NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Organization and Principles of Consolidation
Dril-Quip, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company or Dril-Quip), designs, manufactures, sells and services highly engineered offshore drilling and production equipment that is well suited for use in deepwater, harsh environment and severe service applications. The Companys principal products consist of subsea and surface wellheads, subsea and surface production trees, subsea control systems and manifolds, mudline hanger systems, specialty connectors and associated pipe, drilling and production riser systems, liner hangers, wellhead connectors and diverters. Dril-Quips products are used by major integrated, large independent and foreign national oil and gas companies in offshore areas throughout the world. Dril-Quip also provides technical advisory assistance on an as-requested basis during installation of its products, as well as rework and reconditioning services for customer-owned Dril-Quip products. In addition, Dril-Quips customers may rent or purchase running tools from the Company for use in the installation and retrieval of the Companys products.
The Companys operations are organized into three geographic segmentsWestern Hemisphere (including North and South America; headquartered in Houston, Texas), Eastern Hemisphere (including Europe and Africa; headquartered in Aberdeen, Scotland) and Asia-Pacific (including the Pacific Rim, Southeast Asia, Australia, India and the Middle East; headquartered in Singapore). Each of these segments sells similar products and services and the Company has major manufacturing facilities in all three of its headquarter locations as well as in Macae, Brazil.
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited. The balance sheet at December 31, 2014, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position as of March 31, 2015 and the results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Management believes the unaudited interim related disclosures in these condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate. The results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Revisions
The Company has corrected its 2014 Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow to reflect a $6.7 million reclassification adjustment from changes in prepaids and other assets to changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses. There was no impact on the net cash provided by operating activities or any other reported cash flow amounts as a result of the reclassifications. The Company has evaluated the impact of this revision and determined that it was not material.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of the Companys more significant estimates are those affected by critical accounting policies for revenue recognition, inventories and contingent liabilities.
5
Revenue Recognition
Product Revenue
The Company earns product revenues from two methods:
| product revenues recognized under the percentage-of-completion method; and |
| product revenues from the sale of products that do not qualify for the percentage-of-completion method. |
Revenues recognized under the percentage-of-completion method
The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method on long-term project contracts that have the following characteristics:
| The contracts call for products which are designed to customer specifications; |
| The structural designs are unique and require significant engineering and manufacturing efforts generally requiring more than one year in duration; |
| The contracts contain specific terms as to milestones, progress billings and delivery dates; and |
| Product requirements cannot be filled directly from the Companys standard inventory. |
For each project, the Company prepares a detailed analysis of estimated costs, profit margin, completion date and risk factors which include availability of material, production efficiencies and other factors that may impact the project. On a quarterly basis, management reviews the progress of each project, which may result in revisions of previous estimates, including revenue recognition. The Company calculates the percent complete and applies the percentage to determine the revenues earned and the appropriate portion of total estimated costs. Losses, if any, are recorded in full in the period they become known. Historically, the Companys estimates of total costs and costs to complete have approximated actual costs incurred to complete the project.
Under the percentage-of-completion method, billings may not correlate directly to the revenue recognized. Based upon the terms of the specific contract, billings may be in excess of the revenue recognized, in which case the amounts are included in customer prepayments as a liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Likewise, revenue recognized may exceed customer billings in which case the amounts are reported in trade receivables. Unbilled revenues are expected to be billed and collected within one year. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, receivables included $68.7 million and $68.0 million of unbilled receivables, respectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, there were 11 projects representing approximately 15% of the Companys total revenues and approximately 18% of its product revenues that were accounted for using percentage-of-completion accounting, compared to 15 projects during the first quarter of 2014, which represented approximately 12% of the Companys total revenues and approximately 14% of its product revenues.
Revenues not recognized under the percentage-of-completion method
Revenues from the sale of inventory products, not accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method, are recorded at the time the manufacturing processes are complete and ownership is transferred to the customer.
