HOUSTON, Aug. 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hercules Offshore, Inc. (Nasdaq: HERO) today reported a loss from continuing operations of $19.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, on revenues of $165.9 million for the second quarter 2010, compared with a loss from continuing operations of $7.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, on revenues of $183.7 million for the second quarter 2009, excluding the effects of non-recurring items.

The second quarter 2009 results include a non-cash charge of $26.9 million to reflect the impairment of the Hercules 110, which was subsequently sold in the third quarter 2009, and a $13.7 million gain on the retirement of $65.8 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.375% Convertible Senior Notes, net of the related write-off of unamortized issuance cost. On an after-tax basis, these adjustments approximated $4.2 million, or $0.04 per diluted share. When including the effect of non-recurring items, the Company reported a loss from continuing operations of $11.8 million, or $0.13 per diluted share for the second quarter 2009.

John T. Rynd, Chief Executive Officer and President of Hercules Offshore stated, "The uncertainties surrounding the drilling permit approval process had only modest impact to our Domestic Offshore segment's second quarter financial results. We continue to benefit from the stable cash flow generated by our International Offshore segment during the quarter, and performance at our Domestic Liftboat and Delta Towing segments were positively impacted by the incremental demand related to spill remediation activities in the Gulf of Mexico."

"Looking ahead, a continuation of the slowdown in issuance of new drilling permits by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation, and Enforcement ("BOEMRE") will affect our third quarter results, as many of our jackup rigs in the Gulf of Mexico have already completed, or are scheduled to complete, their contracts within the quarter, and will go idle if operators cannot obtain new permits. In the meantime, we are continuing to work diligently with our customers to comply with the new regulations issued by the BOEMRE. As these requirements are met and permit approvals return to a normal pace, we are hopeful that backlog of shallow water drilling work will build to levels achieved earlier in the year."

Offshore

Domestic Offshore revenues decreased to $34.1 million in the second quarter 2010 from $37.0 million for the comparable period in 2009. This decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in average revenue per rig per day to $35,345 in the second quarter 2010 from $52,365 in the second quarter 2009, as a result of the industry wide downturn that pressured dayrates throughout 2009, partially offset by an increase in utilization to 90.1% in the second quarter 2010 compared to 62.1% in the second quarter 2009. Operating expenses declined approximately $3.5 million, or 9%, to $37.2 million in the second quarter 2010 from $40.7 million in the comparable 2009 period, as the second quarter 2010 included a gain of $3.1 million on the sale of one of the Company's retired jackups. Domestic Offshore recorded an operating loss of $20.5 million for the second quarter 2010 compared to an operating loss of $20.2 million for the second quarter 2009.

International Offshore revenues decreased to $73.5 million in the second quarter 2010 from $101.8 million in the second quarter 2009 as a result of a decline in our operating days to 533 from 788, in the same periods, respectively. Operating days were adversely affected by the Hercules 170, which has been warm stacked since the third quarter 2009, and the Hercules 205 and 206, which were contracted in Mexico during 2009 but have since mobilized to the U.S. Gulf of Mexico and are now included in our Domestic Offshore segment. Average operating expenses per rig per day decreased to $39,817 in the second quarter 2010 from $42,998 in the comparable quarter in 2009 largely as a result of our cost reduction efforts. Operating income was $24.2 million in the second quarter 2010, compared to $17.2 million in the prior year period. As previously noted, the second quarter 2009 results include a non-cash charge of $26.9 million to reflect the impairment of the Hercules 110.

Inland

Inland revenues for the second quarter 2010 were $5.2 million, an increase from $96,000 in the second quarter 2009, as a result of increased year-over-year demand in this segment. Average revenue per rig per day for the second quarter 2010 was $20,720 and utilization was 91.6%, compared to the year ago period when the company did not have any operating days. Operating expenses decreased by $2.5 million, or 28%, to $6.4 million in the second quarter 2010 from $8.9 million in the second quarter 2009, as a result of our stacking plan, other cost reduction measures, and modest gains on asset sales. This segment recorded an operating loss of $7.7 million in the second quarter 2010 versus an operating loss of $17.4 million in the second quarter 2009.

Liftboats

Domestic Liftboats generated revenues of $17.9 million in the second quarter 2010 compared to $18.9 million in the second quarter 2009. The modest decrease in revenue was the result of a decrease in average revenue per liftboat per day to $7,149 during the second quarter 2010 from $7,727 in the second quarter 2009, partially offset by an improvement in operating days to 2,503 from 2,444 in the same periods, respectively. The decrease in average revenue per liftboat per day stems from both weaker dayrates on our smaller vessel classes and a shift in the mix of vessel class, as we mobilized four larger class vessels to West Africa in the fourth quarter 2009.  The increase in utilization is partly due to the Macondo blowout remediation efforts as we had nine liftboats under contract for various clean-up support related activities during the quarter. This segment recorded operating income of $3.0 million in the second quarter 2010, an increase from operating income of $0.2 million in the prior year period.

