STEINHAUSEN, Switzerland, April 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Transocean Ltd. (NYSE: RIG) today reported a net loss attributable to controlling interest of $79 million, or loss of $0.11 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
First quarter results included $14 million, $0.01 per diluted share, for unfavorable discrete tax items, net. After consideration of these discrete items, first quarter 2025 adjusted net loss was $65 million, or loss of $0.10 per diluted share.
Contract drilling revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025, decreased sequentially by $46 million to $906 million, primarily due to lower revenues generated by one rig that was undergoing contract preparation and mobilization activities during the quarter, lower revenues generated by one rig that was idle in between contracts and two fewer days in the quarter, partially offset by higher revenue efficiency and average daily revenues across the fleet.
Operating and maintenance expense was $618 million, compared with $579 million in the prior quarter. The sequential increase was the result of an unfavorable legal outcome in the first quarter, a favorable legal settlement in the fourth quarter and increased costs related to a rig in shipyard, partially offset by lower in-service maintenance costs across our fleet.
General and administrative expense was $50 million, down from $56 million in the fourth quarter due primarily to decreased legal and professional fees.
Interest expense was $152 million in the first and fourth quarter, excluding the favorable adjustment of $36 million and $61 million, respectively, for the fair value of the bifurcated exchange feature related to the 4.625% exchangeable bonds. Interest income was $8 million, compared to $10 million in the prior quarter.
The Effective Tax Rate(2) was (95.8)%, down from 89.0% in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily due to lower operating income in the current quarter compared to the prior quarter. The Effective Tax Rate excluding discrete items was (62.3)% compared to 56.7% in the previous quarter. In the first quarter, cash paid for taxes was $13 million.
Cash provided by operating activities was $26 million during the first quarter of 2025, representing a decrease of $180 million compared to the prior quarter. The sequential decrease was in large part due to reduced collections from customers and increased payroll-related payments that regularly occur in the first quarter of each year.
First quarter 2025 capital expenditures of $60 million, compared to $29 million in the prior quarter, were related to capital upgrades for certain rigs in our fleet.
“The Transocean team delivered a solid quarter, with an adjusted EBITDA of $244 million on revenues of $906 million,” said Chief Executive Officer, Jeremy Thigpen. “We also improved our balance sheet with the repayment of $210 million in outstanding debt.”
Thigpen concluded, “While uncertain macroeconomic conditions have resulted in near-term market volatility, including commodity prices, Transocean is very well-positioned to navigate this evolving landscape. In addition to continuing to deliver strong operating performance across our highly contracted fleet, we remain engaged in constructive conversations with our customers on opportunities several years in the future.”
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present our operating results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). We believe certain financial measures, such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Free Cash Flow, which are non-GAAP measures, provide users of our financial statements with supplemental information that may be useful in evaluating our operating performance. We believe that such non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our operating results presented under U.S. GAAP, can be used to better assess our performance from period to period and relative to performance of other companies in our industry, without regard to financing methods, historical cost basis or capital structure. Such non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
All non-GAAP measure reconciliations to the most comparative U.S. GAAP measures are displayed in quantitative schedules on the company’s website at: www.deepwater.com.
