthly fee plus incremental payments based on hours flown. These agreements have fixed terms ranging from one month to five years and generally may be canceled without penalty upon 30-120 days’ notice. Generally, these contracts do not commit our customers to acquire specific amounts of services or minimum flight hours and permit our customers to decrease the number of helicopters under contract with a corresponding decrease in the fixed monthly payments without penalty. Day-to-day charter arrangements call for either a combination of a daily fixed fee plus a charge based on hours flown or an hourly rate with a minimum number of hours to be charged. Dry-leases require a fixed monthly fee for the customer’s right to use the helicopter and, where applicable, additional charges as compensation for any maintenance, parts, and/or personnel support that we may provide to the customer. Dry-leases have fixed terms from several months to five years and, in limited circumstances, may be canceled without penalty upon written notice. Emergency response services consist of services provided on a subscription basis directly with the end users as well as charter services on an ad hoc basis.

Certain of our operations are subject to seasonal factors. Operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico are often at their highest levels from April to September, as daylight hours increase, and are at their lowest levels from December to February, as daylight hours decrease.

Recent Developments

~~Sale~~The Merger

On April 3, 2020, in connection with the Agreement and Plan of ~~assets~~

~~In early July 2019,~~Merger among the Company, ~~sold three light twin helicopters~~Ruby Redux Merger Sub ("Merger Sub"), a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Bristow (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into Bristow (the “Merger”), with Bristow continuing as the surviving corporation, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC that included a joint proxy statement of Era and Bristow that also constitutes a prospectus of Era (the “Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”). On April 13, 2020, we announced the expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”). The termination was effective as of 11:59 p.m. EDT on April 10, 2020, thereby ending the HSR Act waiting period for the Merger and fulfilling one ~~hangar facility~~of the conditions precedent in the merger agreement.

Impact of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a global crisis with the majority of countries limiting international travel and instituting other measures such as reducing or eliminating public gatherings by placing limits on such events, shuttering non-essential stores and services, voluntary and involuntary quarantines among other such measures in an effort to try to reduce the spread of COVID-19. The long-term impact of COVID-19 on the global economy is not yet known, but it is likely to have a significant influence in economic activity in the near-term. In particular, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, along with the impact of the collapse of OPEC+ negotiations resulting from the failure of Russia and Saudi Arabia to agree on terms to maintain oil production limits, has caused a drastic decrease in the price of oil.

To date, the Company's overall business, results of operations and financial condition have not been materially affected by the COVID-19 outbreak. However, the Company is taking precautions as an organization to protect its employees, customers and communities during this time. The Company has undertaken a number of proactive measures to reduce the spread of the virus and maintain the safety and health of the Company’s workforce, including, among other things, permitting employees that are able to work from home to do so, and implementing comprehensive screening at operational bases throughout the organization. Under guidance issued by the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the Company’s employees are deemed “essential,” thereby permitting certain parts of the organization to continue operating notwithstanding guidance or orders issued by state and local governments requiring businesses to close and persons to shelter in place and avoid unnecessary travel. The effects of the Company’s work-from-home policies may negatively impact productivity and disrupt the Company’s business, the magnitude of which will depend, in part, on the length and severity of the restrictions and other limitations on our ability to conduct our business in the ordinary course.

The COVID-19 pandemic is, however, a dynamic and continuously evolving phenomenon and the ultimate severity of the outbreak is uncertain at this time. If the pandemic worsens, additional restrictions are implemented or current restrictions are imposed for ~~cash proceeds~~a longer period of ~~$7.3 million, resulting in net gains~~time to contain the outbreak, the Company may experience a material adverse effect on our businesses, results of ~~$0.8 million.~~operations and financial condition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our ongoing liquidity requirements arise primarily from working capital needs, meeting our capital commitments (including the purchase of helicopters and other equipment) and the repayment of debt obligations. In addition, we may use our liquidity to fund acquisitions, repurchase shares or debt securities or make other investments. ~~Sources~~Our primary sources of liquidity are cash balances and cash flows from operations and, from time to time, we may obtain additional liquidity through the issuance of equity or debt or ~~through borrowings under the amended and restated senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”)~~other financing options or through asset sales.

~~During the Prior Six Months, net cash provided by investing activities was $24.3 million primarily as follows:~~

~~Proceeds from the disposition of property and equipment were $29.5 million.~~

~~Net principal payments received from equity investees and third parties were $0.8 million.~~

~~Capital expenditures were $6.0 million, which consisted primarily of helicopter acquisitions, spare helicopter parts, and capitalized interest.~~

Financing Activities

During the Current ~~Six Months,~~Quarter, net cash used in financing activities was ~~$7.2~~$1.0 million primarily as follows:

Purchases of treasury shares were $0.6 million.

Principal payments on long-term debt were $0.4 million.

During the Prior Year Quarter, net cash provided by financing activities was less than $0.1 million primarily as follows:

Proceeds from share award plans were $0.6 million.

~~Purchases of treasury shares were $6.1 million.~~

Principal payments on long-term debt were ~~$1.0 million.~~

~~Extinguishment of a portion of the 7.750% Senior Notes was $0.7 million.~~

~~During the Prior Six Months, net cash used in financing activities was $30.8 million primarily as follows:~~

~~Proceeds from share award plans were~~ $0.5 million.

~~Principal payments on long-term debt, including our Revolving Credit Facility, were $30.0 million.~~

~~Long-term debt issuance costs were $1.3 million incurred in connection with the amendment of the Revolving Credit Facility.~~

Unfunded Capital Commitments

As of ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, we had unfunded capital commitments of ~~$81.3~~$79.6 million, consisting primarily of agreements to purchase helicopters, including three AW189 heavy helicopters and five AW169 light twin helicopters. The AW189 helicopters are scheduled to be delivered in ~~2020.~~2021. Delivery dates for the AW169 helicopters have yet to be determined. These commitments are payable beginning in ~~2019~~2020 through ~~2020,~~2021, and all of the commitments (inclusive of deposits paid on options not yet exercised) may be terminated without further liability to us other than aggregate liquidated damages of $2.1 million. In addition, we had outstanding options to purchase up to ten additional AW189 helicopters. If these options are exercised, the helicopters would be scheduled for delivery in ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2021.~~2022.

If we do not exercise our rights to cancel these capital commitments, we expect to finance the remaining acquisition costs for these helicopters through a combination of cash on hand, cash provided by operating activities, asset sales and ~~borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.~~financing options.

Short and Long-Term Liquidity Requirements

We anticipate that we will generate positive cash flows from operating activities and that these cash flows will be adequate to meet our working capital requirements. ~~During the six months ended June 30, 2019, our cash provided by operating activities was $9.9 million.~~ To support our capital expenditure program and/or other liquidity requirements, we may use any combination of operating cash flow, cash balances or proceeds from sales of assets, issue debt or equity, or ~~borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.~~other financing options.

Our availability of long-term liquidity is dependent upon our ability to generate operating profits sufficient to meet our requirements for working capital, debt service, capital expenditures and a reasonable return on investment. While the COVID-19 pandemic, in general, and the related decrease in oil and natural gas prices, more specifically, have not had a material impact on our liquidity, a sustained environment of depressed oil and natural gas prices could affect capital spending for offshore oil and gas exploration, drilling and production, which in turn could affect our business and liquidity. As of March 31, 2020, we had $113.5 million in cash on hand and $124.3 million of remaining availability under our amended and restated senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”). Borrowings under the Facility are subject to pro forma compliance with a senior secured leverage ratio, as defined in the Facility, which was 0.3x at quarter end compared to the covenant requirement of not more than 3.25x, and an interest coverage ratio, which was 3.2x for the last twelve months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the covenant requirement of not less than 1.75x.

