1 January 14, 2015 Transocean Ltd. (RIG-NYSE) Current Recommendation Prior Recommendation Underperform Date of Last Change 02/14/2012 Current Price (01/13/15) $15.52 Target Price $16.00 NEUTRAL SUMMARY We are maintaining our Neutral recommendation on Transocean shares, despite the dismal commodity pricing scenario, operational issues and high debt. The company offers an unmatched level of earnings and cash flow visibility, given its technologicallyadvanced and versatile offshore drilling fleet, strong backlog and considerable pricing power. The recent settlement of a host of civil/criminal claims associated with the Deepwater Horizon incident has also eased the overhang on the stock. Nevertheless, we expect Transocean shares to remain soft until oil prices rebound and the company fully works its way through claims related to the BP oil spill.

2 OVERVIEW Switzerland-based Transocean, Inc., with the very appropriate NYSE ticker of RIG, is the world s largest offshore drilling contractor and the leading provider of drilling management services worldwide. As of May 15, 2014, the company owned, or had partial ownership interests in, and operated 78 mobile offshore drilling rigs. Transocean s drilling fleet consists of 46 high-specification deepwater floaters, 21 mid-water floaters, and 11 high specification jackups. Additionally, the company had 9 ultra-deepwater drillships and 5 high-specification jackups under construction or under contract to be constructed. Transocean's fleet is considered to be one of the most modern and versatile in the world due to its emphasis on technically demanding segments of the offshore drilling business. Transocean s fleet can be broadly divided into three distinct groups based on drilling capabilities: highspecification floaters (semi-submersibles and drillships), midwater floaters, and jackup rigs, which accounted for 72%, 18% and 6%, respectively, of its total revenues for The remaining portion related to other rigs, contract intangible revenues, and revenues derived from drilling management services, integrated services, oil and gas properties etc. Following its merger with GlobalSantaFe in November 2007, Transocean operates in 2 business segments (Contract Drilling Services and Other Operations). The Contract Drilling segment includes floaters, jack-ups and other rigs used in support of offshore drilling activities and offshore support services on a worldwide basis, while the Other segment consists of drilling management services and oil & gas properties. Transocean s 47 high-specification floaters are specialized offshore drilling units capable of drilling in water depths of 4,500 feet and more. The company s 21 mid-water floaters are capable of drilling in water depths of approximately 300 feet to 4,500 feet, while the jackup rigs are generally suited for water depths of 400 feet or less.

3 REASONS TO BUY With less oil being discovered on land and companies having to dig ever deeper to get to their reserves, Transocean is poised to benefit from a market with robust multi-year demand trends, given its technologically advanced and versatile drilling fleet. In particular, Transocean is the industry leader in deep sea drilling. The company s state-of-the-art mobile offshore drilling fleets worldwide can function in the most challenging environments, such as the North Sea. Transocean significantly reduced its operating expenses during the last few quarter. Moreover, the company expects its full year operating and maintenance cost in the band of $5.1 $5.2 billion, lower than the $5.8 billion and $6.1 billion reported in 2013 and 2012, respectively. Transocean s strong backlog, which now stands at roughly $24 billion, not only reflects steady demand from its customers but also offers an unmatched level of earnings and cash flow visibility. This enables Transocean to navigate the current uncertain environment better than many of its peers. Transocean s latest annual dividend of $3.00 per share, is 33.9% higher than the year-ago dividend of $2.24. This reflects the company s strong ability to allocate capital for profitable projects that generate significant returns for its shareholders. REASONS TO SELL Transocean derives its revenues from companies in the oil and gas exploration and production industry, a highly volatile and cyclical sector that is directly exposed to commodity prices. As a result, the ongoing slump in oil and gas prices have curtailed deepwater drilling and dampened equipment demand, adversely affecting bookings at Transocean. Following Transocean s acquisition of Norway's Aker Drilling ASA for approximately $2.2 billion including a net debt of $800 million we remain worried about the company s rise in net debt and reduction of liquidity. While Transocean has come a long way since the 2010 Deepwater Horizon rig disaster and settled a host of civil/criminal claims associated with the incident, it can still be held responsible for certain punitive damages and required to pay compensation. Transocean conducts operations in various regions throughout the world, with a substantial portion of its total revenues and earnings coming from international markets. As such, the company is exposed to risks associated with operating in international markets. Such risks include embargoes and/or expropriation of assets, exchange rate risks, terrorism and political/civil sentiment, etc. The introduction of new and more stringent regulations due to the oil spill has made deepwater drilling activity prohibitively expensive for exploration and production companies, making many projects marginal. This could reduce the demand for deepwater drilling. Equity Research RIG Page 3
4 RECENT NEWS Third Quarter 2014 Results On Nov 9, 2014, Transocean reported third-quarter 2014 adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.96, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.77. Improved dayrates and lower expenses drove the outperformance. However, the bottom line deteriorated from the year-ago adjusted profit of $1.37 per share on lower fleet utilization. Quarterly total revenue of $2,270 million beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2,210 million but fell from the year-ago quarter figure of $2,449 million. Transocean's high-spec floaters contributed approximately 71.2% to the total revenue, while mid-water floaters and high-spec jackup rigs accounted for 19.5% and 6.8%, respectively. The remaining revenues came from rig activities, integrated services and others. Operating Statistics Transocean reported operating loss of $2,168 million during the quarter compared with earnings of $738 million in third-quarter A non-cash goodwill impairment loss of $2,768 million hampered the results. Meanwhile, total operating and maintenance expenses decreased about 5% year over year to $1,318 million. Dayrates & Utilization Total average dayrates increased to $409,900 in the quarter under review from $392,400 in the yearearlier quarter. The increase is attributable to higher dayrates from all its assets. Overall fleet utilization was 75%, down from the year-ago utilization rate of 83%. Capital Expenditure & Balance Sheet Capital expenditures during the quarter totaled $365 million. As of Sep 30, 2014, Transocean had cash and cash equivalents of $2,873 million and long-term debt of $9,991 million (representing a debt-to-capitalization ratio of approximately 40%)..

5 VALUATION Transocean projects 2014 operating and maintenance cost between $5.1 billion and $5.2 billion, significantly lower than the 2013 and 2012 levels. We believe that with reduced expenses, the company will be able to improve its full year earnings to a great extent. Nevertheless, we expect Transocean shares to remain soft until commodity prices recover sufficiently and the company fully works its way through claims related to the BP oil spill. These factors are reflected in our continued Neutral recommendation on the shares. Transocean s current trailing 12-month earnings multiple is 3.3X, compared with the 7.3X industry average and 18.6X for the S&P 500. Over the last five years, Transocean s shares have traded in a wide range of 3.9X to 36.3X trailing 12-month earnings. Our $16 price objective reflects a 2015 multiple of 7.2x, well within historical trading ranges. Key Indicators F1 F2 Est. 5-Yr EPS Gr% P/CF 5-Yr High 5-Yr Low Transocean Ltd.