Service revenue
The Company earns service revenues from three sources:
| technical advisory assistance; |
| rental of running tools; and |
| rework and reconditioning of customer-owned Dril-Quip products. |
The Company does not install products for its customers, but it does provide technical advisory assistance. At the time of delivery of the product, the customer is not obligated to buy or rent the Companys running tools and the Company is not obligated to perform any subsequent services relating to installation. Technical advisory assistance service revenue is recorded at the time the service is rendered. Service revenues associated with the rental of running and installation tools are recorded as earned. Rework and reconditioning service revenues are recorded when the refurbishment process is complete.
6
The Company normally negotiates contracts for products, including those accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method, and services separately. For all product sales, it is the customers decision as to the timing of the product installation as well as whether Dril-Quip running tools will be purchased or rented. Furthermore, the customer is under no obligation to utilize the Companys technical advisory assistance services. The customer may use a third party or their own personnel.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their respective fair values as they are short-term in nature.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed considering the dilutive effect of stock options and awards using the treasury stock method.
In each relevant period, the net income used in the basic and dilutive earnings per share calculations is the same. The following table reconciles the weighted average basic number of common shares outstanding and the weighted average diluted number of common shares outstanding for the purpose of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share:

3. New Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The amendment applies a new five-step revenue recognition model to be used in recognizing revenues associated with customer contracts. The amendment requires disclosure sufficient to enable readers of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill the contract. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact on its consolidated financial statements.
4. Stock-Based Compensation and Stock Awards
During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized approximately $3.4 million and $2.8 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense, which is included in the selling, general and administrative expense line on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. No stock-based compensation expense was capitalized during the three months ended March 31, 2015 or 2014.

7. Commitments and Contingencies
Brazilian Tax Issue
From 2002 to 2007, the Companys Brazilian subsidiary imported goods through the State of Espirito Santo in Brazil and subsequently transferred them to its facility in the State of Rio de Janeiro. During that period, the Companys Brazilian subsidiary paid taxes to the State of Espirito Santo on its imports. Upon the final sale of these goods, the Companys Brazilian subsidiary collected taxes from customers and remitted them to the State of Rio de Janeiro net of the taxes paid on importation of those goods to the State of Espirito Santo in accordance with the Companys understanding of Brazilian tax laws.
In August 2007, the State of Rio de Janeiro served the Companys Brazilian subsidiary with assessments to collect a state tax on the importation of goods through the State of Espirito Santo from 2002 to 2007 claiming that these taxes were due and payable to it under applicable law. The Company settled these assessments with payments to the State of Rio de Janeiro of $12.2 million in March 2010 and $3.9 million in December 2010. Approximately $7.8 million of these settlement payments were attributable to penalties, interest and amounts that had expired under the statute of limitations so that amount was recorded as an expense. The remainder of the settlement payments generated credits (recorded as a prepaid tax) that are expected to be used over the next five years to offset future state taxes on sales to customers in the State of Rio de Janeiro.
In December 2010 and January 2011, the Companys Brazilian subsidiary was served with two additional assessments totaling approximately $13.0 million from the State of Rio de Janeiro to cancel the credits associated with the tax payments to the State of Espirito Santo (Santo Credits) on the importation of goods from July 2005 to October 2007. The Santo Credits are not related to the credits described above. The Company has objected to these assessments on the grounds that they would represent double taxation on the importation of the same goods and that the Company is entitled to the credits under applicable Brazilian law. With regard to the December 2010 assessment, the Companys Brazilian subsidiary has filed an appeal with the relevant State of Rio de Janeiro judicial court to annul the tax assessment following a ruling against the Company by the tax administrations highest council. In connection with that appeal, the Company was required to deposit with the court approximately $3.1 million (at the December 31, 2014 exchange rate of 2.67 Brazilian real to 1.00 U.S. dollar) as the full amount of the assessment with penalties and interest. The Company intends to file a similar appeal in the judicial system if the tax administrations highest council rules against the Company with regard to the January 2011 assessment. The Company believes that these credits are valid and that success in the judicial court process is probable. Based upon this analysis, the Company has not accrued any liability in conjunction with this matter.
Since 2007, the Companys Brazilian subsidiary has paid taxes on the importation of goods directly to the State of Rio de Janeiro and the Company does not expect any similar issues to exist for periods subsequent to 2007.
General
The Company operates its business and markets its products and services in most of the significant oil and gas producing areas in the world and is, therefore, subject to the risks customarily attendant to international operations and dependency on the condition of the oil and gas industry. Additionally, products of the Company are used in potentially hazardous drilling, completion, and production
9
applications that can cause personal injury, product liability, and environmental claims. Although exposure to such risk has not resulted in any significant problems in the past, there can be no assurance that ongoing and future developments will not adversely impact the Company.
The Company is also involved in a number of legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Although no assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate outcome of such legal action, in the opinion of management, the ultimate liability with respect thereto will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The following is managements discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected aspects of the Companys financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows during the periods included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto presented elsewhere herein as well as the discussion under Risk Factors, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

In addition, Dril-Quip customers may rent or purchase running tools from the Company for use in the installation and retrieval of the Companys products.
Oil and Gas Prices
Both the market for offshore drilling and production equipment and services and the Companys business are substantially dependent on the condition of the oil and gas industry and, in particular, the willingness of oil and gas companies to make capital expenditures on exploration, drilling and production operations offshore. Oil and gas prices and the level of offshore drilling and production activity have historically been characterized by significant volatility.
According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA) of the U.S. Department of Energy, Brent Crude oil and Henry Hub natural gas closing and average prices are listed below for the periods covered by this report:
Three months ended March 31, |
||||||||
2015 | 2014 | |||||||
Closing Crude oil ($/Bbl) |
$ | 53.69 | $ | 105.95 | ||||
Average Crude oil ($/Bbl) |

Closing Natural gas ($/Mcf) |
$ | 2.73 | $ | 4.62 | ||||
Average Natural gas ($/Mcf) |
$ | 2.99 | $ | 5.34 |
Brent Crude oil prices ranged between $45.13 per barrel and $61.89 per barrel with an average price of $53.98 for the first quarter of 2015, compared to prices ranging between $105.73 per barrel and $111.26 per barrel with an average price of $108.14 in the first quarter of 2014. Brent crude oil prices ended the first quarter of 2015 at $53.69 per barrel. This represents a decrease of more than 50% in average price on a year-over-year basis. At March 31, 2015, the Henry Hub natural gas price was $2.73 per Mcf, compared to $4.62 per Mcf on March 31, 2014. The Henry Hub natural gas prices ranged from $2.70 per Mcf to $3.42 per Mcf for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 as compared to a low of $4.07 per Mcf and a high of $8.40 per Mcf for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. On April 21, 2015 the Henry Hub natural gas price closed at $2.67 per Mcf and the Brent Crude oil price closed at $60.12 per barrel.
According to the April 2015 release of the Short-Term Energy Outlook published by the EIA, Brent Crude oil prices are projected to average $59.32 per barrel in 2015 and $75.00 per barrel in 2016. In its April 2015 Oil Market Report, the International Energy Agency forecasted the 2015 global demand of oil to be 93.6 million barrels per day, a 1.1 million barrels per day increase over 2014. In April 2015, the EIA also projected Henry Hub natural gas prices to average $3.16 per Mcf in 2015 and $3.55 per Mcf in 2016.

The table above represents rigs under contract and includes rigs currently drilling as well as rigs committed, but not yet drilling. According to IHS-Petrodata RigBase, as of March 31, 2015, there were 57 rigs under contract (44 floating rigs and 13 jack-up rigs) in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, 52 of which were actively drilling (39 floating rigs and 13 jack-up rigs). At March 31, 2014, there were 72 rigs under contract in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico (44 floating rigs and 28 jack-up rigs), of which 63 were actively drilling (36 floating rigs and 27 jack-up rigs).
The global offshore count for rigs under contract decreased 4.4% from December 2014 to March 2015.
The Company believes that the number of rigs (semi-submersibles, drillships and jack-up rigs) under construction impacts its revenues because in certain cases, its customers order some of the Companys products during the construction of such rigs. As a result, an increase in rig construction activity tends to favorably impact the Companys backlog while a decrease in rig construction activity tends to negatively impact the Companys backlog. According to IHS-Petrodata, at the end of March 2015 and 2014, there were 214 and 241 rigs, respectively, under construction, which represents an approximate 11% decline in rigs under construction. The expected delivery dates for the rigs under construction at March 31, 2015 are as follows:

Regulation
The demand for the Companys products and services is also affected by laws and regulations relating to the oil and gas industry in general, including those specifically directed to offshore operations. The adoption of new laws and regulations, or changes to existing laws or regulations that curtail exploration and development drilling for oil and gas for economic or other policy reasons could adversely affect the Companys operations by limiting demand for its products.
12
Business Environment
Oil and gas prices and the level of offshore drilling and production activity have been characterized by significant volatility in recent years. Worldwide military, political, economic and other events have contributed to oil and natural gas price volatility and are likely to continue to do so in the future. In 2013, Brent Crude oil prices ranged between $96.84 per barrel and $118.90 per barrel with an average price of $108.56 per barrel and ended the year at $109.95 per barrel. In 2014, Brent Crude oil prices ranged between $55.27 per barrel and $115.19 per barrel with an average price of $98.97 per barrel and ended the year at $55.27 per barrel. For the first quarter of 2014, the price of Brent Crude oil ranged between $105.73 per barrel and $111.26 per barrel with an average price of $108.14 per barrel and ended the quarter at $105.95 per barrel. In the fourth quarter of 2014, Brent Crude oil prices fell to a low of $55.27 per barrel. For the first quarter of 2015, the prices ranged between $45.13 per barrel and $61.89 per barrel, averaging $53.98 per barrel and closing at $53.69 per barrel on March 31, 2015. The Company expects continued volatility in both crude oil and natural gas prices, as well as in the level of drilling and production related activities. Even during periods of high prices for oil and natural gas, companies exploring for oil and gas may cancel or curtail programs, or reduce their levels of capital expenditures for exploration and production for a variety of reasons. In addition, a significant and prolonged decline in hydrocarbon prices would likely have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of operations.
The Company believes that its backlog should help mitigate the impact of negative market conditions; however, a continued decline in commodity prices or an extended downturn in the global economy or future restrictions or declines in offshore oil and gas exploration and production could have a negative impact on the Company and/or its backlog. The Companys backlog at March 31, 2015 was approximately $1.1 billion compared to approximately $1.3 billion at March 31, 2014 and $1.2 billion at December 31, 2014. In August 2012, the Companys Brazilian subsidiary, Dril-Quip do Brasil LTDA, was awarded a four-year contract by Petroleo Brasileiro S.A. (Petrobras), Brazils national oil company. At exchange rates in effect at the signing date (2.04 Brazilian real to 1.00 U.S. dollar), the contract was valued at $650 million, net of Brazilian taxes, if all of the equipment under the contract is ordered. The Company cannot provide assurance that Petrobras will order all of the equipment under the contract. Amounts are included in the Companys backlog as purchase orders under the contract are received. Revenues of approximately $81 million have been recognized on this contract through March 31, 2015. As of March 31, 2015, the Companys backlog included $74 million (at the March 31, 2015 exchange rate of 3.21 Brazilian real to 1.00 U.S. dollar) of purchase orders under this Petrobras contract. The Company has not yet recognized revenue of approximately $7.2 million as of March 31, 2015 for certain items of equipment that were completed but not yet accepted for delivery by Petrobras. If Petrobras does not ultimately accept these items for delivery or if they refuse to accept these or similar items completed in the future, the Companys results of operations may be adversely affected.
The Company operates its business and markets its products and services in most of the significant oil and gas producing areas in the world and is, therefore, subject to the risks customarily attendant to international operations and investments in foreign countries. These risks include nationalization, expropriation, war, acts of terrorism and civil disturbance, restrictive action by local governments, limitation on repatriation of earnings, change in foreign tax laws and change in currency exchange rates, any of which could have an adverse effect on either the Companys ability to manufacture its products in its facilities abroad or the demand in certain regions for the Companys products or both. To date, the Company has not experienced any significant problems in foreign countries arising from local government actions or political instability, but there is no assurance that such problems will not arise in the future. Interruption of the Companys international operations could have a material adverse effect on its overall operations.
