COVINGTON, La.,
-- Two additional DP-2 new gen OSV newbuilds were placed in service in
late
Second quarter 2009 revenues decreased 6.3% to Upstream Segment. Revenues from the Upstream segment were Downstream Segment. Revenues from the Downstream segment of General and Administrative ("G&A"). G&A expenses of Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was
First Half 2009 Results Revenues for the first six months of 2009 increased 2.8% to Future Outlook Based on the key assumptions outlined below and in the attached data tables, the following statements reflect management's current expectations regarding future earnings and certain events. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. Other than as expressly stated, these statements do not include the potential impact of any future capital transactions, such as vessel acquisitions, divestitures, unexpected vessel repairs and shipyard delays, business combinations, financings and unannounced newbuild programs that may be commenced after the date of this disclosure. For additional information concerning forward-looking statements, please see the note at the end of this news release. Recent Developments Upstream Contract Coverage Continues to Grow. The Company has recently
been awarded multi-year contracts for seven vessels in Latin America and the
Downstream Asset and Goodwill Impairment. Effective Accounting for Convertible Senior Notes. In accordance with the required
change in method of accounting for convertible debt instruments issued by the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), effective Earnings Outlook Revised Annual 2009 Guidance. In recognition of its actual results for
the first six months of 2009 and its revised outlook on market conditions for
the remainder of the 2009 guidance period, the Company now expects total
EBITDA for the full-year 2009 to range between Key Assumptions. The Company's forward earnings guidance, outlined above
and in the attached data tables, assumes that current Upstream and Downstream
market conditions remain constant. Fleetwide average new generation OSV
dayrates are anticipated to remain in the The Company's full-year 2009 Upstream guidance includes a partial-year contribution from additional vessels to be delivered under its MPSV program and its fourth OSV newbuild program in accordance with the estimated newbuild delivery expectations discussed below. None of the Company's remaining six conventional OSVs, all of which are now stacked, are expected to contribute any operating results for the remainder of the fiscal 2009 guidance period. The 2009 Downstream guidance reflects an operating fleet comprised solely of nine double-hulled tank barges and nine ocean-going tugs for the remainder of the 2009 guidance period. Due to recent cost cutting measures, the Company expects that cash
operating expenses per vessel-day in fiscal 2009 for its active fleet will be
less than fiscal 2008 levels, excluding contract-related costs recoverable
through higher dayrates or other revenue. The Company is also mitigating the
adverse impact of revenue decreases on its operating margins by stacking
underutilized vessels, which should result in significant additional operating
cost savings and lower the Company's operating risk profile. G&A expenses are
expected to be in the range of 9% to 10% of revenues for the remainder of the
2009 guidance period. The projected annual stock-based compensation expense,
depreciation, amortization and net interest expense that underpin the
Company's diluted EPS guidance for the full-year 2009 are included in the
attached data tables. Projected quarterly stock-based compensation expense,
depreciation, amortization and net interest expense for the quarter ending
Capital Expenditures Outlook Update on Maintenance Capital Expenditures. Please refer to the attached
data table for a summary, by period, of historical and projected data for each
of the following three major categories of maintenance capital expenditures:
(i) deferred drydocking charges; (ii) other vessel capital improvements and
(iii) non-vessel related capital expenditures. The Company expects total
maintenance capital expenditures for the full-year 2009 to be approximately
Update on MPSV Program. The Company's MPSV program consists of the
conversion of two U.S.-flagged coastwise sulfur tankers at domestic shipyards
into 370 class DP-2 new generation MPSVs and the construction of two T-22
class DP-3 new generation MPSV newbuilds in foreign shipyards. The first two
vessels under this program, the T-22 class DP-3 MPSV, HOS Achiever, and the
converted DP-2 MPSV, HOS Centerline, were placed in service in Update on OSV Newbuild Program #4. The Company's fourth OSV newbuild
program consists of vessel construction contracts with three domestic
shipyards to build six 240 ED class OSVs, nine 250 EDF class OSVs and one 290
class OSV, respectively. Eleven of these 16 new generation DP-2 OSVs have
been awarded customer contracts prior to their shipyard delivery. Nine OSVs
have been placed in service under this program on various dates since

All of the above capital costs and delivery date estimates for contracted growth initiatives are based on the latest available information and are subject to change. All of the figures set forth above represent expected cash outlays and do not include the allocation of construction period interest. Update on Liquidity. The Company believes that its current working
capital, available capacity under its existing revolving credit facility and
projected cash flows from operations for the fiscal years 2009 and 2010 will
be sufficient to meet its anticipated operating needs, as well as the total
remaining cash requirements under its MPSV and OSV newbuild programs of
approximately Conference Call The Company will hold a conference call to discuss its second quarter 2009
financial results and recent developments at Attached Data Tables The Company has posted an electronic version of the following three pages of data tables, which are downloadable in Microsoft Excel format, on the "IR Home" page of the "Investors" section of the Hornbeck Offshore website for the convenience of analysts and investors. Forward-Looking Statements This Press Release contains "forward-looking statements," as contemplated
by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, in which the Company
discusses factors it believes may affect its performance in the future.
Forward-looking statements are all statements other than historical facts,
such as statements regarding assumptions, expectations, beliefs and
projections about future events or conditions. You can generally identify
forward-looking statements by the appearance in such a statement of words like
"anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect,"
"forecast," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "potential," "predict,"
"project," "should" or "will" or other comparable words or the negative of
such words. The accuracy of the Company's assumptions, expectations, beliefs
and projections depend on events or conditions that change over time and are
thus susceptible to change based on actual experience, new developments and
known and unknown risks. The Company gives no assurance that the
forward-looking statements will prove to be correct and does not undertake any
duty to update them. The Company's actual future results might differ from
the forward-looking statements made in this Press Release for a variety of
reasons, which include: the Company's inability to successfully or timely
complete its various vessel construction and conversion programs, especially
its MPSV program, which involves the construction and integration of highly
complex vessels and systems; changes in its vessel construction and conversion
budgets; less than anticipated success in marketing and operating its MPSVs,
which are a class of vessels that the Company does not have a long history of
owning or operating; the inability of our MPSVs to perform the services for
which they were designed; further weakening of demand for the Company's
services; inability to effectively curtail operating expenses from stacked
vessels; the potential for valuation impairment charges; the inability to sell
or otherwise dispose of non-core assets on acceptable terms; unplanned
customer suspensions, cancellations, rate reductions or non-renewals of vessel
charters or failures to finalize commitments to charter vessels; an adverse
ruling in the Superior Achiever adversary proceeding; industry risks; further
reductions in capital spending budgets by customers; further decline in oil
and natural gas prices; increases in operating costs; the inability to
accurately predict vessel utilization levels and dayrates; less than
anticipated subsea infrastructure demand activity in the U.S. Gulf of Regulation G Reconciliation This press release also contains references to the non-GAAP financial
measures of earnings, or net income, before interest, income taxes,
depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA. The Company
views EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA primarily as liquidity measures and,
therefore, believes that the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable
to such measures is cash flows provided by operating activities.
Reconciliations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to cash flows provided by
operating activities are provided in the table below. Management's opinion
regarding the usefulness of EBITDA to investors and a description of the ways
in which management uses such measure can be found in the Company's most
recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the
