Helix Reports Second Quarter 2015 Results
HOUSTON, TX - Helix Energy Solutions Group, Inc. (NYSE: HLX) reported a net loss of $(2.6) million, or $(0.03) per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2015 compared to net income of $57.8 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, for the same period in 2014 and net income of $19.6 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2015. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $17.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared with net income of $111.5 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Owen Kratz, President and Chief Executive Officer of Helix, stated, “Our second quarter results are indicative of overall weak industry conditions in the oilfield services sector. Our well intervention business was negatively impacted this quarter by a longer than planned Q4000 regulatory dry-dock and customer delays on the H534; this was partially offset by increased utilization in the North Sea, anchored by the Well Enhancer and the return to work of the Skandi Constructor. This quarter we took delivery of the Q5000 and made the final shipyard payment with proceeds from our Q5000 Term Loan. Additional proceeds from the loan increased our cash position. Helix continues to implement the steps necessary to secure our long term position in this market.”

Business Segment Results
o | Well Intervention revenues decreased 18% in the second quarter of 2015 from revenues in the first quarter of 2015 primarily due to lower vessel utilization in the Gulf of Mexico. Vessel utilization in the Gulf of Mexico was 42% in the second quarter compared to 81% in the first quarter of 2015. The Q4000 was in dry-dock for 64 days during the quarter, while the H534 utilization decreased to 55% in the second quarter compared to 71% in the first quarter of 2015. In the North Sea, vessel utilization was 84% in the second quarter, compared to 54% in the first quarter of 2015. The Well Enhancer was fully utilized in the second quarter, while the Skandi Constructor utilization increased to 68% in the second quarter after being dockside most of the first quarter and most of April. The rental intervention riser systems continue to positively contribute to revenues; IRS #2 was on-hire for entire second quarter of 2015, while IRS #1 was deployed in June and on-hire for 25 days. |
o | Robotics revenues decreased 6% in the second quarter of 2015 from revenues in the first quarter of 2015 driven by lower selling rates. The robotics chartered vessel fleet utilization decreased to 81% for the quarter from 86% in the first quarter of 2015. During the second quarter we added the Grand Canyon II to our chartered vessel fleet, increasing the fleet to five vessels. ROV utilization remained constant quarter over quarter at 61%. |
Other Expenses
o | Selling, general and administrative expenses were 10.0% of revenue in the second quarter of 2015, compared to 6.7% of revenue in the first quarter of 2015. Our second quarter 2015 expenses include $2.5 million of charges associated with the provision for the uncertain collection of a portion of an existing trade receivable. The decrease in SG&A during Q1 primarily reflects a reduction of costs associated with our variable performance-based incentive compensation. |
o | Net interest expense and other increased to $10.3 million in the second quarter of 2015 from $5.2 million in the first quarter of 2015. Net interest expense increased to $5.2 million in the second quarter of 2015, reflecting the funding of the Q5000 Term Loan at the end of April. Other expense was $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2015 compared to $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2015, which primarily reflects foreign exchange fluctuations in our non-U.S. dollar functional currencies. |
Financial Condition and Liquidity
o | Our total liquidity at June 30, 2015 was approximately $1.0 billion, consisting of $500 million in cash and cash equivalents and $450 million in unused availability under our revolver. Consolidated net debt at June 30, 2015 was $294 million. Net debt to book capitalization at June 30, 2015 was 15%. (Net debt to book capitalization is a non-GAAP measure. See reconciliation below.) |
o | We incurred capital expenditures (including capitalized interest) totaling $197 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $58 million in the first quarter of 2015. The increase in capital expenditures in the second quarter was driven by the final shipyard payment associated with the delivery of the Q5000 vessel. |

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management evaluates Company performance and financial condition using certain non-GAAP metrics, primarily EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, net debt and net debt to book capitalization. We define EBITDA as earnings before net interest expense and other, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense. We deduct the noncontrolling interests related to the adjustment components of EBITDA and the gain or loss on disposition of assets to arrive at our measure of Adjusted EBITDA. Net debt is calculated as the sum of financial debt less cash and cash equivalents on hand. Net debt to book capitalization is calculated by dividing net debt by the sum of net debt and shareholders’ equity. These non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and other internal and external users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance because they are widely used by investors in our industry to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items which can vary substantially from company to company, and help investors meaningfully compare our results from period to period. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, but instead are supplemental to, income from operations, net income or other income data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Users of this financial information should consider the types of events and transactions which are excluded from these measures.