Revenues. Dril-Quips revenues are generated from two sources: products and services. Product revenues are derived from the sale of offshore drilling and production equipment. Service revenues are earned when the Company provides technical advisory assistance for installation of the Companys products, reconditioning services and rental of running tools for installation and retrieval of the Companys products. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company derived 83% and 84%, respectively, of its revenues from the sale of its products and 17% and 16%, respectively, of its revenues from services. Service revenues generally correlate to revenues from product sales because increased product sales typically generate increased demand for technical advisory assistance services during installation and rental of running tools. The Company has substantial international operations, with approximately 62% and 63% of its revenues derived from foreign sales for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Substantially all of the Companys domestic revenue relates to operations in the U. S. Gulf of Mexico. Domestic revenue approximated 38% and 37%, respectively, of the Companys total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
Product contracts are negotiated and sold separately from service contracts. In addition, service contracts are not typically included in the product contracts or related sales orders and are not offered to the customer as a condition of the sale of the Companys products. The demand for products and services is generally based on world-wide economic conditions in the offshore oil and gas industry, and is not based on a specific relationship between the two types of contracts. Substantially all of the Companys sales are made on a purchase order basis. Purchase orders are subject to change and/or termination at the option of the customer. In case of a change or termination, the customer is required to pay the Company for work performed and other costs necessarily incurred as a result of the change or termination.
13
Generally, the Company attempts to raise its prices as its costs increase. However, the actual pricing of the Companys products and services is impacted by a number of factors, including global oil prices, competitive pricing pressure, the level of utilized capacity in the oil service sector, maintenance of market share, the introduction of new products and general market conditions.
The Company accounts for larger and more complex projects that have relatively longer manufacturing time frames on a percentage-of-completion basis. For the first three months of 2015, 11 projects representing approximately 15% of the Companys total revenue and approximately 18% of its product revenue were accounted for using percentage-of-completion accounting, compared to 15 projects representing approximately 12% of the Companys total revenue and 14% of its product revenue for the first three months of 2014. This percentage may fluctuate in the future. Revenues accounted for in this manner are generally recognized based upon a calculation of the percentage complete, which is used to determine the revenue earned and the appropriate portion of total estimated cost of sales. Accordingly, price and cost estimates are reviewed periodically as the work progresses, and adjustments proportionate to the percent complete are reflected in the period when such estimates are revised. Losses, if any, are recorded in full in the period they become known. Amounts received from customers in excess of revenues recognized are classified as a current liability.
Cost of Sales. The principal elements of cost of sales are labor, raw materials and manufacturing overhead. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues is influenced by the product mix sold in any particular period, costs from projects accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method and market conditions. The Companys costs related to its foreign operations do not significantly differ from its domestic costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses include the costs associated with sales and marketing, general corporate overhead, business development expenses, compensation expense, stock-based compensation expense, legal expenses, foreign currency transaction gains and losses and other related administrative functions.
Engineering and Product Development Expenses. Engineering and product development expenses consist of new product development and testing, as well as application engineering related to customized products.
Income Tax Provision. The Companys overall effective income tax rate has historically been lower than the statutory rate primarily due to foreign income tax rate differentials, research and development credits and deductions related to domestic manufacturing activities.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2014.
Revenues. Revenues increased by $21.9 million, or approximately 10.7%, to $226.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2015 from $204.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2014. Product revenues increased by approximately $15.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 as a result of increased revenues of $15.5 million in subsea equipment due to increases in demand. Product revenues increased in the Eastern Hemisphere by $25.5 million and decreased in Asia-Pacific by $7.4 million largely due to revenues recognized on long-term projects accounted for under the percentage-of-completion accounting method in the first quarters of 2015 and 2014. In any given time period, the revenues recognized between the various product lines and geographic areas will vary depending upon the timing of shipments to customers, completion status of the projects accounted for under the percentage-of-completion accounting method, market conditions and customer demand. Service revenues increased by approximately $6.4 million primarily due to increased technical advisory assistance service and rental of the Companys running and installation tools.
