PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS AND EMPLOYEES:
The Company accomplished a major goal in 1994 with its return to
profitability. Net income of $6.2 million marks the Company's best financial
performance since 1983. Earnings, including investment income, before
depreciation, interest and taxes, but after adjustment for minority interest,
increased 65 percent from $9.3 million in 1993 to $15.3 million in 1994; while
operating cash flow increased by $8.6 million from 1993. The key factor in
achieving these improved results was an increase in utilization of the
Company's fleet (excluding the SOUTHERN CROSS, which has not been placed in
service) from 88 percent in 1993 to 99 percent in 1994. These results were
also achieved without significant improvements in dayrate levels or other
underlying market conditions.
While utilization of the Company's fleet during 1994 demonstrated what
is achievable, improvement in its markets during 1995 remains possible but
uncertain at this stage. Based on current contract commitments, the SEAHAWK,
VICKSBURG and RIG 19 are expected to remain profitably employed during fiscal
year 1995. The GOODWYN 'A' self-contained platform rig should also remain
active throughout the forthcoming year and management fees will increase with
that unit commencing drilling operations during the first quarter of fiscal
year 1995. The EAGLE, FALCON, HUNTER and RICHMOND have contract commitments
which should keep those units employed into the second quarter of fiscal year
1995. Ongoing work for these four units is already being pursued, with high
utilization of the Company's fleet and continuing profitability remaining as
important goals for 1995.
Besides achieving profitability, the Company also accomplished another
goal in 1994 when an Australian entity, jointly owned by the Company and
Helmerich & Payne, Inc., was awarded a contract for a new, state-of-the-art
modular platform rig. A project team has already commenced design work. This
new growth opportunity should significantly enhance the Company's results
commencing in fiscal year 1996. We will continue to further capitalize on the
Company's management, services and technical strengths, and to seek profitable
new opportunities for self-contained platform rigs and conversion of the
SOUTHERN CROSS for use as a tender-assist or service support unit.
Opportunities for selective acquisition of existing rig assets will also be
monitored and pursued if there are suitable candidates.
During 1995, the Company will continue to focus on improving and
developing our safety, environmental, quality and performance efforts. We
will also continue to emphasize better understanding of our clients' future
service needs, ongoing improvement of our services, and further developing our
organization for future opportunities. We convey our sincere thanks to our
shareholders and employees whose support is so important as we strive to
enhance the Company's value through continuing profitability and future
growth.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Fiscal Year 1994 Versus Fiscal Year 1993
As a result of 99 percent utilization of its equipment during fiscal
year 1994, the Company's operating results reflect significant improvement.
Total revenues in 1994 increased 27 percent to $68.8 million from $54.2
million. This increase is primarily attributable to a $14 million increase in
drilling revenues, coupled with increases in management fees and dividend and
interest income. The higher utilization of the FALCON, HUNTER and RICHMOND,
coupled with a full year of operation of the SEAHAWK and the relocation of the
EAGLE from Malaysia to Australia, where the dayrate level is higher, accounts
for the increase in drilling revenues. An analysis of fleet utilization and
drilling revenues by rig for fiscal years 1994 and 1993 are as follows:

The FALCON started fiscal year 1994 working in Australia; however, in
the second quarter of the year, the rig was relocated to Malaysia, and during
the last quarter, it was relocated to Korea. Even though the FALCON was 100
percent utilized during 1994, its revenues did not reflect any significant
increase over 1993 because the rig was relocated to work in Malaysia and Korea
where dayrate levels are lower than in Australia due to lower operating
costs. The HUNTER worked the entire year in Malaysia and is anticipated to
remain under contract in Malaysia during fiscal year 1995. During the first
quarter of fiscal year 1994, the EAGLE was relocated from Malaysia to the
Australia/Indonesia "Zone of Cooperation". The impact of higher dayrate
levels for the EAGLE more than offset the slight reduction in rig utilization
in 1994 compared to 1993. The SEAHAWK has been a major contributor to the
Company's improvement in operating results since its commencement of
operations in February 1993. Relatively long-term, stable contracts for the
VICKSBURG and RIG-19 continue to provide consistency to these operations. The
RICHMOND has worked continuously on a profitable basis since March 1993.
