Owen Kratz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Cal Dive, stated, "It is very satisfying and encouraging to report such strong financial results in a quarter which saw the regulatory drydockings of the Q4000, Seawell and three other vessels. This maintenance activity is now largely behind us for the year and we have good backlogs for most of our fleet in steadily improving market conditions.
"We also completed a significant mature production property transaction during the quarter that should help us meet our production target range for the year.
"Following our better than budgeted start to 2005, we now expect earnings for the year to be in the increased range of $2.80 - $3.20 / share."
Financial Highlights
* Revenues: The $38.8 million increase in year-over-year second quarter
revenues was driven primarily by significant improvements in Marine
Contracting revenues due to improved market conditions, particularly
in both deepwater and shelf subsea construction.
* Margins: 32% (34% before impairment charges) matched the margin of
the year-ago quarter as a significant improvement in subsea
construction margins (improved market conditions) more than offset the
decline in well operations margins (both vessels in regulatory drydock
in 2Q 2005). Oil & gas production margins were down slightly due to
the aforementioned impairment charge.
* SG&A: $12.9 million increased slightly ($200,000) from the same
period a year ago. This level of SG&A was 8% of second quarter
revenues, compared to 10% a year ago.
* Equity in Earnings: $2.7 million reflects our share of Deepwater
Gateway, L.L.C.'s earnings for the quarter. This reflects a 57%
increase from the first quarter due primarily to the early retirement
of debt in the first quarter which resulted in a $600,000 charge, net
to Cal Dive for the write-off of deferred financing costs in the first
quarter and no interest expense beginning in the second quarter.
* Balance Sheet: During the second quarter, the Company acquired for
$196 million ($163 million cash), a package of mature oil and gas
producing properties from Murphy Exploration. Total debt as of
June 30, 2005 was $443 million. This represents 43% debt to book
capitalization and with $279 million of EBITDA for the twelve months
ended June 30, 2005, this represents 1.6 times trailing twelve month
EBITDA. In addition, the Company had $200 million of unrestricted
cash as of June 30, 2005. Subject to regulatory approval, these funds
will be utilized for the previously announced acquisitions of certain
assets of Stolt Offshore and Torch Offshore.
