Historical Stock Chart

From Jul 2019 to Jul 2024

McDermott International, Inc. (NYSE:MDR) (�McDermott� or the �Company�) today reported net income of $160.0 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, for the 2007 fourth quarter, compared to net income of $125.5 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, for the corresponding period in 2006. As disclosed a year ago, fourth quarter 2006 net income benefited by approximately $57.2 million, net from certain identified items. This net benefit for the fourth quarter of 2006 was subsequently reduced by approximately $16 million as a result of a required accounting pronouncement adopted in 2007. Weighted average common shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis were approximately 229.8 million and 228.7 million in the quarters ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. For 2006, the Company�s common shares outstanding and earnings per share are adjusted to reflect the 2-for-1 stock split effected in September 2007. McDermott�s revenues in the fourth quarter of 2007 were $1,526.0 million, an increase of 16.7 percent compared to $1,308.0 million in the corresponding period in 2006. The $218 million improvement in Company revenues, compared to a year ago, was a result of the Offshore Oil & Gas Construction segment which increased revenues by approximately $257 million, or 54.1 percent. Operating income was $186.8 million in the 2007 fourth quarter, an improvement of 115.2 percent, compared to $86.8 million in the 2006 fourth quarter. The $100 million increase in operating income is attributable to heightened year-over-year increases in each of the Company�s operating segments. �McDermott completed a record-setting, full-year 2007 with strong fourth quarter results,� said Bruce W. Wilkinson, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of McDermott. �The Company reported its highest quarterly level of net income of the year, and our recorded bookings of over $2 billion resulted in the fourth consecutive quarter of sequential backlog growth.� At December 31, 2007, McDermott�s consolidated backlog was $9.8 billion, compared to $7.6 billion and $9.3 billion at December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2007, respectively. For the year-ended December 31, 2007, McDermott reported consolidated revenues of $5.6 billion, producing operating income of $716.2 million and net income of $607.8 million, or $2.66 per diluted share. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 2007 Fourth Quarter Compared to 2006 Fourth Quarter Offshore Oil & Gas Construction Segment Revenues in the Offshore Oil & Gas Construction segment were $733.3 million in the 2007 fourth quarter, compared to $475.9 million for the same period a year ago. The year-over-year increase in revenues resulted from a higher workload in worldwide marine activities, including revenues from Secunda International Limited whose assets were acquired in July 2007, and from increased activities within the Caspian, Middle East and Americas regions. Segment income for the 2007 fourth quarter was $100.0 million, compared to $49.1 million in the 2006 fourth quarter. Major areas contributing to fourth quarter 2007 segment income include activities in the Caspian, Middle East and Asia Pacific regions. At December 31, 2007, segment backlog was $4.8 billion, compared to backlog of $4.1 billion and $4.9 billion at December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2007, respectively. Power Generation Systems Segment Revenues in the Power Generation Systems segment for the fourth quarter 2007 were $608.0 million, compared to $676.8 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2006. The year-over-year reduction in revenues resulted from lower activities on new fossil utility steam systems and retrofits of existing facilities compared to a year ago, partially offset by higher levels of replacement parts and increased activity on nuclear steam generators. Segment income for the 2007 fourth quarter was $65.9 million, compared to $24.9 million in the 2006 fourth quarter. Major areas contributing to fourth quarter 2007 segment income include utility steam system fabrication, replacement nuclear steam generators, industrial boilers and parts and service activities. In the 2006 fourth quarter, the Company recorded approximately $27 million in previously announced settlement, insurance and warranty charges. At December 31, 2007, segment backlog was $3.3 billion, compared to backlog of $2.2 billion and $3.0 billion at December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2007, respectively. Government Operations Segment Revenues in the Government Operations segment were $187.7 million in the 2007 fourth quarter, compared to $158.3 million for the same period a year ago. The improvement was primarily due to higher volumes in the manufacture of nuclear components for certain U.S. Government programs, including revenues from Marine Mechanical Corporation which was acquired in April 2007. Segment income for the 2007 fourth quarter was $33.3 million, compared to $19.9 million in the 2006 fourth quarter. Major items contributing to the fourth quarter 2007 segment income include the manufacture of nuclear components for certain U.S. Government programs and the management and operations of various U.S. Government sites. At December 31, 2007, segment backlog was $1.8 billion, compared to backlog of $1.3 billion and $1.4 billion at December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2007, respectively. Corporate Unallocated corporate expenses were $12.4 million in the 2007 fourth quarter, compared to $7.0 million in the 2006 fourth quarter. The year-over-year increase was primarily related to increased general corporate expenses, including higher stock-based compensation expenses due to McDermott�s 9.2 percent stock price increase during the fourth quarter of 2007. Other Income and Expense The Company�s other income for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $7.3 million, compared to other expense of $4.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The year-over-year improvement was primarily related to lower interest expense and the loss on early retirement of debt incurred during the fourth quarter of 2006.

Forward-Looking Statements In accordance with the Safe Harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, McDermott cautions that statements in this press release, which are forward-looking and provide other than historical information, involve risks and uncertainties that may impact the Company�s actual results of operations. These forward-looking statements include statements about backlog, to the extent backlog may be viewed as an indicator of future revenues. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that those expectations will prove to have been correct. Those statements are made by using various underlying assumptions and are subject to numerous uncertainties and risks, including, but not limited to, adverse changes in the markets in which we operate, our inability to successfully execute on contracts in backlog or that awards and contracts in backlog may not otherwise result in the expected revenues. If one or more of these risks materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those expected. For a more complete discussion of these and other risk factors, please see McDermott�s annual and quarterly filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
