Our income from equity affiliates for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, was $0.6 million, $64.6 million and $59.8 million, respectively and included within our Subsea segment.

Dofcon Brasil AS (“Dofcon”) - is an affiliated company in the form of a joint venture between TechnipFMC and DOF Subsea and was founded in 2006. Dofcon provides Pipe-Laying Support Vessels (PLSVs) for work in oil and gas fields offshore Brazil. Dofcon is considered a VIE because it does not have sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. We are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. As such, we have accounted for our 50% investment using the equity method of accounting with results reported in our Subsea segment.

Magma Global Limited (“Magma Global”) - In 2018, we entered into a collaboration agreement with Magma Global to develop a new generation of hybrid flexible pipe for use in the traditional and new energy industries. As part of the collaboration, we purchased a 25% ownership interest in Magma Global. In October 2021, we purchased the remaining ownership interest in Magma Global for $64.0 million. See Note 3 for further details.

Serimax Holdings SAS (“Serimax”) - is an affiliated company in the form of a joint venture between TechnipFMC and Vallourec SA and was founded in 2016. Serimax is headquartered in Paris, France and provides rigid pipes welding services for work in oil and gas fields around the world. We have accounted for our 20% investment using the equity method of accounting with results reported in our Subsea segment.

As discussed in Note 2, immediately following the completion of the Spin-off, we owned 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Technip Energies. At the Spin-off date, on initial recognition of the investment, we elected to account for our investment in Technip Energies at fair value with all subsequent changes in fair value for the investment reported in our consolidated statement of income.

On January 7, 2021, Bpifrance Participations SA (“BPI”) entered into the Share Purchase Agreement with us pursuant to which BPI agreed to purchase a portion of our retained stake in Technip Energies N.V. (the “BPI Investment”) for $200.0 million (the “Purchase Price”), subject to certain adjustments. On March 31, 2021, BPI ultimately purchased 7.5 million shares in Technip Energies from us for $100.0 million. Accordingly, on April 8, 2021, we refunded $100.0 million to BPI as a result of their revised level of investment.

On April 27, 2021 we sold 25.0 million Technip Energies shares, representing 14% of Technip Energies’ share capital, through a private placement by way of an accelerated bookbuild offering (the “April Placement”). The sale price of the shares in the April Placement was set at €11.10 per share, yielding total gross proceeds of €277.5 million, or $335.2 million.

Concurrently with the April Placement, Technip Energies purchased from us 1.8 million shares of Technip Energies (equivalent to 1% of share capital) at €11.10 per share, corresponding to the price of the April Placement (the “Concurrent Sale to Technip Energies”). The sale of shares to Technip Energies yielded total gross proceeds of €20.0 million or $24.2 million. This purchase was separate from the April Placement.

On July 29, 2021 we announced the sale of 16.0 million Technip Energies shares, representing approximately 9% of Technip Energies’ issued and outstanding share capital, through a private placement by way of an accelerated bookbuild offering (the “July Placement”). The sale price of the shares in the July Placement was set at €11.20 per share, yielding total gross proceeds of €179.2 million, or $213.1 million. We agreed to a 60-day lock-up for our remaining shares in Technip Energies, subject to waiver from the Joint Global Coordinators and certain other customary exceptions.

On September 2, 2021 we announced the sale of 17.6 million Technip Energies shares, representing approximately 10% of Technip Energies’ issued and outstanding share capital, through a private sale transaction with HAL Investments, the Dutch investment subsidiary of HAL Holding, N.V. (the “September Sale”). The sale price of the shares in the September Sale was set at €11.15 per share, yielding total gross proceeds of €196.2 million, or $231.5 million. The Joint Global Coordinators from the July Placement granted a waiver of the 60-day lock-up solely for the purpose of the September Sale.

The September Sale was completed in two tranches. The first tranche of 8.6 million shares was sold and settled in September for gross proceeds of €96.3 million, or $114.4 million. The second tranche of 9.0 million shares was settled on October 22, 2021 for gross proceeds of €99.9 million, or $116.4 million.

As a result of the reduced ownership interest in Technip Energies and related loss of significant influence, we discontinued the use of equity method of accounting for our interest in Technip Energies. Following the September sale, we account for our remaining ownership interest in Technip Energies as equity security at fair value.

As of December 31, 2021, we retained a direct stake of 21.9 million shares, representing 12.2% of Technip Energies’ issued and outstanding share capital. There is no lock-up associated with our remaining stake in Technip Energies. The carrying amount of our investment in Technip Energies as of December 31, 2021 was $317.3 million.