15
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased by $14.3 million, or approximately 12.9%, to $125.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 from $110.8 million for the same period in 2014. As a percentage of revenues, cost of sales increased slightly more than 1% to 55.4% from 54.3% in the three months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $6.9 million, or 28.9%, to $17.0 million from $23.9 million in the 2014 period. The Company experienced a pre-tax foreign currency transaction gain of $6.5 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to a loss of $911,000 in the first quarter of 2014. Stock award expense totaled $3.4 million for the first quarter of 2015 as compared to $2.8 million in 2014. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 7.5% in the first quarter of 2015 from 11.6% in the first quarter of 2014.
Engineering and Product Development Expenses. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, engineering and product development expenses totaled $12.2 million compared to $10.8 million for the same period in 2014, an increase of $1.4 million, or 13.0%. Payroll and related expenses accounted for the majority of the increase for the three months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014. Engineering and product development expenses as a percentage of revenues increased to 5.4% in the first quarter of 2015 from 5.3% in the first quarter of 2014.
Income tax provision. Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $18.1 million on income before taxes of $71.7 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of approximately 25.2%. Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $16.0 million on income before taxes of $58.6 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of approximately 27.3%. The decrease in the effective income tax rate percentage primarily reflects the changes in taxable income among the Companys three geographic areas, which have different income tax rates.
Net Income. Net income was approximately $53.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and $42.6 million for the same period in 2014 for the reasons set forth above.

Statements of cash flows for entities with international operations that are local currency functional exclude the effects of the changes in foreign currency exchange rates that occur during any given period, as these are non-cash changes. As a result, changes reflected in certain accounts on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows may not reflect the changes in corresponding accounts on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The primary liquidity needs of the Company are (i) to fund capital expenditures to improve and expand facilities and manufacture additional running tools and (ii) to fund working capital. The Companys principal sources of funds have been cash flows from operations.
Net cash provided from operating activities increased $38.5 million for the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014, primarily due to increases in operating assets and liabilities of $29.1 million and net income of $11.0 million.
The change in operating assets and liabilities for the first three months of 2015 primarily reflected a decrease in trade receivables of $62.8 million and an increase in inventory of $7.0 million. Trade receivables primarily decreased due to strong collection efforts. Inventory increased due to higher balances in raw material and work in progress (excluding foreign currency translation) to accommodate the backlog requirements related to long-term projects. Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased by approximately $29.1 million due to a decrease in customer prepayments of $28.2 million.
16
The change in operating assets and liabilities for the first three months of 2014 primarily reflected a decrease in trade receivables of $14.7 million and an increase in inventory of $26.3 million. Trade receivables decreased due to strong collection efforts offset by an increase in unbilled receivables of $7.1 million. Inventory increased due to higher balances in raw material and finished goods to accommodate the higher backlog requirements related to long-term projects. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by approximately $13.1 million due to an increase in customer prepayments of $7.8 million.
Capital expenditures by the Company were $6.2 million and $13.2 million in the first three months of 2015 and 2014, respectively. Capital expenditures in 2015 and 2014 were primarily spent on machinery and equipment. The capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2015 were $5.6 million for machinery and equipment and other expenditures of $600,000. The capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2014 were $1.3 million for facilities, $10.6 million for machinery and equipment and other expenditures of $1.3 million.
The exercise of stock options generated cash to the Company of $282,000 in the first quarter of 2015 as compared to $463,000 in the same period of 2014.
On February 26, 2015, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase plan under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $100 million of its common stock. No repurchases have been made pursuant to the plan. The repurchase program has no expiration date and any repurchased shares are expected to be cancelled.
As of March 31, 2015, the Company has no commercial lending arrangement or lines of credit. The Company believes that cash generated from operations plus cash on hand will be sufficient to fund operations, working capital needs and anticipated capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. However, continued significant declines in hydrocarbon prices, catastrophic events or significant changes in regulations affecting the Company or its customers could have a material adverse effect on the Companys liquidity. Should market conditions result in unexpected cash requirements, the Company believes that borrowing from commercial lending institutions would be available and adequate to meet such requirements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no derivative instruments and no off-balance sheet hedging or financing arrangements, contracts or operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
Refer to the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 for a discussion of its critical accounting policies. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, there were no material changes in the Companys judgments and assumptions associated with the development of its critical accounting policies.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
The Company is currently exposed to certain market risks related to interest rate changes on its short-term investments and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Company does not engage in any material hedging transactions, forward contracts or currency trading which could mitigate the market risks inherent in such transactions. There have been no material changes in market risks for the Company from December 31, 2014.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
Through its subsidiaries, the Company conducts a portion of its business in currencies other than the United States dollar, principally the British pound sterling and the Brazilian real. The Company experienced a foreign currency pre-tax gain of approximately $6.5 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 and a pre-tax loss of $911,000 in the same quarter of 2014. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to protect itself against currency fluctuations in the future. In periods where the dollar is strong as compared to other currencies, it is possible that foreign sales may experience some decline in profits due to changes in exchange rates. The Companys foreign sales have not experienced significant profit declines due to exchange rates to date.
