HOUSTON, October 29, 2007 – FMC Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:FTI) today reported third quarter 2007 revenue of $1.1 billion, up 22 percent over the third quarter of 2006 led by the strength of its subsea systems business. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.60, up 46 percent from $0.41 per diluted share in the prior-year quarter.
Inbound orders in the quarter totaled $1.5 billion of which $766 million was in subsea systems. Backlog reached $3.7 billion, including a record $2.6 billion for subsea systems.
Operating profit in Energy Systems was strong year-over-year, up 43 percent in Energy Production Systems and up 41 percent in Energy Processing Systems.
“We continue to see positive returns from being positioned as the technology leader in our industry,” said Peter D. Kinnear, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our energy segments again showed robust growth improving year-over-year in orders, backlog, sales, and operating profit, allowing us to raise our estimate for continuing operations for the full year to $2.16—$2.21 per fully diluted share.” Mr. Kinnear added, “We are also announcing our intent to spin-off our FoodTech and Airport Systems businesses to shareholders in a tax-free distribution. With the growth in the energy businesses over the past few years, FoodTech and Airport Systems have become a smaller part of the total company. We now feel that they would perform better as an independent public company focused on their respective markets.”

Energy Production Systems
Energy Production Systems’ third quarter revenue of $683.8 million increased 21 percent over the prior-year quarter, due mainly to increased subsea systems sales. Revenue for subsea systems was $521 million in the quarter, up 17 percent from the prior-year quarter. Surface wellhead revenue improved 31 percent from the prior-year quarter.
Energy Production Systems’ operating profit of $70.4 million increased 43 percent over the prior-year quarter. The increase was due both to higher volume and operating margin in subsea systems. Surface wellhead operating profit improved due to higher volume.
Energy Production Systems’ inbound orders were $943.0 million for the third quarter, up $533.0 million over the prior-year quarter due to the strength of orders for subsea systems. Subsea systems inbound orders were $766 million in the quarter, up 178 percent from the prior-year quarter and 81 percent year-to-date. Energy Production backlog of $2.9 billion was up 88 percent from the prior-year quarter and up 10 percent sequentially. Subsea backlog was a record $2.6 billion at the end of the third quarter.
Energy Processing Systems
Energy Processing Systems’ third quarter revenue of $199.6 million was 14 percent higher than the prior-year quarter. The revenue improvement over the prior-year quarter was primarily the result of strong demand from service companies for fluid control products, including WECO®/Chiksan® equipment, which were up 25 percent from the prior-year quarter and 11 percent sequentially.
Energy Processing Systems’ third quarter operating profit of $38.0 million was 41 percent higher than the prior-year quarter. The improvement was largely the result of higher volume and operating margins in both fluid control and measurement solutions.
Energy Processing Systems’ inbound orders were $219.3 million for the third quarter, up 4 percent over the prior-year quarter and up 16 percent sequentially. Backlog is $357.2 million, up 31 percent from the prior-year quarter on strong fluid control, loading systems and measurement systems orders.

FoodTech
FoodTech’s revenue of $146.1 million in the third quarter was up 39 percent from the prior-year quarter due to increased sales of food processing, cooking, and freezing equipment. Operating profit of $14.1 million was up 44 percent from the prior-year quarter on the strength of higher volume in the cooking and freezing product lines.
Inbound orders totaled $153.9 million in the quarter. Backlog was $181.2 million, up 29 percent from the prior-year quarter driven by increased orders for food processing equipment.
Airport Systems
Airport Systems’ third quarter revenue of $108.9 million was up 22 percent compared to the third quarter of 2006 due to increased demand for ground systems equipment. Airport Systems’ third quarter operating profit of $11.7 million was up 38 percent from the prior-year quarter due to the higher volume.
Inbound orders totaled $134.9 million in the quarter. Backlog was $245.7 million, up 33 percent from the prior-year quarter on the strength of aircraft tow tractor and loader orders for North America and Europe.
Corporate Items
Corporate expense in the third quarter of 2007 was $10.0 million, $1.5 million above the prior-year quarter. Other expense, net, of $0.8 million decreased $4.2 million from the prior year quarter reflecting $8.9 million in increased net gains associated with marking equity and financial instruments to market. Partially offsetting these increased net gains were increased stock-based compensation and increased LIFO expense.
Net interest expense in the third quarter of 2007 was $3.3 million, up $1.9 million from the prior-year quarter due to higher debt. The tax rate in the third quarter was 34 percent.
Net debt of $158.6 million was down $106.9 million from the prior quarter. In the quarter, the Company repurchased 599,681 shares of common stock for $26.6 million.
Depreciation and amortization for the third quarter of 2007 was $21.6 million, up from $18.1 million in the prior-year quarter.
Capital expenditures during the third quarter of 2007 totaled $49.3 million, up from $35.8 million in the prior-year quarter due mainly to continued capacity expansion projects in Energy Systems and investment in new Light Well Intervention systems.

FoodTech and Airport Systems Spin-off
FMC Technologies announced its intent to combine its FoodTech and Airport Systems businesses into a separate, publicly-traded company and distribute it to shareholders in a manner that is tax free to shareholders. The Company estimates the distribution will occur in mid 2008.

The Company has retained Morgan Stanley to assist in this transaction.
Summary and Outlook
FMC Technologies reported earnings per diluted share from continuing operations of $0.60, up 46 percent from the prior-year quarter. On the strength of subsea, surface wellhead, and fluid control, Energy Production Systems’ and Energy Processing Systems’ operating profits were up 43 and 41 percent, respectively. Subsea systems’ orders increased $490 million from the prior-year quarter and are up 81 percent year-to-date, as its backlog reached a record $2.6 billion.
The energy businesses are expected to have another strong year in 2007, primarily driven by the secular growth of subsea systems. The Company increased its estimate for full year 2007 earnings per diluted share from continuing operations, including FoodTech and Airport Systems, to a range of $2.16 to $2.21.
