Pride International Reports Preliminary Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2005 Results
Houston, Texas, March 17, 2006- Pride International, Inc. (NYSE: PDE) reported preliminary fourth quarter 2005 net earnings of $40.6 million and income from continuing operations of $40.2 million ($.24 per diluted share) on revenues of $551.0 million. Results included gains on sales of assets of $4.2 million, net of tax, and contract termination expenses related to the acquisition of joint venture assets totaling $4.1 million, net of tax. Compared to the fourth quarter 2004, net earnings increased 72% from $23.6 million, while income from continuing operations rose 81% from $22.2 million ($.15 per diluted share), and revenues increased 23% from $448.1 million. Results in the fourth quarter of 2004 included gains on sales of assets and other items totaling $8.3 million, net of tax.
In the third quarter 2005, net earnings and income from continuing operations totaled $68.9 million ($.41 per diluted share) on revenues of $538.8 million. In the third quarter 2005, gains on sales of assets and other items totaled $21.3 million, net of tax.
For the year ended December 31, 2005, Pride reported a significant increase in results compared to the previous year. Income from continuing operations of $128.3 million ($.80 per diluted share) increased four-fold on revenues of $2,033.3 million. For the year ended December 31, 2004, Pride reported income from continuing operations of $27.6 million ($.20 per diluted share) on revenues of $1,712.2 million.
Operations
Worldwide demand for the Company’s drilling rigs continued to improve during the fourth quarter 2005. Operating income was positively affected by strong dayrate increases in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico segment as well as pricing improvements in the Latin America Land segment. During the fourth quarter, business conditions remained strong in the Company’s international offshore segments, while transit, startup and shipyard time for certain semisubmersible and jackup rigs reduced operating income in these segments.
Consolidated operating income for the fourth quarter 2005 totaled $86.1 million, an increase of $10.7 million, or 14%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2004, and a decrease of $33.7 million, or 28%, from the third quarter 2005. Operating income included gains on asset sales and other items totaling $0.5 million in the fourth quarter 2005, $25.3 million in the fourth quarter 2004, and $21.1 million in the third quarter 2005. Excluding these items, operating results for the fourth quarter increased 71% over the prior year and decreased 13% sequentially.

In the U.S. Gulf of Mexico segment, operating income for the fourth quarter of 2005 improved $17.0 million or 135% from the same period a year ago, and $6.8 million, or 30%, over the third quarter of 2005. The improvements resulted from increased dayrates due to the continued rig shortage caused by migration of rigs to other regions and hurricane damage to the industry’s fleet. Average daily jackup revenues during the fourth quarter of 2005 increased to $65,300, up from $53,100 during the third quarter of 2005 and $35,000 in the fourth quarter of 2004.
Operating income in the fourth quarter for the Company’s Latin America Land segment was $21.9 million. Excluding gains on asset sales of approximately $2 million in the third and fourth quarters of 2005 and impairment charges of $16.8 million in the prior year period, results increased approximately $11.8 million, or 148% over the prior year, and by $5.5 million, or 38% sequentially. Average daily rig revenue in the fourth quarter increased 31% over the year-ago period and 11% over the third quarter, due to the continued implementation of general price list increases.
Operating income for the Eastern Hemisphere segment in the fourth quarter 2005 totaled $33.2 million compared to $62.5 million in the fourth quarter 2004 and $59.0 million in the third quarter 2005. Excluding gains on asset sales and contract termination expenses related to the joint venture acquisition, operating income increased $10.5 million over the previous year and decreased $2.6 million sequentially. The decrease was primarily related to mobilization and related startup delays for the semisubmersiblePride North America, which did not work during the quarter, partially offset by the return to service of the semisubmersiblePride South Seas, following transit, inspection and repair downtime in previous quarters.
For the Western Hemisphere segment, operating income of $19.8 million in the fourth quarter 2005 was level with the year-ago period and decreased $12.7 million from the third quarter 2005. The decrease was primarily driven by lower segment fleet utilization, due to the mobilization and shipyard work for life enhancement upgrades of thePride TennesseeandPride Oklahoma. In addition, costs to mobilize thePride Alaskafrom Mexico to the U.S. Gulf were expensed during the quarter. The rig is currently working in the U.S. Gulf at a dayrate in the mid $120,000’s, or over three times the rate of the prior contract.
Full year results for the Company’s E&P Services segment increased 49% to $23.0 million in 2005. Operating income in the fourth quarter of $3.8 million declined from $5.4 million in the fourth quarter 2004 and $6.3 million in the third quarter 2005. Results for the fourth quarter 2005 were negatively affected by a 19-day general energy industry labor union strike in southern Argentina that delayed cementing, stimulation and completion operations on several wells.
Joint Venture Acquisition and Rig Disposition
During the fourth quarter, Pride acquired an additional 40% interest in the joint venture companies that manage the Company’s Angolan operations from its partner, the national oil company of Angola. Pride now owns 91% of the joint venture companies, whose principal assets include the two ultra-deepwater drillshipsPride AfricaandPride Angola, the jackup rigPride Cabindaand management agreements for the deepwater platform rigsKizomba AandKizomba B. The Company invested $170.9 million for the acquisition and paid an additional $4.5 million for the termination of related agreements, which was expensed during the quarter.
In the first quarter 2006, the Company agreed to sell the accommodation unitPride Rotterdam for total proceeds of $53.3 million and expects to close the transaction in the near future.