Historically, the Company has not experienced significant transaction gains or losses associated with changes in currency exchange rates and does not anticipate such exposure to be material in the future. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to protect itself against currency fluctuations in the future.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and

procedures were effective as of March 31, 2015 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Companys reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms, and such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
There has been no change in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal controls over financial reporting.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may be deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Statements contained in all parts of this document that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that are beyond the control of Dril-Quip, Inc. (the Company or Dril-Quip). You can identify the Companys forward-looking statements by the words anticipate, estimate, expect, may, project, believe and similar expressions, or by the Companys discussion of strategies or trends. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct. These forward-looking statements include the following types of information and statements as they relate to the Company:
| future operating results and cash flow; |
| scheduled, budgeted and other future capital expenditures; |
| working capital requirements; |
| the availability of expected sources of liquidity; |
| the introduction into the market of the Companys future products; |
| the market for the Companys existing and future products; |
| the Companys ability to develop new applications for its technologies; |
| the exploration, development and production activities of the Companys customers; |
| compliance with present and future environmental regulations and costs associated with environmentally related penalties, capital expenditures, remedial actions and proceedings; |
| effects of pending legal proceedings; |
| changes in customers future product and service requirements that may not be cost effective or within the Companys capabilities; and |
| future operations, financial results, business plans and cash needs. |
18
These statements are based on assumptions and analyses in light of the Companys experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors the Company believes were appropriate in the circumstances when the statements were made. Forward-looking statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected results, and actual future results could differ materially from those described in such statements. While it is not possible to identify all factors, the Company continues to face many risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially are the risks and uncertainties discussed under Item 1A. Risk Factors in Part I of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the following:
| the volatility of oil and natural gas prices; |
| the cyclical nature of the oil and gas industry; |
| uncertainties associated with the United States and worldwide economies; |
| uncertainties regarding political tensions in the Middle East, Africa and elsewhere; |
| current and potential governmental regulatory actions in the United States and regulatory actions and political unrest in other countries; |
| uncertainties regarding future oil and gas exploration and production activities in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico and elsewhere, including new regulations, customs requirements and product testing requirements; |
| operating interruptions (including explosions, fires, weather-related incidents, mechanical failure, unscheduled downtime, labor difficulties, transportation interruptions, spills and releases and other environmental risks); |
| project terminations, suspensions or scope adjustments to contracts reflected in the Companys backlog; |
| the Companys reliance on product development; |
| technological developments; |
| the Companys reliance on third-party technologies; |
| the Companys dependence on key employees and skilled machinists, fabricators and technical personnel; |
| the Companys reliance on sources of raw materials; |
| impact of environmental matters, including future environmental regulations; |
| competitive products and pricing pressures; |
| fluctuations in foreign currency; |
| the ability of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to set and maintain production levels and pricing; |
| the Companys reliance on significant customers; |
| creditworthiness of the Companys customers; |
| fixed-price contracts; |
| changes in general economic, market or business conditions; |
| access to capital markets; |
| negative outcome of litigation, threatened litigation or government proceedings; |
| terrorist threats or acts, war and civil disturbances; and |
| the interpretation of foreign tax laws with respect to our foreign subsidiaries. |
Many of such factors are beyond the Companys ability to control or predict. Any of the factors, or a combination of these factors, could materially affect the Companys future results of operations and the ultimate accuracy of the forward-looking statements. Management cautions against putting undue reliance on forward-looking statements or projecting any future results based on such statements or present or prior earnings levels. Every forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement, and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement.
