EX-99 2 mm7-2706_8ke991.txt EX. 99.1 PRESS RELEASE SEACOR HOLDINGS ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER RESULTS Fort Lauderdale, Florida July 26, 2006 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- SEACOR Holdings Inc. (NYSE:CKH) announced net income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006 of $62.8 million, or $2.24 per diluted share, on operating revenues of $331.0 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, net income was $112.9 million, or $4.04 per diluted share, on operating revenues of $636.9 million. For the second quarter ended June 30, 2005, net income was $25.1 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, on operating revenues of $177.8 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, net income was $43.7 million, or $2.11 per diluted share, on operating revenues of $343.0 million. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 do not include Seabulk International, Inc. which was acquired by the Company on July 1, 2005. For the immediately preceding quarter ended March 31, 2006, the Company reported net income of $50.1 million, or $1.80 per diluted share, on operating revenues of $305.9 million. HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE QUARTER OFFSHORE MARINE SERVICES - Operating income(1) in the second quarter was $70.8 million on operating revenues of $168.3 million compared to operating income of $66.1 million on operating revenues of $159.9 million in the preceding quarter. Second quarter results included $22.5 million in gains on asset dispositions compared to $20.6 million in gains in the preceding quarter. Overall fleet utilization was higher in the second quarter at 86.8% compared to 85.3% in the preceding quarter. In the second quarter the number of days available for charter was lower by 1,114 days, or 4.9% primarily as a result of a reduction in the overall fleet count following asset dispositions. The improvement in operating revenues was primarily driven by an 8.1% improvement in average day rates from $8,006 per day to $8,658 per day. The most significant improvements were in the Gulf of Mexico and West Africa, where average day rates increased by 12.6% and 8.1%, respectively. Operating expenses in the second quarter were $86.7 million, an increase of $7.2 million over the preceding quarter. Of this increase, approximately $3.1 million was related to the cost of chartering-in third party vessels for brokered vessel activity and procuring additional labor to provide cargo handling services. The majority of these charges was offset by additional revenues and thus had minimal impact on operating margins. Other increases related to higher dry-dock and repair expenditures and higher wage rates in response to a competitive labor market for seafarers in all regions. MARINE TRANSPORTATION SERVICES - Operating income in the second quarter was $8.2 million on operating revenues of $37.4 million compared to operating income of $5.1 million on operating revenues of $37.7 million in the preceding quarter. The increase in operating income was primarily due to lower operating expenses. Fuel and port charges were lower in the second quarter as only two vessels operated on voyage charters compared to three in the preceding quarter. There were no dry-dock related costs in the current quarter. INLAND RIVER SERVICES - Operating income in the second quarter was $13.6 million on operating revenues of $36.3 million compared to operating income of $14.8 million on operating revenues of $34.5 million in the preceding quarter. -------- (1) See attached schedule "OPERATING INCOME (LOSS) BY LINE OF BUSINESS" for components of operating income. 1 The improvement in operating revenues was primarily due to additions to the owned fleet of dry hopper and tank barges and favorable operating conditions on the river system through most of the quarter. Operating expenses were higher in the second quarter primarily due to increased towing costs and vendor service charges. These increases were caused by higher fuel and labor costs as well as seasonal operating patterns that resulted in more loadings on the upper Mississippi and thus longer barge voyages. AVIATION SERVICES - Operating income in the second quarter was $3.8 million on operating revenues of $39.9 million compared to an operating loss of $0.3 million on operating revenues of $33.5 million in the preceding quarter. The improvement was primarily due to the resumption of seasonal flight-seeing activity in Alaska, an increase in the amount of lease revenue and the impact of additional equipment to support higher levels of activity in the Gulf of Mexico. Second quarter results included $1.8 million in gains on asset dispositions compared to $0.3 million in gains in the preceding quarter. ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES - Operating income in the second quarter was $4.5 million on operating revenues of $36.9 million compared to operating income of $2.3 million on operating revenues of $27.9 million in the preceding quarter. The improvement in operating income was primarily due to higher revenues from retainer services contracts and an increase in spill response activity. DERIVATIVE TRANSACTIONS - Derivative transactions, primarily consisting of interest rate swaps and foreign currency contracts, resulted in gains of $3.1 million in the second quarter as compared to losses of $2.8 million in the preceding quarter. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS - Foreign currency transaction gains were $1.2 million in the second quarter compared to gains of $0.2 million in the preceding quarter. MARKETABLE SECURITY TRANSACTIONS - Marketable security and short sale transactions resulted in losses of $3.3 million in the second quarter as compared to losses of $3.6 million in the preceding quarter. EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF 50% OR LESS OWNED COMPANIES - Earnings were $6.0 million in the second quarter compared to $6.4 million in the preceding quarter. In the second quarter one of the Company's offshore marine joint ventures sold a vessel to a third party and the Company's share of the gain on the sale was $4.2 million. In the preceding quarter the Company disposed of its interest in a joint venture in Mexico and realized a gain of $4.5 million. WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES OUTSTANDING - Weighted average diluted shares outstanding were 28,568,267 for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 compared to 21,923,636 for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. The increase was mainly due to the issuance of 6,354,642 shares as part of the acquisition of Seabulk International, Inc. CAPITAL COMMITMENTS - The Company's unfunded capital commitments as of June 30, 2006 consisted primarily of marine service vessels, helicopters and barges and totaled $631.7 million, of which $429.7 million is payable in 2006 and 2007, with the remaining balance payable through 2009. Subsequent to the end of the quarter the Company committed to purchase additional equipment for $22.6 million. Of these commitments, approximately $187.8 million may be terminated without further liability other than the payment of liquidated damages of $4.9 million in the aggregate. As of June 30, 2006 the Company held balances of Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Securities, Construction Reserve Funds and Title XI Reserve Funds totaling $803.4 million. * * * * * SEACOR is a global provider of marine support and transportation services, primarily to the energy and chemical industries.
