Pacific Drilling Announces First-Quarter 2016 Results
LUXEMBOURG–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Pacific Drilling S.A. (NYSE:PACD) today announced a net loss for first-quarter 2016 of $2.5 million or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $13.6 million or $0.06 per diluted share for fourth-quarter 2015 and net income of $51.7 million or $0.24 per diluted share for first-quarter 2015.
CEO Chris Beckett said, “Notwithstanding the commodity price uncertainty and challenging industry conditions, we delivered strong financial results with a record revenue efficiency of 97.7% and an EBITDA of $113 million, representing an impressive 55% EBITDA margin, despite only four out of our seven drillships operating during the quarter. We also continued to reduce our costs, while maintaining a strong focus on safe and efficient operations for our clients.”
First-Quarter 2016 Operational and Financial Commentary
Contract drilling revenue for first-quarter 2016 was $205.4 million, which included $12.7 million of deferred revenue amortization, compared to fourth-quarter 2015 contract drilling revenue of $267.6 million, which included $20.4 million of deferred revenue amortization. Contract drilling revenue decreased in the first-quarter primarily as a result of the Pacific Khamsin being idle during first-quarter 2016. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, our operating fleet achieved average revenue efficiency of 97.7 percent, a further improvement from fourth-quarter 2015’s previous record high of 97.3 percent.
Operating expenses for first-quarter 2016 were $79.0 million, compared to $104.9 million for fourth-quarter 2015. The reduction in operating expenses was primarily the result of the Pacific Khamsin being idle during first-quarter 2016. Operating expenses for first-quarter 2016 included $5.0 million in reimbursable costs, $8.1 million in shore-based and other support costs, and $2.8 million in amortization of deferred costs.
Direct rig-related daily operating expenses for operating rigs, excluding reimbursable costs, averaged $145,800 per rig in first-quarter 2016, down from an average of $150,300 per operating rig in fourth-quarter 2015. The reduction in direct rig-related daily operating expenses was primarily the result of continued fleet-wide cost saving measures. Direct rig-related daily operating expenses for our three idle rigs averaged $36,500 per rig in first-quarter 2016. This includes the Pacific Khamsin, which transitioned from full operating mode to smart-stacked mode during the first-quarter 2016.
General and administrative expenses for first-quarter 2016 were $15.1 million, compared to $12.6 million for fourth-quarter 2015. The increase in general and administrative expenses in the first-quarter 2016 is due to increased legal fees related to ongoing litigation. Such costs are anticipated to decrease in future quarters.
EBITDA for first-quarter 2016 was $112.9 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA (a) of $149.8 million for fourth-quarter 2015. A reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is included in the schedules accompanying this release.
Interest expense for first-quarter was $45.5 million, compared to $50.1 million for the fourth-quarter 2015. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the write-off of the unamortized deferred financing costs related to the termination of the 2014 revolving credit facility in fourth-quarter 2015.
Liquidity and Capital Expenditures
During first-quarter 2016, cash flow from operations was $86.7 million. Our liquidity as of March 31, 2016 was $622.3 million, consisting of $407.3 million in cash and $215.0 million in available and undrawn liquidity under our 2013 revolving credit facility.
Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2016 were $28.6 million and primarily consisted of the purchases of fleet spare equipment committed to in prior years to support our operations.
CFO Paul Reese commented, “During first-quarter 2016, we continued to reduce our daily operating expenses and net debt, which is consistent with our objective to strengthen our balance sheet in the current difficult market environment.”

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, costs from debt refinancing, loss from construction contract rescission, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, cash flow from operations or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and our calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are included herein because they are used by management to measure the company’s operations. Management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA present useful information to investors regarding the company’s operating performance during the periods presented below.
