The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed consolidated financial statements. PETROLEUM HELICOPTERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1998 AND 1997 (Unaudited) (1) General The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Form 10-Q instructions of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") from the books and records of Petroleum Helicopters, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("PHI" or the "Company"). In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal, recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial results for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations of the SEC; however, the Company believes that this information is fairly presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 1998 and the accompanying notes and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's financial statements in order to conform to the classifications adopted for reporting in fiscal 1999. These reclassifications had no impact on net income or shareholders' equity. The Company's financial results, particularly as it relates to its domestic oil and gas operations, are influenced by seasonal fluctuations. During the winter, there are more days of adverse weather conditions and fewer hours of daylight than the other months of the year. Consequently, flight hours are generally lower during the Company's third fiscal quarter than at other times of the year. This produces a seasonal aspect to the Company's business and typically results in reduced revenues from operations during those months. Therefore, the results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. (2) Commitments and Contingencies On Monday, June 2, 1997, the Company was notified by the National Mediation Board ("NMB") that the Office and Professional Employees International Union ("OPEIU") filed an application to represent flight deck crew members (helicopter pilots) of PHI. On September 4, 1997, the NMB reported that the Company's helicopter pilots voted to reject union representation. The OPEIU filed objections with the NMB seeking a new election. This reelection request was granted on January 30, 1998. On March 31, 1998, the NMB reported that the Company's helicopter pilots voted to again reject union representation. On April 2, 1998, the OPEIU filed objections with the NMB to set aside the results of the rerun election. The objections are currently being evaluated by the NMB. Should the Company's domestic pilots elect to be represented by a union, the Company believes that this would place the Company at a competitive disadvantage which could have an adverse effect on the Company's revenues and results of operations. (3) Comprehensive Income In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("FAS 130"), "Reporting Comprehensive Income." FAS 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. The Company adopted this standard in the quarter ended July 31, 1998. Such adoption had no effect on the Company's financial statement presentation as the Company has no items of other comprehensive income. (4) Earnings Per Share In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("FAS 128"), "Earnings Per Share," effective for the periods ending after December 15, 1997. FAS 128 changes the computation and presentation requirements for earnings per share for entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock. Under such requirements, the Company is required to present both basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner as basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that could have been outstanding assuming the exercise of stock options and the potential shares that would have a dilutive effect on earnings per share. The Company adopted FAS 128 effective with the quarter ended January 31, 1998 on a retroactive basis, accordingly, earnings per share amounts have been restated to conform to the requirements of FAS 128. (5) Accounting for Computer Software In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position (SOP) No. 98- 1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use," which establishes criteria for when these types of costs should be expensed as incurred or capitalized. SOP 98-1 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998, earlier adoption is permitted in fiscal years for which annual financial statements have not been issued. The Company has implemented SOP 98-1 on a prospective basis as of May 1, 1998 resulting in approximately $ 0.5 million of costs being capitalized that would have been expensed under the Company's previous accounting method for such costs. This increased net income by $0.3 million or $0.05 per diluted share. (6) New Accounting Pronouncements In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 ("FAS 131"), "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." FAS 131 establishes standards for the way that a public enterprise reports information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. FAS 131 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997 and requires restatement of earlier periods presented. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of FAS 131. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (FAS 133). The Statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999 and establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. FAS 133 requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are to be recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is designated as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is, the type of hedge transaction. Earlier application of the provisions of the Statement is encouraged and is permitted as of the beginning of any fiscal quarter that begins after the issuance of the Statement. The Company believes that, due to its current limited use of derivative instruments, adoption of the Statement will not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position, or liquidity. Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Company is engaged in providing helicopter transportation and related services. The predominant portion of its revenue is derived from transporting offshore oil and gas production and drilling workers on a worldwide basis. The Company also performs helicopter transportation services for a variety of hospital and medical programs and aircraft maintenance to outside parties. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and with the financial statements for the year ended April 30, 1998 together with the related notes and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Revenues The Company generates flight revenues from both ongoing service contracts with established customers and non- contract flights referred to as Specials. Oil and Gas Aviation Services Unit contracts, both domestic and international, are generally on a month to month basis and consist of a fixed fee plus an hourly charge for actual flight time. Specials are customer flights, primarily domestic oil and gas, provided on an as needed basis that are not provided pursuant to ongoing contracts and which generally carry higher rates. The Company's technical service contracts are generally provided on an actual cost plus negotiated mark-up basis. Aeromedical contracts also provide for fixed and hourly charges, but are generally for longer terms and impose early cancellation fees to encourage customers to fulfill the contract term and cover the Company's additional up-front costs in the event of early termination. Air Evac, which operates in Arizona, primarily derives its revenues from third party payors based on per hour or per seat charges. These contracts are predominantly short-term in nature. The following table summarizes and compares the Company's operating revenues by unit for the quarters ended July 31, 1998 and 1997:
Operating Revenues for the Quarter Ended July 31, ------------------------------------------------- (Thousands of dollars, except percentages and flight hours) Increase (Decrease) ------- -------- ----------------------- 1998 1997 $ % Oil and Gas Aviation Services Unit $ 50,317 $ 47,629 $ 2,688 6 Aeromedical Services Unit 11,741 7,897 3,844 49 Other 162 388 (226) (58) ------- ------- ------- ----- Total Operating Revenues $ 62,220 $ 55,914 $ 6,306 11 ------- ------- ------- ----- ------- ------- ------- ----- Total Flight Hours 63,320 67,114 (3,794) (6) ------- ------- ------- ----- ------- ------- ------- -----
Fiscal year 1998 first quarter earnings were adversely impacted by flood damage caused by Hurricane Danny to twenty- six aircraft located at one of the Company's field bases. The approximate effect of this damage was $ 0.05 per share and primarily relates to the incremental effect of lost revenue. All but one of these aircraft are back in service. Oil and Gas Aviation Services Unit Oil and Gas revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 1998 increased 6% to $ 50.3 million from $ 47.6 million. Flight hours declined 7% to 56,419 hours from 60,817 hours for the quarter ended July 31, 1998, due primarily to decreased activity in the Gulf of Mexico. The increase in revenues is primarily attributable to a rate increase which occurred in the third quarter of fiscal 1998. The effect of this rate increase for the quarter ended July 31, 1998 was approximately $ 3.1 million. Aeromedical Services Unit Aeromedical revenues increased to $ 11.7 million, or 49%, from $ 7.9 million. Total Aeromedical programs and aircraft as of July 31, 1998 were fifteen and forty-three, respectively, including the recently acquired aircraft through the acquisition of Samaritan AirEvac on December 31, 1997, versus fourteen Aeromedical programs and thirty-seven aircraft at July 31, 1997. Aeromedical flight hours for the quarter increased 1,227 hours to 5,935 hours. Of the increase in flight hours and revenues, Air Evac accounted for 791 hours and $ 5.6 million, respectively. Direct Expenses Direct expenses increased $ 5.1 million, or 11%, to $53.4 million primarily as a result of the addition of Air Evac ($ 4.7 million). Direct expenses as a percentage of operating revenues remained relatively constant with the Company maintaining an operating margin of 14%. Human Resource costs including employee benefit costs, increased $ 4.2 million, or 22%, to $ 23.2 million. Salary expense increased by $ 3.4 million due to wage increases effective January 1, 1998, the addition of approximately 200 employees with the purchase of Air Evac and a new pay plan implemented in February. The Company's gain sharing program expense was $ 0.3 million higher than the previous year period due to increased earnings. In addition, other employee benefit costs, including medical insurance, increased $ 0.4 million primarily due to an increase in premiums. Spare parts usage and repairs and maintenance costs declined $ 0.6 million, or 5%, to $ 11.2 million. Aircraft depreciation increased $ 0.7 million, or 26%, to $ 3.4 million due to the purchase of additional aircraft and equipment. The Company acquired three aircraft subsequent to July 31, 1998 and six aircraft ascribable to the Air Evac acquisition in the third quarter of fiscal year 1998. The Company acquired five aircraft during fiscal year 1999. Helicopter rental expense increased $ 0.3 million, or 9%, to $ 3.8 million due to the addition of several leased aircraft. There were eighty-eight leased aircraft as of July 31, 1998 as compared to seventy-nine at July 31, 1997. All other aircraft costs increased $ 0.2 million, or 2%, to $ 9.5 million. Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $ 0.3 million, or 8% to $ 4.2 million. Of this increase, $0.4 million was related to legal and other business consulting fees. Offsetting this increase was a decline in computer software costs which were capitalized in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 versus expensed in the prior year's comparable quarter. The Company implemented SOP 98-1 during this quarter resulting in approximately $0.5 million of costs being capitalized. Interest Expense Interest expense increased $ 0.3 million, or 23%, to $1.4 million. This was primarily related to the increase in the Company's long-term debt. Average long-term debt increased $ 12.8 million over the prior year's first quarter. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The following is a comparison of the first quarter of the fiscal year ending April 30, 1999 with the year ended April 30, 1998. The Company's cash position as of July 31, 1998 was $1.2 million compared to $ 2.8 million at April 30, 1998,the Company's fiscal year end. Working capital increased $ 1.2 million from $ 48.0 million at fiscal year end to $ 49.2 million. Total long-term debt increased $ 9.1 million to $ 81.7 million as a result of the investing activities described below. The Company's current debt obligation totals $ 5.8 million, payable in equal quarterly installments, which the Company intends to pay with cash flow from operations. At September 1, 1998, the Company had $ 5.0 million of credit capacity available under its credit facilities. The Company believes its cash flow from operations in conjunction with its credit capacity is sufficient to meet its planned requirements for the foreseeable future. The Company is in compliance with the provisions of its loan agreements. Cash provided by operating activities was $ 1.4 million. Investing activities included the purchase and completion of five aircraft, aircraft improvements, and engines for $ 13.2 million. Investing activities were primarily funded through increased borrowings under the Company's credit facilities. The Company also paid dividends of $ 0.05 per share during the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The Company continues to review selected domestic bases for possible fuel contamination resulting from routine flight operations. The Company has expensed, including provisions for environmental costs, $ 0.1 million for the three months ended July 31, 1998 as compared to $ 0.3 million for the comparable period in fiscal year 1998. The aggregate liability recorded for environmental related costs at July 31, 1998 is $ 1.7 million which the Company believes is adequate for probable and estimable environmental costs. The Company will make additional provisions in future periods to the extent appropriate as further information regarding these costs becomes available. The Company has considered the impact of Year 2000 issues on its computer systems and applications. A committee consisting of members of senior management from various disciplines within the Company has been formed and is meeting regularly to discuss and outline the appropriate course of action that must be taken to deal with any potential Year 2000 issues. A compliance plan has been developed and conversion activities are in process in conjunction with the current information systems upgrades and is expected to be completed and tested in 1998. The Company has committed to purchase software and upgrade its hardware to address the Year 2000 issues. Management does not expect that this project will have a significant effect on the Company's operations primarily due to the significant expenditures for new information technology systems during fiscal 1998 and 1997. The Company is currently undertaking an inventory of all equipment used in the transmission and reception of all signals to identify items that need to be upgraded or replaced. Additionally, the Company is currently evaluating its position with significant suppliers, lenders, large customers and others to ensure that those parties have appropriate plans to address Year 2000 issues where they may otherwise impact the operations of the Company. The Company does not have any significant suppliers, lenders and/or large customers that directly interface with the Company's information technology systems. There is no guarantee that the systems of the Company's suppliers and customers will be Year 2000 compliant in time or that any such non-compliance will not have an adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operaitons. Concurrent with the Company's efforts to correct Year 2000 issues, the Company is in the process of developing appropriate contingency plans to help prevent the Company's operations from being materially impacted by a failure to correct a Year 2000 problem.