In October 1993, the Company sold its forty percent interest in an
Indian joint venture company, realizing a gain of $201,000. Currently, the
Company has no involvement in India. The improvement in management fees is
attributable to an increased level of management services being provided to
two operator-owned platform rigs in Northwest Australia. The increase in
dividend and interest income is due to an increase in interest earned from a
higher level of short-term cash investments.
Increases in rig utilization, coupled with a full year of operations of
the SEAHAWK and the relocation of the EAGLE to the "Zone of Cooperation"
accounts for the 18 percent increase in drilling costs in 1994 compared to
1993. An analysis of drilling costs by rig is as follows:
In millions
Variance
Increase
1994 1993 (Decrease)
Falcon $7.7 $ 7.9 $ (.2)
Hunter 7.6 6.3 1.3
Eagle 10.5 6.1 4.4
Seahawk 6.1 4.1 2.0
Vicksburg 2.2 2.8 (.6)
Rig-19 4.6 4.3 .3
Richmond 3.6 2.7 .9
Other 2.0 3.5 (1.5)
$44.3 $37.7 $ 6.6
Because of increased labor costs, operating costs in Australia are
significantly higher than in Malaysia. Hence, the relocation of the FALCON
out of Australia and the EAGLE out of Malaysia affected the level of drilling
costs for these two rigs. The increase in drilling costs for the HUNTER is
due to its 100 percent utilization in 1994 compared to 70% in 1993. Likewise,
the increase in RICHMOND's drilling cost is due to increased utilization. The
SEAHAWK had a full year of operations in 1994 compared to approximately eight
months in 1993 which accounts for its increase in drilling costs. The
reduction in "other" drilling costs relates primarily to the Company's
termination of its involvement in India.

An analysis of depreciation expense by rig is as follows:
In millions

Partnership rigs $ 9.9 $ 10.1
Seahawk 2.2 1.4
Rig-19 1.2 1.2
Other .3 .3
$13.6 $13.0
The approximate $200,000 increase in general and administrative expense is due
to increased travel and other corporate support activities. Interest expense
relates solely to non-recourse notes payable to a bank group and to the
limited partner by Atwood Deep Seas, Ltd. in which the Company owns a fifty
percent interest. The reduction
11
in interest expense is due to principal reduction and a slight reduction in
average interest rates during 1994 compared to 1993. Due to the Partnerships'
rigs having virtually 100 percent utilization in 1994, the level of net
operating loss
incurred by these rigs in 1994 compared to 1993 declined, thereby, reducing
the amount of loss absorbed by the minority partner from $4.8 million in 1993
to $3.3 million in 1994.
The Company's effective income tax rate for 1994 and 1993 was 10 percent
and 255 percent, respectively. The high tax rate in 1993 was due to the
write-off of certain tax refund claims to foreign tax expense and to the
Company having limited depreciable tax basis in its interest in the
partnerships' assets. Effective October 1, 1993, the Company adopted the
provision of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes". This change in accounting for income taxes
resulted in no cumulative effect being recorded in the Company's statement of
operations.
Fiscal Year 1993 Versus Fiscal Year 1992
Total revenues increased 13 percent for fiscal year 1993 compared to
fiscal year 1992 primarily due to increases in drilling revenues. Higher
utilization of drilling equipment, primarily the RICHMOND, coupled with the
commencement of the SEAHAWK operations, account for the increase in drilling
revenues. An analysis by rig of the increase in drilling revenues is as
follows:
In millions
Variance
Increase
1993 1992 (Decrease
)
Falcon $10.5 $12.1 $ (1.6)
Hunter 6.9 8.6 (1.7)
Eagle 9.2 7.3 1.9
Seahawk 6.3 --- 6.3
Vicksburg 4.4 4.5 (.1)
Rig-19 6.4 6.8 (.4)
Richmond 3.8 --- 3.8
Other 2.1 2.8 (.7)
Total $ 49.6 $ 42.1 $ 7.5
The decrease in revenues for the FALCON and HUNTER is attributable to a
decline in utilization; while an increase in the EAGLE revenues is due to the
rig working 100 percent in 1993 compared to 68 percent in 1992. The SEAHAWK
commenced its initial drilling operations in February 1993. The decline in
revenues for RIG-19 is due to the rig being relocated to a new platform which
resulted in a reduced dayrate period. Prior to the RICHMOND going back to
12
work in March 1993, it had been idle for approximately eighteen months.
