EX-99.1 2 a4946258ex99.txt EXHIBIT 99.1 PRESS RELEASE Exhibit 99.1 McDermott Reports Second Quarter 2005 Results; Net Income of $80.9 million, $1.12 per diluted share, includes $50.4 million benefit from increased net deferred tax assets and B&W settlement revaluation expense of $7.4 million after tax NEW ORLEANS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 4, 2005--McDermott International, Inc. (NYSE:MDR) ("McDermott" or the "Company") today reported net income of $80.9 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, for the 2005 second quarter, compared to net income of $11.8 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the corresponding period in 2004. Weighted average common shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis were approximately 72.2 million and 67.5 million for June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively. The second quarter 2005 results referenced above includes two items which McDermott does not believe represents customary business operations: a $50.4 million benefit from decreasing the valuation allowance associated with McDermott's deferred tax assets and an expense of $7.4 million after-tax from the revaluation of the liability associated with The Babcock & Wilcox Company's ("B&W") Chapter 11 settlement. Excluding these two items, McDermott's Non-GAAP net income was $38.0 million, or $0.53 per fully diluted share. In comparison, McDermott's second quarter 2004 Non-GAAP net income was $15.8 million, or $0.23 per fully diluted share. Please see the table titled "McDermott's Non-GAAP Earnings Reconciliation" below for the reconciliation between McDermott's reported net income prepared in accordance with GAAP and the Non-GAAP net income and net income per share amounts stated above. Revenues in the second quarter of 2005 were $515.1 million, compared to $499.8 million in the corresponding period in 2004. Operating income was $54.8 million in the 2005 second quarter, compared to $35.7 million in the 2004 second quarter. The second quarter 2005 operating income included approximately $0.2 million of corporate qualified pension expense, compared to $15.8 million in the second quarter 2004. The year-over-year reduction in corporate qualified pension expense reflects the previously announced spin-off of the B&W pension plan and related expense which was completed on January 31, 2005. In addition, beginning January 1, 2005, McDermott now allocates to its Government Operations segment the pension expense related to that segment. "McDermott produced strong results in the second quarter of 2005," said Bruce W. Wilkinson, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of McDermott. "Our businesses performed very well, and were aided in particular by J. Ray's marine operations as well as some timing benefits, including certain contract close-outs and settlements. There continues to be strong bidding activity occurring in most regions for J. Ray, and site management opportunities for BWXT, and we remain confident that we will convert some of these bids into backlog in the near future." RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 2005 Second Quarter Compared to 2004 Second Quarter Marine Construction Services Segment ("J. Ray") Revenues in the Marine Construction Services segment were $355.2 million in the 2005 second quarter, compared to $359.3 million for the same period a year ago. The slight year-over-year reduction in revenues resulted primarily from the 2004 completion of several large EPIC projects and decreased fabrication activity on projects in Morgan City, Louisiana, partially offset by increased revenues from the worldwide marine division and fabrication projects in the Middle East region. Segment income for the 2005 second quarter was $30.9 million, compared to $22.1 million in the 2004 second quarter. Major items contributing to operating income in the 2005 second quarter were projects in the Middle East and Caspian regions, and international marine projects. In addition, J. Ray recorded a net benefit of approximately $9.2 million to operating income from other items including certain contract close-outs and settlements. The 2004 second quarter included a net benefit of $12.7 million, in aggregate, from favorable contract cost adjustments and other items. At June 30, 2005, J. Ray's backlog was $0.9 billion, compared to backlog of $1.2 billion and $1.1 billion at December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004, respectively. Government Operations Segment ("BWXT") Revenues in the Government Operations segment increased $19.4 million, to $159.9 million, in the 2005 second quarter, compared to $140.5 million for the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily due to higher volumes in the manufacture of nuclear components for certain U.S. government programs, and increased revenues from commercial nuclear environmental services and other commercial work, including increased uranium downblending activity. Segment income decreased $2.2 million, to $29.7 million, compared to the 2004 second quarter, primarily due to the corporate allocation to BWXT related to qualified pension expense of $5.3 million in the second quarter 2005, which in 2004 and prior periods was recorded in the corporate segment. The pension allocation was partially offset by higher volume and margins from the manufacture of nuclear components for certain U.S. government programs and increased commercial nuclear activity. At June 30, 2005, BWXT's backlog was $1.6 billion, compared to backlog of $1.7 billion and $1.6 billion at December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004, respectively. Corporate Unallocated corporate expenses were $6.1 million in the 2005 second quarter, a decrease of $13.9 million compared to the 2004 second quarter. