HOUSTON, March 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Dresser-Rand Group Inc. ("Dresser-Rand" or the "Company") (NYSE: DRC), a global supplier of rotating equipment and aftermarket parts and services, reported unaudited net income of $78.8 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, which includes $23.6 million of non-cash, compensation expense and an $11.8 million curtailment gain. The net effect of the compensation expense and curtailment gain reduced 2006 earnings by $0.19 per share. This compares to 2005 net income of $37.1 million, or $0.56 per diluted share. Revenues for the year 2006 of $1,501.5 million compare to $1,208.2 million for 2005, an increase of approximately 24%. Operating income for the year 2006 increased 52% to $176.3 million compared to $116.1 million for 2005. The improvement was due to higher volume, improved price realizations and operating productivity. Bookings for the year were $1,838.9 million and the backlog at the end of December 2006 was $1,267.4 million, 43% higher than the year ago level. Vincent R. Volpe, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of Dresser-Rand, said, "2006 was a year of record performance. Revenues increased 24%, operating income increased over 50% and our year-end backlog was at a record level. As we enter 2007, we believe we're well-positioned to benefit from the continued strength in the markets we serve." For the fourth quarter of 2006, net income was $32.8 million, or $0.38 per diluted share. This compares to net income of $32.2 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter 2005. Fourth quarter 2006 net income was reduced by a pre-tax and after-tax, non-cash stock compensation expense of approximately $6.7 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in connection with the recent sale of the Company's common stock by D-R Interholding, LLC, an affiliate of First Reserve Corporation. This compensation expense, which is not tax deductible, resulted from the vesting of "exit units" held by certain members of management. Additionally, the Company incurred transaction-related expenses of approximately $1.0 million (pre-tax) or $0.01 per diluted share. Revenues for the fourth quarter 2006 of $475.7 million were 31% higher than the corresponding period a year ago. Total operating income increased to $70.4 million for the fourth quarter 2006 compared to $50.8 million for the corresponding quarter of 2005. Fourth quarter 2006 operating income improved from the corresponding quarter of 2005 due to higher volume, improved price realizations and operating productivity. New Units Revenues in the new units segment of $248.6 million for the fourth quarter 2006 increased $71.0 million from the corresponding period in 2005. For the year 2006, revenues of $749.6 million increased $173.0 million, or 30%, compared to revenues for the year 2005. Continued strength in worldwide demand for rotating equipment was the principal reason for the increase in revenues. Segment operating income was $22.6 million for the fourth quarter 2006 compared $16.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. This segment's operating margin of 9.1% for the fourth quarter 2006 was the same as the corresponding quarter of 2005 as a less favorable project mix was offset by higher price realizations and the benefits of volume leverage on fixed costs. Bookings in the quarter ended December 31, 2006 were $327.4 million, 53% higher than bookings in the corresponding quarter in 2005. Bookings in the year 2006 of $1002.3 million were 30% greater than 2005. The backlog at December 31, 2006 was $981.8 million, or 43% above the $688.1 million backlog at December 31, 2005. This increase was due to continuing strong worldwide demand for rotating equipment. Aftermarket Parts and Services Revenues in the aftermarket segment of $227.1 million for the fourth quarter 2006 increased $42.7 million compared to the corresponding quarter in 2005, primarily from higher parts and repair sales. For the year 2006, revenues of $751.9 million increased $120.3 million, or 19%, compared to revenues for the year 2005 of $631.6 million. Segment operating income increased 51% to $72.6 million for the fourth quarter 2006 compared to $48.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. This segment's operating margin was 31.9% compared to 26.1% for the fourth quarter of 2005. The improvement was primarily due to higher price realizations and the benefits of volume leverage on fixed costs. Bookings in the quarter ended December 31, 2006 were $228.8 million, 16% above bookings in the fourth quarter of 2005. Bookings in the year 2006 of $836.6 million were 24% ahead of 2005. Backlog at December 31, 2006 was $285.6 million, or 45% above the $196.6 million backlog at December 31, 2005. Provision for Income Taxes The provision for income taxes was $28.7 million and $58.6 million for the quarter and the year ended December 31, 2006, respectively. The effective tax rates for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2006 of 46.7% and 42.6%, respectively, were higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate. The fourth quarter rate was higher primarily because of the non-tax deductible, stock-based compensation expense recognized of approximately $6.7 million resulting from the vesting of exit units and adjustments to certain foreign income taxes. The year 2006 rate was higher because of the year's total expense for exit units of $23.6 million and the fourth quarter adjustment to foreign taxes. In addition, the company recorded a valuation allowance at one of its foreign subsidiaries earlier in the year because that subsidiary's accumulated losses and related net operating loss carryforward caused management to conclude that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax asset would not be realized. The provision for income taxes was $4.9 million and $15.5 million for the quarter and the year ended December 31, 2005, respectively. The effective tax rates for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2005 of 13.2% and 29.4%, respectively, were substantially lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate. This occurred principally because our income exclusion available for export sales from the U.S. was significantly larger than previously estimated. Liquidity and Capital Resources As of December 31, 2006, cash and cash equivalents totaled $146.8 million and borrowing availability under the $350.0 million revolving credit portion of the Company's senior credit facility was $147.1 million, as $202.9 million was used for outstanding letters of credit. For the quarter ended December 31, 2006, net cash provided by operating activities was $72.0 million, which compared to $(9.0) million used in the corresponding quarter in 2005. The increase of $81.0 million was principally from higher net income and favorable changes in net working capital. During the fourth quarter 2006, capital expenditures totaled $6.7 million. This compares to $4.8 million in the corresponding period last year. In 2006, cash provided by operating activities was $164.1 million compared to $212.4 million for the year 2005. The decrease of $48.3 million was principally the result of unfavorable changes in working capital (higher accounts receivable and inventories), partially offset by improved operating results. Additionally, in 2005, $30.5 million was collected from Ingersoll Rand as part of the settlement of the working capital adjustment from the Acquisition. As a result of strong cash flows in 2006, the Company funded capital expenditures of $19.7 million and repaid $100 million of borrowings under its senior secured credit facility. As of December 31, 2006, total debt, net of cash and equivalents, was $358.8 million. In January 2007, the Company prepaid $50.0 million of its senior secured credit facility. As a result, annual interest expense will be lower by approximately $3.6 million in 2007 and a $0.9 million pre-tax, non-cash charge relating to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs will be recorded in the first quarter 2007. Outlook Worldwide markets for oil and gas products continue to be strong. Demand for the Company's products and services remain at historically high levels and many of its major clients have announced higher capital expenditure budgets for 2007. The Company currently expects its 2007 operating income to be in the range of $250 to $270 million and its first quarter 2007 operating income to be in the range of 12% to 14% of the total year. The Company expects its full year 2007 earnings per share to be in the range of $1.52 to $1.73. This assumes interest expense in the range of $42 to $44 million and an effective tax rate in the range of 35 to 37 percent.