Despite the commencement of the SEAHAWK operation and higher equipment
utilization, drilling costs for 1993 only increased $1.7 million or 5 percent.
An analysis of drilling costs by rig is as follows:
In millions
Variance
Increase
1993 1992 (Decrease)
Falcon $ 7.9 $ 9.2 $(1.3)
Hunter 6.3 6.3 ---
Eagle 6.1 5.6 .5
Seahawk 4.1 --- 4.1
Vicksburg 2.8 3.2 (.4)
Rig-19 4.3 4.9 (.6)
Richmond 2.7 1.0 1.7
Other 3.5 5.8 (2.3)
Total $37.7 $36.0 $ 1.7
The decrease in drilling costs for the FALCON is due to the rig having more
idle time in 1993 than in 1992. When a rig is idle, certain payroll and rig
maintenance costs can be reduced. The increase in the EAGLE's drilling costs
is due to the rig incurring no idle time during 1993. The decrease in
VICKSBURG and RIG-19 costs is due to certain reductions in payroll related
expenses. The increase in drilling costs for the RICHMOND is due to the rig
returning to work in 1993.
In 1992, due to adverse market conditions and an uncertain outlook for
improvement in the drilling market, the Company wrote down certain assets by
$17 million. Of this amount, approximately $10.5 million was attributable to
the RICHMOND. Prior to this write-down, the RICHMOND's depreciation was
approximately $3.6 million per year. The reduction in depreciation resulting
from the write-down of the carrying value of the RICHMOND, offset somewhat by
commencement of depreciation on the SEAHAWK, accounts for the reduction in
depreciation expense in 1993 compared to 1992.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
In October 1993, the Company applied the $1.3 million it received from
the sale of its equity in an Indian joint venture company toward the $1.5
million purchase of the SOUTHERN CROSS, a semisubmersible built in 1976
acquired by the Company for future contract opportunities. Before the unit
can be placed in service, an additional capital investment, estimated to range
from $6 to $30 million depending upon the extent of modification, will be
required.
Upon being awarded a term contract in August 1994, the Company and
Helmerich & Payne, Inc. (current owner of 24 percent of the Company's common
13
stock) entered into a joint venture agreement to construct a new generation
platform rig which is scheduled to commence operating in offshore Australia in
early 1996. At September 30, 1994, the Company had invested approximately
$310,000 in this project, with estimated total investment by the Company to be
approximately $13 million. Except for this project and an estimated $4
million to be spent on existing rigs, the Company currently has no additional
significant capital expenditure commitments for fiscal year 1995; however, the
Company has submitted bids and is actively pursuing profitable expansion
opportunities.
At September 30, 1994, the Company continued to have $22.5 million
invested in United States treasury bonds with maturities in the years 2000 and
2001 and $2.5 million invested in equity securities. At November 29, 1994,
these investments had a aggregate market value of approximately $29 million.
The Company portfolio of accounts receivable is comprised of major
international corporate entities and government organizations with stable
payment experience. Thus, the Company continues to experience no difficulties
in receivable collections and anticipates no problems in collecting the $13.9
million of accounts receivable at September 30, 1994.
At September 30, 1994, one of the Partnerships had long-term notes of
$47.4 million payable to a bank group, with the remaining balance of long-term
debt of $6 million payable to the limited partner. The Company has not
guaranteed any portions of these long-term notes. Of the $47.4 million notes
payable to a bank group, Atwood Oceanics, Inc. owns approximately $8 million
which is reflected on the balance sheet as "long-term notes receivable" with a
cost basis at September 30, 1994 of approximately $6 million. The bank
group's primary collateral for its note is the preferred mortgages on the
EAGLE and HUNTER. The bank debt is being repaid in quarterly installments of
$750,000, with a balloon payment of $37.7 million payable in March 1998.