We have not participated in any government grants or relief programs and believe we have enough liquidity to weather the current COVID-19 crisis, while continuing to fulfill our debt obligations. Management will continue to closely monitor our liquidity, ~~and~~ the credit ~~markets.~~

markets and oil and gas prices.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

On occasion, we and our partners will guarantee certain obligations on behalf of our ~~joint ventures.~~subsidiaries and affiliates. As of ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, we had no such guarantees in place. As of ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, we had standby letters of credit totaling $0.7 million.

Contingencies

Brazilian Tax Disputes

In connection with our ownership of Aeróleo and its operations in Brazil, we have several ongoing legal disputes related to the local, municipal and federal taxation requirements in Brazil, including assessments associated with the import and re-export of our helicopters in Brazil. The legal disputes are related to: (i) municipal tax assessments arising under the authorities in Rio de Janeiro (for the period between 2000 and 2005) and Macaé (for the period between 2001 to 2006) (collectively, the “Municipal Tax Disputes”); (ii) social security contributions that one of our customers was required to remit from 1995 to 1998; (iii) penalties assessed due to our alleged failure to comply with certain deadlines related to the helicopters we import and export in and out of Brazil; and (iv) fines sought by taxing authorities in Brazil related to our use of certain tax credits used to offset certain social tax liabilities (collectively, the “Tax Disputes”).

In addition to the foregoing Tax Disputes (and unrelated thereto), Aeróleo is engaged in two additional civil litigation matters relating to: (i) a dispute with its former tax consultant who has alleged that ~~$0.5~~$0.7 million is due and payable as a contingency fee related to execution of certain tax strategies; and (ii) a fatal accident that occurred in 1983 and was previously settled with the plaintiffs’ in the U.S. (the “Civil Disputes”). With respect to the fatal accident, the plaintiffs are seeking to collect additional amounts in Brazil despite the previous settlement agreed upon by the parties in the U.S.

We continue to evaluate and assess various legal strategies for each of the Tax Disputes and the Civil Disputes. As is customary for certain legal matters in Brazil, Aeróleo has already deposited amounts as security into an escrow account to pursue

further legal appeals in several of the Tax Disputes and the Civil Disputes. As of ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, we have deposited ~~$5.6~~$3.9 million into escrow accounts controlled by the court with respect to the Tax Disputes and the Civil Disputes, and we have fully reserved such amounts subject to final determination and the judicial release of such escrow deposits. These estimates are based on our assessment of the nature of these matters, their progress toward resolution, the advice of legal counsel and outside experts as well as management’s intentions and experience. Aeróleo plans to defend the cases vigorously. As of ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, it is not possible to determine the outcome of the Tax Disputes or the Civil Disputes, but we do not expect that an outcome would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.

For additional information about our contractual obligations and commercial commitments, refer to “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. There have been no material changes since such date.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements is in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP, whereas, in other circumstances, GAAP requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon information available. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, professional advice and various other sources that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. In addition to the policies discussed in Item 7 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the following involves a high degree of judgment and complexity.

~~Leases~~Current expected Credit Losses (CECL). ~~We have elected an optional practical expedient~~All of our trade receivables are assessed as a single pool of assets due to ~~retain our current classification~~their short-term nature and risk characteristics. Based on a periodic analysis of ~~leases~~quantitative and adopted ASU 2016-02 using the current-period adjustment method thus recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the current period.

ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For additional information about our exposure to market risk, refer to Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. There has been no material change in our exposure to market risk during the Current Quarter, except as described below.

As of ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, we had non-U.S. dollar denominated capital purchase commitments of ~~€71.5~~€72.3 million ($~~81.3~~79.6 million). An adverse change of 10% in the underlying foreign currency exchange rate would increase the U.S. dollar equivalent of the non-hedged purchase commitments by ~~$8.1~~$8.0 million. As of ~~June 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2020, our Brazilian subsidiary maintained a non-U.S. dollar denominated working capital balance of R$~~40.3~~36.9 million ($~~10.5~~7.1 million). An adverse change of 10% in the underlying foreign currency exchange rate would reduce our working capital balance by ~~$1.0~~$0.6 million.


