ROWAN REPORTS IMPROVED FINANCIAL RESULTS
HOUSTON, Jan 13, 2000 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Net income amounted to $2.4
million, or $.03 per share, in the fourth quarter of 1999 compared to $0.6
million, or $.01 per share, in the third quarter of 1999. Net income was $4.8
million, or $.06 per share, in the fourth quarter of 1998. For the year ended
December 31, 1999, the Company incurred a net loss of $9.7 million, or $.12 per
share, compared to net income of $124.5 million, or $1.43 per share, in 1998.
The improvement in results between the third and fourth quarters of 1999 was
largely due to the contribution of the drilling division. Results for the fourth
quarter were negatively impacted by mobilization expense of approximately $3.9
million, or about $.03 per share, to relocate Gorilla V and the Rowan-Halifax
from the North Sea to eastern Canada and the Gulf of Mexico, respectively.
Additionally, the Gorilla V contract dispute with Amoco (UK) Exploration Company
reduced quarterly revenues and pre-tax income by approximately $16 million.
C. R. Palmer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "What a
difference a year makes. At this time last year, our offshore rig utilization
was 36% and our average day rate was $67,900 and declining. Currently, our rig
utilization is 91% and our average day rate is $41,200 and increasing.
Fortunately, Rowan's stock price clearly reflects the improving business outlook
-- near $21.00 per share today, up from less than $11.00 a year ago.
"Demand for energy is increasing and energy prices have stabilized -- at least
for the moment. The fundamentals are in place for continued improvement in
financial performance.
"We believe we are in the right places, with the right equipment and personnel.
Go RDC!"