As of September 30, 1994, the Company, under the provision of SFAS No.
109, has net current deferred tax assets of $1.8 million (after applying a
valuation reserve of $7.7 million) and net noncurrent deferred tax liabilities
of $1.65 million. Working capital at September 30, 1994 was $25.2 million
which is $10.5 million higher than at September 30, 1993.
Currently, the Company continues to have all of its drilling equipment,
except the SOUTHERN CROSS which has not been placed in service, under
contract. The key factor in the Company's return to profitability in 1994 was
its ability to maintain a higher level of equipment utilization. Equipment
utilization will again be a key factor in maintaining profitability in 1995.
Based upon current contract commitments, the SEAHAWK, VICKSBURG and RIG-19 are
expected to remain profitably employed during fiscal year 1995 and beyond. On
the other hand, the EAGLE, FALCON, HUNTER and RICHMOND have contracts which
could expire after the first quarter of fiscal year 1995. The Company will
continue to focus on maintaining high utilization of its drilling equipment.
Improvements in underlying market conditions and dayrate levels during 1995
remain possible; however, market uncertainties still exist with no clear long-
term trends.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Atwood Oceanics, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Atwood
Oceanics, Inc. (a Texas corporation) and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1994
and 1993, and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows
and changes in shareholders' equity for each of three years in the period
ended September 30, 1994. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Atwood Oceanics,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1994 and 1993, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended September 30, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Consolidation -
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Atwood
Oceanics, Inc. ("AOI") and all of its wholly owned domestic and foreign
subsidiaries and two Texas Limited Partnerships, Atwood Deep Seas, Ltd. ("Deep
Seas") and Atwood Falcon I, Ltd. ("Falcon"), of which AOI is both a limited
and the general partner (all of such entities being collectively referred to
herein as the "Company"). The other limited partner's interest in the net
assets and loss of the two partnerships is reflected in the Company's
financial statements as "minority interest in partnerships." All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
(See Notes 2 and 5 regarding Deep Seas indebtedness.)
Foreign exchange -
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are
translated to U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange in effect at the end of the
year and items of income and expense are translated at average monthly rates.
Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and translations are
included in drilling costs in the consolidated statements of operations. The
Company incurred foreign exchange losses of $417,000, $140,000 and $456,000 in
1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
Depreciation, maintenance and retirement policies -
Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the following
estimated useful lives of the various classifications of assets:
Years
Drilling vessels and related equipment 8-12
Drill pipe 3
Furniture and Other 3-10
Maintenance, repairs and minor replacements are charged against income as
incurred; major replacements and betterments are capitalized and depreciated
over the remaining useful life of the asset as determined upon completion of
the work. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold,
retired or otherwise disposed are removed from the accounts at the time of
disposition, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated
statements of operations for the applicable period.
Deferred costs -
The Company defers and amortizes the costs of moving a drilling vessel
to a new area on a straight-line basis over the life of the applicable
drilling contract. There were no unamortized mobilization costs at September
30, 1994 or 1993.
The Company defers the cost of scheduled drydocking and the cost is
charged to expense over the period to the next scheduled drydocking (normally
two years).
Federal income taxes -
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of
Page 21
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes".
Under SFAS No. 109, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax
consequences on future years of differences between the tax basis of assets
and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end.
Revenue recognition -
The Company accounts for drilling and management contracts using the
percentage of completion method of accounting, under which revenues are
recognized on a daily basis as earned.
Cash and cash equivalents -
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks and certificates of
deposit which mature within three months of the date of purchase.
Receivables -
Based upon the Company's historical collection of accounts receivable,
the Company has not established an allowance for doubtful accounts.
Investments -
The Company carries its investments in marketable securities at the
lower of aggregate cost or market value. When investments are sold, the
Company uses the weighted average cost method to compute gain or loss.
Loss per share -
Loss per common share was computed by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. The
dilutive effect of stock options is immaterial.