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in qualified corporate pension expense during the second quarter of 2005 as a result of the BWXT pension allocation and the spin-off of B&W's pension assets and liabilities into a new B&W-sponsored pension plan. Other Income and Expense The Company's other expense for the second quarter of 2005 was $7.3 million, compared to $10.8 million in the second quarter of 2004, which included net interest expense of $3.4 million and $7.3 million in the respective quarters. During the 2005 second quarter, revaluation of certain components of the estimated settlement cost related to the B&W Chapter 11 proceedings generated an increase in the estimated cost of the settlement to $146.7 million, resulting in the recognition of other pretax expense of $6.4 million ($7.4 million after tax). The increase in the second quarter 2005 estimated settlement cost is due primarily to an increase in the closing price of McDermott's common stock from $18.93 per share at March 31, 2005, to $21.00 per share at June 30, 2005. In the second quarter of 2004, the revaluation of the estimated B&W settlement cost resulted in the recognition of other pretax expense of $4.4 million ($4.0 million after tax). As discussed in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company is required to revalue certain components of the estimated settlement cost quarterly and at the time the securities are issued, assuming the settlement is finalized. THE BABCOCK & WILCOX COMPANY The Company wrote off its remaining investment in B&W of $224.7 million during the second quarter of 2002 and has not consolidated B&W with McDermott's financial results since B&W's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing in February 2000. B&W's revenues were $368.9 million in the second quarter of 2005, an increase of $11.6 million compared to the second quarter of 2004. Operating income for the second quarter of 2005 and 2004 was $10.8 million and $32.7 million, in the respective periods. During the second quarter of 2005, B&W recorded approximately $6.8 million of pension expense, which in prior years resided in the corporate segment, and also recorded an expense for its asbestos liability of $9.7 million, compared to a $3.0 million expense in the second quarter of 2004. At June 30, 2005, B&W's backlog was $1.5 billion, compared to backlog of $1.5 billion and $1.1 billion at December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004, respectively. LIQUIDITY At June 30, 2005, McDermott's consolidated unrestricted cash balance was approximately $261 million, with J. Ray representing approximately $184 million of this total. In addition, McDermott's consolidated restricted cash balance was approximately $164 million at June 30, 2005, with J. Ray representing $133 million of the consolidated amount. In accordance with the indenture relating to J. Ray's senior secured notes issued in December 2003, commencing July 15, 2005, J. Ray announced an offer to purchase at par up to $36.5 million of its senior secured notes. The source of funds to purchase any properly tendered notes will be the remaining restricted cash available from certain asset sales, which previously was available for use on capital expenditures. As of July 26, 2005, the Company's unrestricted liquidity had improved approximately $40 million from the June 30, 2005 amounts, as a result of increased liquidity at J. Ray.

The non-GAAP measures are based upon our unaudited consolidated statements of operations for the periods shown, with certain adjustments. McDermott is providing the non-GAAP information to supplement the results provided in accordance with GAAP and it should not be considered superior to, or as a substitute for, the comparable GAAP measures. However, McDermott believes certain non-GAAP measures provide meaningful insight into the Company's ongoing operational performance and therefore uses the non-GAAP information internally to evaluate McDermott's operations for purposes of budget planning and performance goals. McDermott has chosen to provide this supplemental non-GAAP information to investors to enable them to perform additional comparisons of operating results and as a means to emphasize the results of ongoing operations absent income and expenses considered by management to be outside the Company's customary business.