Debt Reduction
As of December 31, 2005, total debt outstanding was approximately $1.25 billion. Without giving effect to borrowings of approximately $175 million in late December to fund the purchase of the Angolan joint venture interest and related contract termination expenses, total debt reduction approximated $662 million from year-end 2004 and $962 million from year-end 2003, when the Company began its debt reduction initiative. Giving effect to those borrowings, debt increased during the fourth quarter of 2005 by approximately $63 million, for a net reduction of debt totaling $487 million during 2005.
Commentary
Louis A. Raspino, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “2005 was a milestone year for Pride. We significantly improved our capital structure, strengthened our management team, continued upgrading our infrastructure and controls and developed a clear strategy for our future. We also posted record revenue in a year during which we saw the highest dayrates ever recorded in the Gulf of Mexico and strong utilization of our fleet worldwide. Mobilization or life enhancement upgrades of four of our assets during the fourth quarter temporarily reduced our financial results but will not have a lasting impact on our operations beyond the first half of 2006. Our rig contract backlog continues to improve with sizable dayrate increases.”
Raspino continued, “In regard to the new strategic direction we set for Pride last year, we have already accomplished the first step toward disciplined growth in deepwater markets with our Angola joint venture buyout in December, and we are aggressively searching for further value-adding opportunities to grow. Also, we continue to move forward with our actions to rationalize our asset base, as demonstrated by the pending sale of the non-core accommodation unit, thePride Rotterdam.”
Timing of Filing Form 10-K
During the course of the Company’s internal audit and investigation relating to certain of its Latin American operations, the Company’s management and internal audit department received allegations relating to improper payments to foreign government officials going back a number of years. As a result of the recent discovery of evidence in the matter, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors assumed direct responsibility over the investigation and retained Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP and Porter & Hedges LLP to investigate the allegations, as well as corresponding accounting entries and internal control issues, and to advise the Audit Committee. The Company has apprised the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Justice of the allegations.
At this time, the Company does not know whether the allegations will be substantiated, and if so, who may be implicated or what impact the allegations or the investigation may have on the Company, the Company’s business or the Company’s financial statements. In light of the status of the Audit Committee’s ongoing investigation, the Company has concluded that it cannot file its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 until additional information is obtained, including information necessary for the Company to complete its assessment of its system of internal controls and the accuracy of its books and records. Although the Audit Committee’s investigation is being pursued aggressively, the Company cannot currently determine whether it will be in a position to file its Form 10-K prior to March 31, 2006, the expiration of the 15-day extension period contemplated by the Company’s Form 12b-25 to be filed with the SEC.
3
If the Company fails to file the report within such 15-day period, a default would occur under the Company’s revolving credit facility and certain other indebtedness. There is at least a 30-day cure period for any such defaults. During the default period, the Company would be unable to make additional borrowings or to have additional letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility unless it obtains a waiver from the lenders. The Company currently has $120 million of borrowings and approximately $18 million of letters of credit outstanding under the facility and is working with its lenders to extend the compliance period.
Financial Results Subject to Adjustment
The financial information presented in this press release does not include the potential effects of any adjustment related to the ongoing investigation. Because that investigation and the preparation, completion, and independent audit of Pride’s financial statements in connection with its annual report on Form 10-K are ongoing, the financial information presented in this press release is preliminary, unaudited and subject to adjustment, which adjustment could be material.
Conference Call
The Company will host a conference call at 9:00 a.m. central time on Friday, March 17, 2006 to discuss results for the quarter, recent events and management’s operational outlook. Individuals who wish to participate in the conference call may do so by dialing (888) 455-0664 in the United States or (773) 799-3718 outside of the United States.

Earnings from operations excluding (gain) loss on sale of assets and other items is a “non-GAAP financial measure.” Management provides it as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that it provides investors useful information in evaluating the performance of the underlying operations. This measure is not a substitute for the measures of earnings from operations and net earnings as calculated under generally accepted accounting principles.
