The ongoing COVID pandemic and its effect on the offshore oil and gas market, combined with sector uncertainty relating to regulatory changes by the new U.S. administration, suggests a year that will maintain the challenges of 2020. Our customers’ spending levels currently remain low, providing even more challenges in a year in which three of our long-term Well Intervention contracts expire. EBITDA We expect our 2021 results to be lower than the $155 million EBITDA we generated in 2020. It is currently difficult to project how much lower as our customers are still working through their budgeting processes to prioritize their spending and determine which projects will be sanctioned and which ones will not. Key expectations for 2021 include the following: • Total backlog at December 31, 2020 of approximately $407 million ($226 million for Well Intervention); $301 million expected to be realized during 2021 • North Sea – Well Intervention to be a two-vessel market during 2021, prioritizing utilization on the Well Enhancer and utilizing the Seawell during seasonal summer period • Brazil – both Siem Helix vessels working for Petrobras throughout 2021 • Production Facilities – Droshky recompletion expected in Q2 • Gulf of Mexico – softer market with expected gaps in schedule • Robotics – intermittent renewables work with expected fewer site clearance days and overall weaker ROV market than 2020 Over the next two months, we expect to gain a better view of 2021 and we hope to be in a better position to quantify EBITDA guidance with our first quarter 2021 earnings release. 21

We define EBITDA as earnings before income taxes, net interest expense, gain or loss on extinguishment of long-term debt, net other income or expense, and depreciation and amortization expense. Non-cash impairment losses on goodwill and other long-lived assets and gains and losses on equity investments are also added back if applicable. To arrive at our measure of Adjusted EBITDA, we exclude the gain or loss on disposition of assets and the general provision for current expected credit losses, if any. In addition, we include realized losses from foreign currency exchange contracts not designated as hedging instruments and other than temporary loss on note receivable, which are excluded from EBITDA as a component of net other income or expense. We define free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sale of assets. We use EBITDA and free cash flow to monitor and facilitate internal evaluation of the performance of our business operations, to facilitate external comparison of our business results to those of others in our industry, to analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future investments and acquisitions, to plan and evaluate operating budgets, and in certain cases, to report our results to the holders of our debt as required by our debt covenants. We believe that our measures of EBITDA and free cash flow provide useful information to the public regarding our operating performance and ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures and may help our investors understand and compare our results to other companies that have different financing, capital and tax structures. Other companies may calculate their measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow differently from the way we do, which may limit their usefulness as comparative measures. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, but instead are supplemental to, income from operations, net income, cash flows from operating activities, or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Users of this financial information should consider the types of events and transactions that are excluded from these measures.

We continue to implement and improve Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) initiatives and disclosures throughout our business. We understand we have an important role to play as a steward of the people, communities and environments we serve, and we regularly look for ways to emphasize and improve our own ESG record. We incorporate ESG initiatives into our core business values and priorities of safety, sustainability and value creation with a top-down approach led by management and our Board of Directors (our “Board”). Specifically, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of our Board oversees, assesses and reviews the disclosure and reporting of any matters, including with respect to climate change, regarding the Company’s business and industry, and that committee's charter formally incorporates oversight of ESG matters as a stated responsibility. We emphasize constant improvement by continually striving to improve our safety record, reducing our environmental impact, and increasing transparency. In 2020, we maintained a low Total Recordable Incident Rate and expanded our business with renewable energy customers. Our efforts are published in our Corporate Sustainability Report and Corporate Sustainability Summary Update, copies of which are available on our website at www.HelixESG.com/about-helix/corporate-sustainability.
