Results of Operations and Financial Condition
|
Diamond Offshore Drilling, Inc. (the
Company) is furnishing this Current Report on Form
8-K/A
as Amendment No. 1 to its Current Report on Form
8-K
furnished to the Securities and Exchange
Commission on February 6, 2017. The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 is to announce a revision to its preliminary financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2016.
On February 13, 2017, the Company issued a press release announcing a revision to its previously-announced earnings for the quarter and
year ended December 31, 2016. As it was completing its
year-end
financial reporting process, the Company discovered that its liability for uncertain tax positions in certain foreign jurisdictions did not
appropriately reflect changes in foreign exchange rates. The majority of the impact was related to the devaluation of the Egyptian Pound, primarily in the fourth quarter of 2016. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
Management is evaluating the impact of the foregoing with respect to the Companys internal control over financial reporting and
potential remedial actions.
The information contained in Item 2.02 and Exhibit 99.1 to this Amendment No. 1 shall not be deemed
filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any previous or future registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
unless specifically identified therein as being incorporated by reference.