International Liftboat revenues increased by 31% to $27.2 million in the second quarter 2010 compared to $20.7 million in the second quarter 2009 primarily due to the aforementioned transfer of four larger class vessels to West Africa from the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, which contributed approximately $9.6 million to second quarter 2010 revenue.  Operating days increased by 22% to 1,224 in the second quarter 2010 from 1,005 in the second quarter 2009, and average revenue per liftboat per day increased by 8% to $22,212 from $20,644 in the same periods, respectively. Operating expenses increased to $14.9 million in the second quarter 2010 from $9.1 million in the second quarter 2009, largely as a result of the transfer of four vessels to the segment. Operating income for the segment of $6.5 million during the second quarter 2010 declined from $8.4 million during the second quarter 2009, as higher segment revenues were more than offset by increases in operating expense, depreciation and general and administrative costs.

Liquidity and Capitalization

At June 30, 2010, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaling $91.7 million and unused capacity of $165.0 million under its revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2010, the Company's balance sheet reflects total debt of $859.7 million.

Non-GAAP

Certain non-GAAP performance measures and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the Company have been provided for meaningful comparisons between current results and prior operating periods. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In order to fully assess the financial operating results, management believes that the adjusted loss from continuing operations figures included in this release are appropriate measures of the continuing and normal operations of the Company. However, these measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, income (loss) from continuing operations, operating income (loss), cash flows from operations, or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures included in this press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure in the table that follows the financial statements. Please see the attached Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures for a complete description of the adjustments made to Operating Income (Loss), Loss From Continuing Operations and Diluted Loss per Share from Continuing Operations.

(1)  Utilization is defined as the total number of days our rigs or liftboats, as applicable, were under contract, known as operating days, in the  

 period as a percentage of the total number of available days in the period.  Days during which our rigs and liftboats were undergoing major  

 refurbishments, upgrades or construction, and days during which our rigs and liftboats are cold-stacked, are not counted as available  

 days. Days during which our liftboats are in the shipyard undergoing drydocking or inspection are considered available days for the  

 purposes of calculating utilization.    


(2)  Average revenue per rig or liftboat per day is defined as revenue earned by our rigs or liftboats, as applicable, in the period divided by the

 total number of operating days for our rigs or liftboats, as applicable, in the period.  Included in International Offshore revenue is a total of

 $3.7 million and $7.3 million related to amortization of deferred mobilization revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010,

 respectively and $4.2 million and $8.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. Included in International

 Liftboats revenue is a total of $0.5 million and $0.6 million related to amortization of deferred mobilization revenue for the three and six

 months ended June 30, 2010, respectively and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. There was no such revenue in the three

 months ended June 30, 2009.  


(3)  Average operating expense per rig or liftboat per day is defined as operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, incurred  

 by our rigs or liftboats, as applicable, in the period divided by the total number of available days in the period.  We use available days to

 calculate average operating expense per rig or liftboat per day rather than operating days, which are used to calculate average revenue per

 rig or liftboat per day, because we incur operating expenses on our rigs and liftboats even when they are not under contract and earning a

 dayrate. In addition, the operating expenses we incur on our rigs and liftboats per day when they are not under contract are typically lower

 than the per day expenses we incur when they are under contract.  Included in International Offshore operating expense is a total of $0.2

 million and $0.4 million related to amortization of deferred mobilization expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010,

 respectively and $0.7 million and $1.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. Included in International    

 Liftboats operating expense is a total of $0.5 million and $1.2 million related to amortization of deferred mobilization expenses for the three

 and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. There was no such operating expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Unaudited)

(In thousands, except per share data)







We report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However,

management believes that certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios may provide users of this financial

information additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Non-GAAP

financial measures we may present from time to time are operating income, income from continuing operations or

diluted earnings per share excluding certain charges or amounts. These adjusted income amounts are not a measure

of financial performance under GAAP. Accordingly, they should not be considered as a substitute for operating income,

income from continuing operations, net income, earnings per share or other income data prepared in accordance with

GAAP.  See the table below for supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial

measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.  Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in

addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The

non-GAAP measures included in this press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure in the

following table:

(a) These amounts represent (i) a non-cash charge of $26.9 million to reflect the impairment of Hercules 110; (ii) a $10.7

million gain on the repurchase of $20.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.375% Convertible Senior Notes offset

by the write-off of unamortized issuance cost of $0.4 million; and (iii) a $4.4 million gain on the retirement of $45.8 million

aggregate principal amount of our 3.375% Convertible Senior Notes in exchange for 7,755,440 of our common shares

offset by the write-off of unamortized issuance cost of $1.0 million.  On an after-tax basis, these adjustments approximated

$4.2 million, or four cents per diluted share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.