ITEM 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of ~~June 30, 2019.~~March 31, 2020. Based on their evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including ensuring that such material information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

For a detailed discussion of our risk factors, see “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. Additional risk factors are described below.

~~Our Amended~~The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and ~~Restated Certificate~~supply decisions by Saudi Arabia and Russia have resulted in a decrease in the price of ~~Incorporation includes~~and demand for oil, which has caused, and may continue to cause, a ~~forum selection clause,~~decrease in the demand for the Company’s services.

Beginning in February 2020, oil prices experienced record declines and are currently at record low levels in response to dramatic supply and demand uncertainty caused by (i) COVID-19, which has significantly reduced global and national economic activity, resulting in a significant decline in the price of and demand for oil and (ii) supply decisions principally by Russia and Saudi Arabia resulting in failure to agree on terms to maintain production limits and the ensuing influx of additional oil to an already oversupplied market. On January 23, 2020, the date the Merger Agreement was executed, Brent crude oil prices closed at a price of $62.04 per barrel. As of April 20, 2020, the NYMEX WTI oil futures price for May 2020 was -$37.63 per barrel. While OPEC+ reached an agreement to limit production, oil prices did not significantly recover as a result of the agreement. As of May 2020, Brent crude oil prices closed at a price of $27.20 per barrel. To the extent that the outbreak of COVID-19 continues to negatively impact demand and OPEC members and other oil exporting nations fail to implement additional production cuts or other actions that are sufficient to support and stabilize commodity prices, we expect there to be excess supply of oil and natural gas for a sustained period. This excess supply could, in turn, result in transportation and storage capacity constraints in the United States, or even the elimination of available storage. As a result, we cannot anticipate whether or when oil prices will return to normalized levels, and oil prices could remain at current levels or decline further for an extended period of time.

The Company provides many services, the demand for which is highly correlated to the price of oil and natural gas, as such prices drive capital spending decisions by both major and independent oil and gas exploration, development and production companies. While the Company has not seen a significant decline in demand for its services to date, as a result of the decrease in the price of oil, the Company may see customers’ demand for its services decrease, and if the price of oil remains low or decreases below its current averages, demand for the Company’s services (including after the Merger) could further decrease and the decrease could be significant.

In addition, the pandemic may affect the health of the Company’s workforce, and international, national and local government interventions enacted to reduce the spread of COVID-19 may render the Company’s employees unable to work or travel. Although the Company’s workforce is largely considered to be “essential” under guidance issued by the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, if the COVID-19 pandemic were to impact a location where the Company (or any of its key suppliers) have a high concentration of business and resources, their local workforces could be affected by the outbreak, which could ~~limit our stockholders’~~also significantly disrupt their operations and decrease their ability to ~~obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us.~~

~~Our Amended~~provide helicopter services and ~~Restated Certificate of Incorporation requires~~equipment to their customers. For instance, if an outbreak occurs among the Company’s pilots, technicians or other employees who must be present at operating bases, it is highly unlikely that ~~unless~~ the Company, ~~consents in writing~~before or after the Merger, will be able to find replacements while the ~~selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery~~affected employees are out.

The duration and severity of the ~~State of Delaware shall~~business disruption and related financial impact from the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. If the ~~sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf~~impact of the ~~Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim~~COVID-19 pandemic continues for an extended period of ~~breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer~~time, it could materially adversely affect the demand for the Company’s helicopter services and equipment or other employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation's stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine.

This exclusive forum provision will not apply to claims under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, but will apply to other state and federal law claims including actions arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (although our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder). Section 22 of the Securities Act of 1933, however, creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act of 1933 or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such a forum selection provision as written in connection with claims arising under the Securities Act of 1933. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock is deemed to have notice of and consented to the foregoing provisions. This forum selection provision in our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation may limit our stockholders’its ability to ~~obtain~~provides services, either of which could have a ~~favorable judicial forum for disputes with us. It is also possible that, notwithstanding~~material adverse effect on the ~~forum selection clause included in our bylaws, a court could rule that such a provision is inapplicable or unenforceable.~~Company’s business.
