HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 7, 2024-- Tidewater Inc. (NYSE:TDW) announced today revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 of $340.4 million and $1,000.8 million, respectively, compared with $299.3 million and $707.3 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. Tidewater's net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $46.4 million ($0.87 per common share) and $143.8 million ($2.70 per common share), respectively, compared with net income of $26.2 million ($0.49 per common share) and $59.5 million ($1.13 per common share), respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Quintin Kneen, Tidewater’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Third quarter revenue of $340.4 million and gross margin of 47.2% came in as expected, with our consolidated average day rate up over 5% to $22,275. In particular, the average day rate and average leading-edge day rates in our large PSV and anchor handler fleets continued to show sequential quarterly improvement. Utilization declined in all of our geographic segments and is principally related to project start-up delays, but also due to higher-than-expected idle time between contracts and days in drydock.

“Cash flow from operations for the first nine months of 2024 was $182.5 million, the best performance Tidewater has seen in 8 years. During the same period the company spent $75.2 million on reducing the number of shares outstanding and $89.0 million on the required amortization of outstanding debt. Our expectation for the next two quarters is that quarterly free cash flow generation will increase. Our ability under our existing debt agreements to repurchase shares will increase substantially in the same time frame and our desire to repurchase shares at current trading levels is very strong. The Board has authorized the maximum permissible amount of share repurchases under our existing debt agreements, and our current unused repurchase capacity is now $42.8 million. The company anticipates share repurchase capacity to increase by close to $100 million in the first quarter of 2025.

“Although we are confident in the visibility of free cash flow growth over the next two quarters, the visibility into the continued pace of growth in offshore activity throughout 2025 is more limited. We will be closely monitoring market dynamics in the coming months and look forward to providing updated thoughts around full-year 2025 in our next earnings press release. Global industry discussion on new vessel orders and reactivations, which popped up briefly over the summer, has dropped off significantly from that time due to the same limited visibility.

“Over the past several years, we have employed a contracting strategy appropriate for an improving market, emphasizing shorter-duration contracts, trading off longer-term contract coverage and higher utilization for the opportunity to push day rates and contract terms. This has proven to be a successful strategy, with our realized day rate now more than double our realized day rate at the beginning of 2022 when the offshore vessel recovery began. We believe this remains the correct contracting strategy as day rates have still not returned to a point at which newbuilding vessel activity makes economic sense, which is reflected in the continued record low newbuild OSV orderbook. The lack of newbuild activity combined with vessel attrition expected to occur over the coming years points to persistent longer-term vessel supply constraints.

“The outlook on the timing of the growth in offshore vessel activity has become uncertain recently due to concerns around slower acceleration in oil demand driven by lower-than-expected growth in China and geopolitical events as well as the growth in non-OPEC oil supply. We continue to believe that these concerns will clarify themselves in the coming months and that the longer-term outlook for Tidewater remains quite attractive. The world’s demand for energy of all types will continue to grow and the displacement rate from the growth of renewable energy sources appears to be lower than previously predicted. As such, hydrocarbon energy sources will remain a critical element of satisfying the world’s demand for energy and offshore hydrocarbons will increasingly fill this need. Our customers’ commitment to long cycle exploration and development programs is indicative of the long-term conviction in the role of offshore hydrocarbons in the global energy mix and underpins our outlook for consistently strong offshore vessel demand. Our customers have executed sizable drilling campaigns over the last few years and seem to be taking time to evaluate the outcomes of these projects before they proceed with incremental future activity. The improvements in demand for offshore vessels coming from subsea activities is very evident but it is not clear to what extent that will offset the expected pause in the growth of offshore drilling activity.

“Given our conviction around the positive and improving structural supply and demand fundamentals and Tidewater’s strong position in the offshore vessel industry, we believe that market inefficiencies will provide for opportunities to continue our past success in enhancing shareholder value as the long-term supply and demand fundamentals continue to develop in our favor.”

In addition to the number of outstanding shares, as of September 30, 2024, the Company also has the following in-the-money warrants.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We disclose and discuss EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP financial measures in our public releases, including quarterly earnings releases, investor conference calls and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We define EBITDA as earnings (net income or loss) before interest and other debt costs, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA excludes impairment charges, non-cash indemnification asset charge, non-cash stock-based compensation expense and merger and integration related costs. Our measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, which may limit its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income or loss, cash provided (used) in operating activities, investing and financing activities, or other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are widely used by investors and other users of our financial statements as a supplemental financial measure that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations, we believe provide additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our ability to service debt, pay taxes and fund drydocking and survey costs and capital expenditures. We also believe the disclosure of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare our cash flow generating capacity from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also financial metrics used by management (i) as a supplemental internal measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations; (ii) to compare to the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA of other companies when evaluating potential acquisitions; and (iii) to assess our ability to service existing fixed charges and incur additional indebtedness.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP investment performance indicator which we believe provides useful information regarding the net cash generated by the Company before any payments to capital providers. Free cash flow is determined from net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for capital expenditures, excluding expansion capital, proceeds from asset sales, cash interest expense and interest income. Free cash flow excludes indemnification assets charge included in interest income and other. Free cash flow is not defined by U.S. GAAP and is not a substitute for net cash provided by operating activities. Note (A): Net cash provided by operating activities is affected by changes in our assets and liabilities and the amounts we pay in cash for our drydocks and vessel surveys as illustrated in the following table:
