NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial information for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 has been prepared by the Company and has not been audited by its independent registered public accounting firm. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SEACOR Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, which effective July 1, 2005 include Seabulk International, Inc. (“Seabulk”—see Note 2). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and those described in Note 2) have been made to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2006, its results of operations for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year or any future periods.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.
Unless the context otherwise indicates, any references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the “Company” refer to SEACOR Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and any references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “SEACOR” refer to SEACOR Holdings Inc.
Certain reclassifications of prior period information have been made to conform to the presentation of the current period.
2. Seabulk Merger and Disposition of Held for Sale Seabulk Assets
On July 1, 2005, SEACOR completed its acquisition of Seabulk through a merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of SEACOR (the “Seabulk Merger”). The Seabulk Merger was accounted for as a purchase, with SEACOR as the acquiror in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations. Accordingly, SEACOR performed a fair value analysis whereby the purchase price was allocated to the assets and liabilities of Seabulk, including certain identifiable intangible assets, based on their fair values as of July 1, 2005, with the excess of purchase price over fair value recorded as goodwill in the amount of $16.3 million. The fair value analysis of assets and liabilities acquired in the Seabulk Merger was finalized as of June 30, 2006.

As part of the fair value analysis, the Company designated certain Seabulk vessels as held for sale in the aggregate amount of $123.0 million, net of drydock commitments, including two foreign-flag double-hulled product tankers, one tug and 13 offshore supply vessels. During the six months ended December 31, 2005, Seabulk sold the two foreign-flag double-hull product tankers, one tug and seven offshore supply vessels for aggregate consideration of $116.5 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, Seabulk sold four offshore supply vessels for aggregate consideration of $6.0 million. No gain or loss on the sale of the vessels was recorded as the fair value of the vessels was equal to the net sales price. As of June 30, 2006, two offshore supply vessels with combined value of $0.5 million were classified as held for sale.

3. Equipment Acquisitions, Dispositions and Depreciation Policy
Capital expenditures were $149.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. Equipment deliveries during the period included two offshore services vessels, 38 new dry cargo covered hopper barges, three new chemical tank barges and five new helicopters.
During the six months ended June 30, 2006, in addition to the disposition of the four Seabulk vessels that had been held for sale, the Company sold 32 offshore support vessels, two helicopters, other equipment and undelivered equipment for aggregate consideration of $132.7 million and recognized a gain of $45.0 million.
Equipment, stated at cost, is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. For offshore support vessels and related equipment estimated useful lives are generally 20 years from date of build, for tankers 25 years from date of build or the required retirement
5
date as determined by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, for inland river dry cargo and chemical tank barges 20 years from date of build, for helicopters and related equipment twelve years from date of build, for harbor and offshore tugs 40 years from date of build, and for all other equipment two to 20 years.
4. Disposition of Joint Venture Interest and Vessel
In 1994, the Company and Grupo TMM, S.A., a Mexican corporation (“TMM”) organized a joint venture, Maritima Mexicana, S.A. de C.V. (“Marmex”) to serve the Mexican offshore market. Effective March 3, 2006, the Company sold its 40% interest in Marmex to TMM for $20.0 million recognizing an after tax gain thereon of $4.5 million and was released from its guarantees in the amount of $8.0 million with respect to vessels bareboat chartered to the joint venture. In addition, TMM purchased five offshore vessels from the Company for aggregate consideration of approximately $37.3 million (see Note 3).
During the three months ended June 30, 2006, one of the Company’s offshore marine joint ventures sold a vessel for $27.8 million. The Company’s share of the gain included in Equity in Earnings of 50% or Less Owned Companies was $4.2 million.
5. Construction Reserve Funds
Construction reserve fund accounts were established by the Company pursuant to Section 511 of the Merchant Marine Act, 1936, as amended. In accordance with this statute, the Company is permitted to deposit proceeds from the sale of certain vessels into the joint depository construction reserve fund accounts for the purpose of acquiring U.S. flag vessels and qualifying for the temporary deferral of taxable gains realized from the sale of vessels. Withdrawals from the construction reserve fund accounts are only permitted with the consent of the Maritime Administration.
As of June 30, 2006, construction reserve funds of $192.9 million are classified as non-current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as the Company has the intent and ability to use the funds to acquire equipment. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, construction reserve fund account transactions included withdrawals of $10.2 million, deposits of $76.6 million and earned interest of $3.7 million.
6. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company’s unfunded capital commitments as of June 30, 2006, consisted primarily of marine service vessels, helicopters and barges and totaled $631.7 million, of which $429.7 million is payable in 2006 and 2007, with the remaining balance payable through 2009. Of these commitments, approximately $187.8 million may be terminated without further liability other than the payment of liquidated damages of $4.9 million in the aggregate. Subsequent to the end of the quarter the Company committed to purchase additional equipment for $37.5 million.
The Company has guaranteed the payment of amounts owed by certain of its joint ventures under vessel charter agreements that expire through 2009. In addition, the Company has guaranteed amounts owed by certain of its joint ventures under a banking facility and a performance guarantee. As of June 30, 2006, the total amount guaranteed by the Company was $4.1 million.
In the normal course of its business, the Company becomes involved in various litigation matters including, among other things, claims by third parties for alleged property damages, personal injuries and other matters. While the Company believes it has meritorious defenses against these claims, management has used estimates in determining the Company’s potential exposure and has recorded reserves in its financial statements related thereto where appropriate. It is possible that a change in the Company’s estimates of that exposure could occur, but the Company does not expect such changes in estimated costs will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of its operations.

In June 2005, a subsidiary of SEACOR received a document subpoena from the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice. This subpoena relates to a grand jury investigation of potential antitrust violations among providers of helicopter transportation services in the Gulf of Mexico. The Company believes that this subpoena is part of a broader industry inquiry and that the other providers also have received such subpoena. SEACOR intends to provide all information requested in response to this investigation.
Under United States law, “United States persons” are prohibited from business activities and contracts in certain countries, including Sudan and Iran. Relating to the prohibitions, Seabulk filed three reports with and submitted documents to the Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”) of the U.S. Department of Treasury in December 1999 and January and May 2002. One of the reports was also filed with the Bureau of Export Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce. The reports and documents related to certain limited charters with third parties involving three Seabulk vessels which called in Sudan for several months in 1999 and January 2000 and charters with third parties involving several of Seabulk’s vessels which called in Iran in 1998. In March 2003, Seabulk received notification from OFAC that the case has been referred to its Civil Penalties Division. Should OFAC determine that these activities constituted violations of the laws or regulations, civil penalties, including fines, could be assessed against Seabulk and/or certain individuals who knowingly participated in such activity. The Company cannot predict the extent of such penalties; however, management does not believe the outcome of these matters will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Certain subsidiaries of the Company were previously participating employers in an industry-wide, multi-employer, defined benefit pension fund based in the United Kingdom: the Merchant Navy Officers Pension Fund (“MNOPF”). Under the direction of a court order, any deficit is to be remedied through future funding contributions from all participating employers. The most recent actuarial review of the MNOPF determined there was a funding deficit of $412.0 million of which $4.4 million, representing the Company’s share of this deficit, was invoiced and recognized in 2005. Deficits allocable to the Company relate to officers employed between 1978 and 2002 by SEACOR’s Stirling group of companies (which had been acquired by SEACOR in 2001) and its predecessors. In March 2006, the MNOPF was scheduled to undergo an actuarial valuation to determine if additional contributions would be required; however, the Company has not received notification of any new actuarial valuation results. Depending on the results of future actuarial valuations, it is possible that the MNOPF will issue additional invoices requiring the Company to recognize payroll related operating expenses in the period invoices are received.
7. Long-Term Debt
As of June 30, 2006, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the SEACOR revolving credit facility which terminates in February 2007. Remaining availability under the SEACOR revolving credit facility was $160.8 million, net of issued letters of credit of $39.2 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, the Company terminated Seabulk’s credit facility.
During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company made principal payments on long-term debt and capital lease obligations of $22.5 million. Payments included $10.5 million on debt assumed in a December 2005 acquisition and $4.7 million on the termination of a capital lease assumed in the Seabulk Merger.
8. Stock and Debt Repurchases
During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company acquired 336,500 shares of SEACOR common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), for treasury in the amount of $25.8 million. As of June 30, 2006, repurchase authority of $24.2 million granted by the Company’s Board of Directors remained available for acquisition of additional shares of Common Stock, SEACOR’s 7.2% Senior Notes
7
Due 2009, its 57¤8% Senior Notes due 2012, its 2.875% Convertible Debentures Due 2024 and the 9.5% senior notes of Seabulk due 2013. Securities are acquired from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions.
Subsequent to June 30, 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors increased the above referenced repurchase authority to $75.0 million.
9. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share were computed based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the relevant periods. Diluted earnings per common share were computed based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive securities. In determining dilutive securities for this purpose the Company assumes, through the application of the treasury stock and if-converted methods, all restricted stock grants have vested, all common shares have been issued pursuant to the exercise of all outstanding stock options and all common shares have been issued pursuant to the conversion of all outstanding convertible notes. Diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 excluded 56,875 and 89,875, respectively, options and share awards as the effect of their inclusion in the computation would have been antidilutive. Diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 excluded 110,560 options and share awards as the effect of their inclusion in the computation would have been antidilutive.

11. Share-Based Compensation
On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payments (“SFAS No. 123(R)”), which is a revision of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Share-Based Payments. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principal Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (“APB No. 25”) and amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the statement of operations based on their fair values. SFAS No. 123(R) eliminates the alternative of using the intrinsic method of accounting provided for in APB No. 25, which generally resulted in no compensation expense recorded in the financial statements related to the grant of stock options to employees if certain conditions were met.
The fair value concepts were not changed significantly in SFAS No. 123(R); however, companies must choose among alternative valuation models and amortization assumptions upon adoption of the new standard. After assessing alternative valuation models and amortization assumptions, the Company has continued using both the Black-Scholes valuation model and straight-line amortization of compensation expense over the requisite service period of the grants. The Company will reconsider use of this model if additional information becomes available in the future that indicates another model would be more appropriate, or if grants issued in future periods have characteristics that cannot be reasonably estimated using this model. The Company has previously estimated forfeitures in its expense calculation for pro forma footnote disclosure and no change in that methodology was made upon adoption of SFAS No. 123(R).
The Company’s share-based compensation plans as described in Note 13 of the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 have not been modified during the six months ended June 30, 2006. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective method which requires the Company to record compensation expense for all awards granted after the date of adoption and for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date of adoption. Accordingly, prior period amounts presented herein have not been restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), the Company will present the excess tax benefits from the exercise of stock options as a financing cash flow in our statements of cash flows. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 123(R) lowered net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 123(R) lowered basic earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, $0.02 and $0.04, respectively, and lowered diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, $0.02 and $0.03, respectively.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recognized $2.0 million and $3.3 million, respectively, of compensation expense related to stock options, employee stock purchase plan purchases, restricted stock grants (including restricted stock units) and director stock grants. As of June 30, 2006, the Company had approximately $16.2 million in total unrecognized compensation costs of which $3.4 million and $4.2 million is expected to be recognized in 2006 and 2007, respectively, with the remaining balance recognized through 2011.

The weighted average value of grants under the Company’s share-based compensation plans were $51.55 and $38.73 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The fair value of each option granted during the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: (a) no dividend yield, (b) weighted average expected volatility of 25.7% and 27.6%, respectively, (c) weighted average discount rates of 4.93% and 3.93%, respectively, and (d) expected lives of five years.

12. New Accounting Pronouncements
On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 applies to all tax positions related to income taxes subject to Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. Differences between the amounts recognized in the statements of financial position prior to the adoption of FIN 48 and the amounts reported after adoption will be accounted for as a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to the beginning balance of retained earnings. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and will be adopted by SEACOR on January 1, 2007. The Company is reviewing the new standard and has not determined the impact, if any, the adoption of FIN 48 will have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
13. Segment Information
Accounting standards require public business enterprises to report information about each of their operating business segments that exceed certain quantitative thresholds or meet certain other reporting requirements. Operating business segments have been defined as a component of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available and is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s basis of measurement of segment profit or loss has not changed from those previously described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. Certain reclassifications of prior period information have been made to conform to the current period’s reportable segment presentation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements concerning management’s expectations, strategic objectives, business prospects, anticipated economic performance and financial condition and other similar matters involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements discussed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties and other important factors include, among others: the cyclical nature of the oil and gas industry, international operations, changes in foreign political, military and economic conditions, the dependence of Offshore Marine Services, Marine Transportation Services and Aviation Services on several customers, industry fleet capacity, consolidation of our customer base, the ongoing need to replace aging vessels, restrictions imposed by the Shipping Acts and Aviation Acts on the amount of foreign ownership of the Company’s Common Stock, increased competition if the Jones Act is repealed, safety record requirements related to Offshore Marine Services and Aviation Services, changes in foreign and domestic oil and gas exploration and production activity, vessel and helicopter-related risks of Offshore Marine Services, Marine Transportation Services, Harbor and Offshore Towing Services and Aviation Services, effects of adverse weather conditions and seasonality on Aviation Services, decreased demand for our tanker and towing services due to construction of additional refined petroleum product, natural gas or crude oil pipelines or due to decreased demand for refined petroleum products, crude oil or chemical products or a change in existing methods of delivery, future phase-out of our single-hull tankers, dependence of spill response revenue on the number and size of spills and upon continuing government regulation in this area and our ability to comply with such regulation and other governmental regulation, changes in NRC’s OSRO classification, liability in connection with providing spill response services, effects of adverse weather and river conditions and seasonality on inland river operations, the level of grain export volume, the effect of fuel prices on barge towing costs, variability in freight rates for inland river barges, the effect of international economic and political factors in inland river operations, adequacy of insurance coverage, compliance with government regulation, including environmental laws and regulations, currency exchange fluctuations, the attraction and retention of qualified personnel by the Company, our integration of the internal controls and procedures of Seabulk International, Inc. to continue our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and various other matters, many of which are beyond the Company’s control and other factors. In addition, these statements constitute our cautionary statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider the following to be a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties. The words “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “believe,” “plan” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of the document in which they are made. We disclaim any obligation or undertaking to provide any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect any change in our expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which the forward-looking statement is based. The forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q should be evaluated together with the many uncertainties that affect our businesses, particularly those mentioned under “Risks, Uncertainties and Other Factors That May Affect Future Results” in Item 1A of our Form 10-K and SEACOR’s periodic reporting on Form 8-K (if any), which we incorporate by reference.

Overall Operating Revenues. Operating revenues increased $84.2 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and increased $163.7 million in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months. Demand for equipment has been strong throughout 2006 in response to higher levels of exploration, production and construction activity. Overall average day rates increased from $6,139 per day in the Prior Six Months to $8,327 per day in the Current Six Months while overall fleet utilization was
15
relatively unchanged at approximately 86%. For SEACOR’s fleet prior to the Seabulk Merger, the impact of higher day-rates resulted in increased operating revenues of $24.8 million in the Current Year Quarter and $44.7 million in the Current Six Months.
The Company regularly buys, sells, charters and repositions vessels in an effort to align Offshore Marine Services’ fleet mix with the anticipated needs of its customers. Changes in the fleet mix resulted in increased operating revenues of $50.7 million in the Current Year Quarter and $104.3 million in the Current Six Months, of which $46.4 million and $94.6 million, respectively, were due to the vessels acquired in the Seabulk Merger.
Domestic Operating Revenues. Operating revenues in the U.S. increased $47.6 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and increased $93.7 million in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months. Changes in the fleet mix resulted in increased operating revenues of $20.7 million in the Current Year Quarter and $45.3 million in the Current Six Months, of which $12.0 million and $26.0 million, respectively, were attributable to vessels acquired in the Seabulk Merger. For SEACOR’s fleet prior to the Seabulk Merger, the improvements in average day rates resulted in an increase in operating revenues of $21.4 million in the Current Year Quarter and $37.8 million in the Current Six Months. A net increase in the number of vessels moving to operate under time-charter contracts upon concluding bareboat-out charter arrangements resulted in increased operating revenues of $5.1 million in the Current Year Quarter and $8.2 million in the Current Six Months. This was primarily due to vessels returning to the U.S. Gulf of Mexico following the sale of the Company’s interest in its Mexican joint venture.
International Operating Revenues. Operating revenues in the Latin America/Mexico region decreased $1.9 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and decreased $1.1 million in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months, primarily due to the sale and repositioning of a number of vessels out of Mexico concurrent with the sale of the Company’s interest in its Mexican joint venture. These decreases were offset by the contribution of vessels acquired in the Seabulk Merger which accounted for an increase in operating revenues of $2.8 million in the Current Year Quarter and $5.6 million in the Current Six Months.
Operating revenues in the United Kingdom decreased $3.6 million in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months primarily due to the sale of the Company’s North Sea Anchor Handling Towing Supply vessel and Platform Supply vessel fleet in the Prior Six Months. Operating revenues from Standby Safety vessel operations in the North Sea were consistent both on a Current Year Quarter and Current Six Months basis.
Operating revenues in the Africa region increased $24.6 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and increased $48.8 million in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months. Changes in the fleet mix resulted in increased operating revenues of $20.8 million in the Current Year Quarter and $42.1 million in the Current Six Months, the majority of which was attributable to vessels acquired in the Seabulk Merger. For SEACOR’s fleet prior to the Seabulk Merger, the improvements in average day rates resulted in an increase in operating revenues of $2.4 million in the Current Year Quarter and $5.2 million in the Current Six Months.
Operating revenues in the Middle East region were $8.8 million in the Current Year Quarter and $15.5 million in the Current Six Months of which $5.0 million and $9.6 million, respectively, was attributable to the results of vessels acquired in the Seabulk Merger. The remaining increase was due to the results of a specialty vessel and an increase in brokered vessel activity.
Operating revenues in the Asia region increased $5.2 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and increased $11.4 million in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six
16
Months, primarily due to the results of vessels acquired in the Seabulk Merger and also due to an increase in brokered vessel activity.
Operating Income. Operating income increased $54.9 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter. This was primarily due to higher operating revenues of $24.8 million for the SEACOR fleet prior to the Seabulk Merger arising from improved day rates, $17.1 million of incremental operating income relating to the change in fleet mix and an increase of $20.7 million in gains on disposition of assets.
Operating income increased $98.8 million in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months. This was primarily due to higher operating revenues of $44.7 million arising from improved day rates for SEACOR’s fleet prior to the Seabulk Merger, $36.1 million of incremental operating income relating to the change in fleet mix and an increase of $28.3 million in gains on disposition of assets.
The improvements in operating income for both the Current Year Quarter and Current Six Months were partially offset by higher operating expenses in respect of crew wages, higher repair and maintenance costs, higher drydocking costs and third party management fees.
Fleet Count. Offshore Marine Services’ fleet, comprised of owned, joint ventured, bareboat chartered-in, pooled and managed vessels, is as follows:

(1) Rates per day worked and utilization statistics relate only to those vessels operating under time charter arrangements.
(2) Rates per day worked with respect to any period is the ratio of total time charter revenue earned by vessels that are owned and bareboat chartered-in to total aggregate number of days worked during such period.
(3) Utilization with respect to any period is the ratio of the aggregate number of days worked for vessels that are owned and bareboat chartered-in to total calendar days available during such period.
(4) Available days for a group of vessels represents the total calendar days during which owned and chartered-in vessels are operated by the Company, excluding bareboat chartered-out vessels.
(5) Certain vessels have been included in the statistics for rates per day worked and utilization even though management considered these vessels non-operational for some or all of 2005 and 2006 due to regulatory, operational or maintenance considerations.
(6) The effect on utilization statistics for non-operational vessels was significant. Had the calendar days available for the non-operational periods been excluded, the utilization percentage would have been 93% and 92% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively.
(7) Utilization was lower in 2006 compared to 2005 primarily due to a heavier drydocking and repair schedule primarily for vessels acquired as part of the Seabulk Merger.

(8) Includes anchor handling tugs, maintenance vessels and specialty vessels. Prior to the Seabulk Merger, Offshore Marine Services owned one specialty vessel in this category and partially owned a second through a joint venture.

Operating Revenues. Operating revenues for the Current Year Quarter and Current Six Months reflect the Company’s tanker fleet operations acquired in the Seabulk Merger. During the Current Year Quarter, one vessel ceased operating under a contract of affreightment and began operating under a term contract. As of June 30, 2006, eight of the ten vessels were operated on term contracts and two vessels were operated under contracts of affreightment.
Operating Income. Operating income for the Current Six Months was impacted by regulatory drydocking costs and insurance deductibles of approximately $1.2 million for one of the Company’s tankers following a grounding in Alaska. There were no regulatory drydocking costs during the Current Year Quarter.
Fleet Counts. As of June 30, 2006, Marine Transportation Services operated ten Jones Act U.S.-flag product tankers in the domestic coastwise trade, of which it owns nine and leases one.

Operating Revenues. Operating revenues increased $9.0 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and increased $18.0 million in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months, primarily due to fleet additions and better pricing attributable to the supply and demand for barges being closely balanced. Growth in the Inland River Services fleet increased the number of available barge operating days by 4.0% in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and by 9.5% in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months.
Operating Income. Operating income increased $6.5 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and increased $13.6 million in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months, primarily due to the increases in operating revenue noted above. The improvement in operating income was partially offset by higher operating expenses related to increased towing costs and vendor service charges. These increases were caused by higher fuel and labor costs as well as by changes in operating patterns that resulted in longer barge voyages.
Fleet Counts. As of June 30, 2006, Inland River Services operated a fleet of 1,155 dry cargo hopper barges, of which 787 were owned, 187 were chartered in, 175 were managed and six were joint-ventured. Inland River Services also owns 47 chemical tank barges and seven towboats, three of which are joint-ventured and other assets related to its fleeting services business.

Operating Revenues. Operating revenues increased $9.0 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and increased $18.5 million the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months, primarily due to higher demand in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, continued support of hurricane-related recovery efforts and an overall increase in rates. Flight hours increased by 20.8% in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and by 33.2% in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months. Aviation Services also generated increased international revenues from long-term leases of equipment that had been idle in the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Six Months.
Operating Income. Operating income increased $1.0 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and increased $4.7 million the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months, primarily due to the increase in operating revenues. The increase was partially offset by higher operating expenses related to fleet modernization, including training, wages and taxes. Additionally, repair and maintenance expenses increased due to the timing of major overhauls and management’s decision to place certain of Aviation Services’ new fleet under contractual arrangements with third party vendors for maintenance.
Expenses in the Current Year Quarter and Current Six Months were also higher than in the comparable prior periods as a result of costs associated with rebuilding bases that were damaged by the hurricanes of 2005 and legal costs primarily related to a Department of Justice subpoena.
Fleet Counts. As of June 30, 2006, Aviation Services operated a fleet of 111 helicopters compared to 116 as of June 30, 2005.

Operating Revenues. Operating revenues in the Current Year Quarter increased $1.3 million compared to the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to greater retainer fees. Operating revenues from spill response activities were constant between periods. For the Current Year Quarter spill response revenues were $18.1 million primarily due to a spill response event in Lake Charles, Louisiana. For the Prior Year Quarter, spill response revenues were also $18.1 million primarily due to a major spill response event in the Delaware River that began in the fourth quarter of 2004.
Operating revenues in the Current Six Months decreased $6.7 million compared to the Prior Six Months primarily due to the lower level of spill response activities. For the Current Six Months, operating revenues from spill response activities were $27.0 million compared to $38.3 million in the Prior Six
20
Months. As noted, the Delaware River response event generated operating revenues throughout the Prior Six Months whereas the event in Lake Charles, Louisiana generated revenue only in the Current Year Quarter. The decrease of $11.3 million in spill response revenues was offset by $4.6 million of increased retainer and other project services revenues.
Operating Income. Operating income in the Current Year Quarter increased $1.1 million compared the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to increased revenues from greater retainer fees.
Operating income in the Current Six Months decreased $1.1 million compared the Prior Six Months primarily due to the lower level of spill response activities.
The operating results of Environmental Services are very dependent on the number of spill events in a given period and the magnitude of each. Consequently, spill response revenues and related profits can vary materially between comparable periods, and the operating revenues and profits earned by these spill events in any one period are not necessarily indicative of a trend or of anticipated results in future periods.

Harbor and Offshore Towing Services. Operating results for the Current Year Quarter and Current Six Months reflect the Company’s Harbor and Offshore Towing Services fleet operations acquired in the Seabulk Merger. As of June 30, 2006, Harbor and Offshore Towing Services operated 26 tugs. Operating income in the Current Year Quarter was negatively impacted by several factors including a reduction of traffic in one port due to labor unrest in South America, a shift in overall harbor traffic toward lower tariff jobs consistent with historical seasonal patterns and an increase in regulatory drydocking and repair and maintenance costs.
Corporate Expenses. Corporate expenses increased $4.3 million in the Current Year Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter and increased $8.9 million in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Month, as a consequence of higher salary and related expenditures following the Seabulk Merger.

Net interest expense increased in the Current Year Quarter and the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Year Quarter and the Prior Six Months, primarily due to interest expense on assumed debt as part of the Seabulk Merger. This was partially offset by increases in capitalized interest due to increased spending on new equipment and interest income resulting from higher cash balances and interest rates. Derivative transactions gains (losses), net improved in the Current Year Quarter and the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Year Quarter and the Prior Six Months, primarily due to increased gains on commodity and foreign currency future contracts, partially offset by losses on an interest rate swap assumed as part of the Seabulk Merger. Marketable security transactions gains (losses), net included realized gains (losses) from the sale of equity and fixed income marketable securities and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on short-sale positions.
Equity in Earnings of 50% or Less Owned Companies
Equity earnings increased $3.4 million to $6.0 million in the Current Year Quarter from $2.6 in the Prior Year Quarter, and $8.2 million to $12.4 million in the Current Six Months from $4.2 million in the Prior Six Months. The improvement was primarily the result of a Current Year Quarter gain of $4.2 million in the equity earnings of an offshore marine joint venture resulting from the sale of an offshore supply vessel and a Current Six Months gain of $4.5 million on the sale of the Company’s interest in a Mexican joint venture.
On December 31, 2004, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Era Aviation, Inc. (“Era”). Effective May 27, 2005, the Company sold Era’s regional airline service business for cash consideration of $15.0 million. The operating results of the regional airline service business for the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Six Months have been reported as “Discontinued Operations” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s ongoing liquidity requirements arise primarily from working capital needs, acquisition, construction or improvement of equipment, repayment of debt obligations, repurchase of common stock and purchase of other investments. Principal sources of liquidity are cash balances, marketable securities, construction reserve funds, cash flows from operations and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility although, from time to time, the Company may issue debt, shares of Common Stock, preferred stock, or a combination thereof, or sell vessels and other assets to finance the acquisition of equipment and businesses or make improvements to existing equipment. Fleet size, rates of hire and utilization of the Company’s offshore support vessels, inland barges, helicopters, tankers and harbor tugs and the number and severity of oil spills managed by Environmental Services primarily determine the Company’s levels of operating cash flows.

Cash flows from operating activities increased in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months primarily due to the Seabulk Merger and improved operating results before depreciation and asset sales in all of the Company’s lines of business (see Consolidated Results of Operations discussion above), partially offset by increases in working capital.
Cash flows from investing activities declined in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months primarily from decreased proceeds on the sale of marketable securities and increased deposits into construction reserve fund accounts from sales of offshore supply vessels. These additional cash uses were partially offset by a decrease in purchases of marketable securities and proceeds on the sale of the Marmex joint venture. Capital expenditures aggregated $149.5 million in the Current Six Months. Also in the Current Six Months, the Company sold vessels, helicopters, “held for sale” assets, other equipment and undelivered equipment for aggregate consideration of $138.7 million.
Construction reserve fund accounts were established by the Company pursuant to Section 511 of the Merchant Marine Act, 1936, as amended. In accordance with this statute, the Company is permitted to deposit proceeds from the sale of certain vessels into the joint depository construction reserve fund accounts for the purpose of acquiring U.S. flag vessels and qualifying for the temporary deferral of taxable gains realized from the sale of vessels. Withdrawals from the construction reserve fund accounts are only permitted with the consent of the Maritime Administration.
As of June 30, 2006, construction reserve funds of $192.9 million are classified as non-current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as the Company has the intent and ability to use the funds to acquire property and equipment. During the Current Six Months, construction reserve fund account transactions included withdrawals of $10.2 million, deposits of $76.6 million and earned interest of $3.7 million.
The Company’s unfunded capital commitments as of June 30, 2006 consisted primarily of marine service vessels, helicopters and barges and totaled $631.7 million, of which $429.7 million is payable in 2006 and 2007, with the remaining balance payable through 2009. Of these commitments, approximately $187.8 million may be terminated without further liability other than the payment of liquidated damages of $4.9 million in the aggregate. Subsequent to the end of the quarter the Company committed to purchase additional equipment for $37.5 million.
Cash flows used in financing activities increased in the Current Six Months compared to the Prior Six Months primarily due to repayment of outstanding debt and the Company’s repurchases of Common Stock.
23
During the Current Six Months the Company acquired 336,500 shares of Common Stock for treasury in the amount of $25.8 million. As of June 30, 2006, repurchase authority of $24.2 million granted by the Company’s Board of Directors remained available for the acquisition of additional shares of Common Stock, SEACOR’s 7.2% Senior Notes Due 2009, its 5-7/8% Senior Notes due 2012, its 2.875% Convertible Debentures Due 2024 and the 9.5% senior notes of Seabulk due 2013. Securities are acquired from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions.
Subsequent to June 30, 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors increased the above referenced repurchase authority to $75.0 million.
As of June 30, 2006, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the SEACOR revolving credit facility which terminates in February 2007. Remaining availability under the SEACOR revolving credit facility was $160.8 million, net of issued letters of credit of $39.2 million. During the Current Six Months, the Company terminated Seabulk’s credit facility.
Short and Long-Term Liquidity Requirements
The Company anticipates it will continue to generate positive cash flows from operations and that these cash flows will be adequate to meet the Company’s working capital requirements and contribute toward defraying costs of its capital expenditures. As in the past and in further support of the Company’s capital expenditure program, the Company may use cash balances, sell marketable securities, utilize construction reserve funds, sell additional vessels or other equipment, enter into sale and leaseback transactions for equipment, borrow under its revolving bank credit facility, issue debt or a combination thereof.
The Company’s long-term liquidity is dependent upon its ability to generate operating profits sufficient to meet its requirements for working capital, capital expenditures and a reasonable return on shareholders’ investment. The Company believes that earning such operating profits will permit it to maintain its access to favorably priced debt, equity and/or off-balance sheet financing arrangements.
In the normal course of its business, the Company becomes involved in various litigation matters including, among other things, claims by third parties for alleged property damages, personal injuries and other matters. While the Company believes it has meritorious defenses against these claims, management has used estimates in determining the Company’s potential exposure and has recorded reserves in its financial statements related thereto where appropriate. It is possible that a change in the Company’s estimates of that exposure could occur, but the Company does not expect such changes in estimated costs will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of its operations.
In June 2005, a subsidiary of SEACOR received a document subpoena from the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice. This subpoena relates to a grand jury investigation of potential antitrust violations among providers of helicopter transportation services in the Gulf of Mexico. The Company believes that this subpoena is part of a broader industry inquiry and that the other providers also have received such subpoena. SEACOR intends to provide all information requested in response to this investigation.
Under United States law, “United States persons” are prohibited from business activities and contracts in certain countries, including Sudan and Iran. Relating to the prohibitions, Seabulk filed three reports with and submitted documents to the Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”) of the U.S. Department of Treasury in December 1999 and January and May 2002. One of the reports was also filed with the Bureau of Export Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce. The reports and
24
documents related to certain limited charters with third parties involving three Seabulk vessels which called in Sudan for several months in 1999 and January 2000 and charters with third parties involving several of Seabulk’s vessels which called in Iran in 1998. In March 2003, Seabulk received notification from OFAC that the case has been referred to its Civil Penalties Division. Should OFAC determine that these activities constituted violations of the laws or regulations, civil penalties, including fines, could be assessed against Seabulk and/or certain individuals who knowingly participated in such activity. The Company cannot predict the extent of such penalties; however, management does not believe the outcome of these matters will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Certain subsidiaries of the Company were previously participating employers in an industry-wide, multi-employer, defined benefit pension fund based in the United Kingdom: the Merchant Navy Officers Pension Fund (“MNOPF”). Under the direction of a court order, any deficit is to be remedied through future funding contributions from all participating employers. The most recent actuarial review of the MNOPF determined there was a funding deficit of $412.0 million of which $4.4 million, representing the Company’s share of this deficit, was invoiced and recognized in 2005. Deficits allocable to the Company relate to officers employed between 1978 and 2002 by SEACOR’s Stirling group of companies (which had been acquired by SEACOR in 2001) and its predecessors. In March 2006, the MNOPF was scheduled to undergo an actuarial valuation to determine if additional contributions would be required; however, the Company has not received notification of any new actuarial valuation results. Depending on the results of future actuarial valuations, it is possible that the MNOPF will issue additional invoices requiring the Company to recognize payroll related operating expenses in the period invoices are received.
On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 applies to all tax positions related to income taxes subject to Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. Differences between the amounts recognized in the statements of financial position prior to the adoption of FIN 48 and the amounts reported after adoption will be accounted for as a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to the beginning balance of retained earnings. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and will be adopted by SEACOR on January 1, 2007. The Company is reviewing the new standard and has not determined the impact, if any, the adoption of FIN 48 will have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
For discussion of the Company’s exposure to market risk, refer to Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. There has been no significant change in the Company’s exposure to market risk during the six months ended June 30, 2006 except as described below.
As of June 30, 2006, the Company held positions in short sales of marketable equity securities with a fair value of $62.4 million. The Company’s short sales of marketable equity securities primarily include positions in energy, marine, and other related businesses. A 10% increase in the value of equity securities underlying the short sale positions of the Company as of June 30, 2006 would reduce income and comprehensive income by $4.1 million, net of tax.
As of June 30, 2006, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts in British Pounds Sterling, Euros and Singapore Dollars with notional values totaling £10.0 million, €85.0 million and S$69.7 million. Certain of the foreign currency forward contracts denominated in Euros have been designated as a fair value hedge for capital commitments with a notional value of €53.4 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recognized income of $3.7 million on foreign currency forward contracts, net of a $0.4 million loss on fair value adjustments to the capital commitments.
Subsequent to June 30, 2006, the Company entered into an additional foreign currency forward contract with a notional value of €18.0 million, of which €17.7 million was designated as a fair value hedge related to a commitment made subsequent to June 30, 2006 to purchase certain additional equipment.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of June 30, 2006. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2006.
In conducting management’s evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, the operations of Seabulk, acquired July 1, 2005, were excluded. The business constituted approximately $1.1 billion of total assets as of June 30, 2006 and $17.7 million of net income for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
The Company has recently completed the implementation of a suite of software applications used to accumulate certain financial data for reporting business activities of Seabulk’s operations. This software application implementation was not made in response to any deficiency in the Company’s internal controls and the same suite of software applications have been generally used in the Company’s worldwide operation since the beginning of 2003. Except for the preceding changes there have been no other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Current Year Quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
26
There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