NOTE 2 - LONG-TERM NOTES RECEIVABLE
An analysis of long-term notes receivable is as follows:
(In thousands)
1994 1993
Principal amount of $8.1 million of Deep
Seas' long-term
debt, bearing interest at approximately 5
percent per annum at
September 30, 1994 $ 6,385 $ 6,789
Less - current maturities 400 400
$ 5,985 $ 6,389
Quarterly payments of $127,500 are received on the Deep Seas note. The
Company acquired the note for $2.2 million less than its principal amount and
proportionately recognizes the discount as income ($112,000 and $114,000 in
1994 and 1993, respectively) as principal payments are received.

NOTE 3 - SECURITIES HELD FOR INVESTMENT
At September 30, 1994 and 1993, the Company's investment in securities
consisted of the following:
(In thousands)
Cost Market Value
1994 1993 1994 1993
Equity Securities $ 2,477 $ 2,477 $ 5,458 $ 5,615
United States Treasury Bonds 22,451 22,480 23,270 26,069
Total $24,928 $24,957 $28,728 $31,684
There were no sales of marketable securities in fiscal year 1994 or
1993.
At November 29, 1994, the market value of the equity securities was $5.8
million and the market value of the treasury bonds were $22.9 million
resulting in combined unrealized gains of $3.8 million at such date.
NOTE 4 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
In October 1993, the Company purchased for $1.5 million the SOUTHERN
CROSS, a semisubmersible built in 1976 which has been idle in Australia since
the end of 1992. For the rig to be placed in service, additional capital
investment (estimated to range from $6 to $30 million depending upon extent of
modification) will be required. At September 30, 1994, the Company had
incurred approximately $500,000 in additional costs related to evaluating and
preparing the rig for possible utilization alternatives. The vessel will
remain idle in Australia for an indefinite period of time as the Company
pursues future contract opportunities.
In August 1994, Atwood Oceanics West Tuna Pty. Ltd., an Australian
company owned 50 percent by the Company and 50 percent by Helmerich & Payne,
Inc. (H&P) (current owner of 24 percent of the Company's common stock), was
awarded a term contract for the design, construction and operation of a new
generation platform rig. The rig is scheduled to commence operating in
offshore Australia in early 1996. The Company and H&P have entered into a
joint venture agreement to construct the rig whereby H&P will manage the
design, construction, testing and mobilization of the new rig; while, the
Company will manage the initial installation and daily operations of the new
rig. At September 30, 1994, the Company had invested $310,000 in this
project, with an estimated total investment by the Company to be approximately
$13 million.

NOTE 5 - LONG-TERM NOTES PAYABLE
A summary of long-term notes payable is as follows:
(In thousands)
1994 1993
Note payable to bank group by Deep Seas, bearing
interest at approximately 5 percent per annum at
September 30, 1994, of which the Company owns
$8.1 million at September 30, 1994 $ 47,375 $ 50,375
Notes payable to limited partner by Deep Seas:
Non-interest bearing with maturity in 2011,
net of $3.2 million and $3.3 million discount
in 1994 and 1993, respectively 800 750
Bearing interest at prime rate (7 3/4 percent
at September 30, 1994), with maturity in 2011 5,119 7,284
53,294 58,409
Less - current maturities 3,000 3,000
$ 50,294 $ 55,409
The note payable to bank group requires principal payments of $750,000
per quarter, with a balloon payment of $37.7 million payable in March 1998.
The Company has not guaranteed any portion of this long-term note. The bank
group's collateral for this long-term note consists principally of preferred
mortgages on the HUNTER and EAGLE. The loan documents with the bank group
prohibit the cash payment of management fees, partnership profits and certain
other cash disbursements by Deep Seas prior to the time the note is paid in
full.
The interest bearing note payable to limited partner relates to cash
advances made by the limited partner since 1990 to help fund cash shortfalls
of Deep Seas plus accrued interest on such advances. To reflect the
additional support to Deep Seas operations provided by the limited partner, $3
million and $5 million of these advances were reclassified to "minority
interest in partnerships" during 1994 and 1993, respectively.
The maturities of long-term debt for each of the years ending September
30, 1995 through 1999 are as follows: $3,000,000, $3,000,000, $3,000,000,
$38,375,000 with $5,919,000 due after 1999.

NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
The provision (benefit) for domestic and foreign taxes on income
consists of the following:
(In thousands)
1994 1993 1992
Current domestic provision $ 400 $ 460 $ 131
Deferred domestic benefit (150) --- (3,593)
Foreign provision 476 2,488 1,060
$ 726 $ 2,948 $ (2,402)
Effective October 1, 1993, the Company adopted the provision of SFAS No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". As of October 1, 1993, there was no
cumulative effect of the accounting change for income taxes reflected in the
Company's statement of operations. For fiscal year 1994, the provision of
SFAS No. 109 resulted in a $150,000 deferred benefit. As of September 30,
1994, the Company had deferred tax assets totalling $16.6 million, deferred
tax liabilities totalling $8.7 million and a valuation allowance in the amount
of $7.7 million. The valuation allowance is based on the likelihood that the
deferred tax assets in the amount of $7.7 million will not be realized based
on current outlook for the partnership rigs. The components of the deferred
income tax assets (liabilities) as of September 30, 1994 are summmarized as
follows:
(In thousands)
September 30,
1994
Deferred tax assets -
Net operating loss carryforwards $ 9,090
Investment tax credit carryforwards 4,290

Financial income not subject to
domestic income taxes (2) (16) ---
Other, net (9) 5 ---
Effective incoem tax rate 10% 255% (10)%
At September 30, 1994, the Company had approximately $1.7 million in
investment tax credits and approximately $1.8 million in foreign tax credits
(which commence expiration in 1996) available to reduce future tax
obligations. The Company also has available approximately $25 million in net
operating loss carryforwards and approximately $3 million in investment tax
credits applicable to its partnership interests. These tax attributes can
only be used to reduce future tax payments resulting from partnership earnings
and are subject to various limitations.
As the result of the Company's unsuccessful efforts to collect $3.4
million of previously paid foreign taxes considered refundable, these taxes
were written-off in the fourth quarter of 1993. Legal action is currently
being pursued; however, it will take several years to ultimately resolve this
issue. This additional foreign income tax expense, after adjustment for
minority interest, added $1.7 million ($.25 per share) to the Company's fiscal
year 1993 net loss.
For several years, the Company has pursued legal action to collect
certain tax refund claims in India. As a result of favorable court decisions
in India, and upon the Company providing a letter of guarantee, the Company
received a tax refund of $639,000 (net of taxes on interest and other related
expense), which is reflected in the balance sheet as other deferred credits,
pending ultimate resolution of the issue by the Indian High Court.
NOTE 7 - CAPITAL STOCK
Stock Option Plans -
The Company has a stock option plan ("Stock Plan") under which non-
qualified and incentive stock options may be granted to officers and key
employees through December 5, 2000. The maximum number of shares of common
stock that may be granted under the Stock Plan is 330,000. The Company also
has options outstanding to purchase 32,000 shares (at prices ranging from
$12.25 to $14.75 per share) under an incentive stock option plan ("Incentive
Plan") which expired for future grant purposes on November 17, 1991. Under
Page 26
the Stock Plan, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors
determines the option exercise period, which cannot be less than six months or
more than ten years from the date of grant, and the option prices, which
cannot be less than the fair market value on the date of the grant. The
rights to exercise options under the Stock Plan currently vest over a period
of sixty-three months after the date of grant.
At September 30, 1994, options under the Stock Plan to purchase 222,500
shares, at prices ranging from $9.75 to $13.38 per share, were outstanding,
leaving 107,500 shares available for grant. The rights to exercise these
options vest at 25 percent per year commencing two years after date of grant.
At September 30, 1994, options to purchase 53,000 shares under the Stock Plan
and 5,300 shares under the Incentive Plan were currently exercisable.
Total option activity for the years ended September 30, 1994, 1993 and
1992 was as follows:
1994 1993 1992
Stock options outstanding,
at beginning of year 258,800 242,300 213,300
Stock options granted
(the Stock Plan) 44,000 54,000 42,000
Stock options cancelled (48,300) (37,500) (13,000)
Stock options outstanding,
end of year 254,500 258,800 242,300
Weighted average exercise
price of options outstanding $ 12.19 $ 12.44 $ 14.00
NOTE 8 - RETIREMENT PLAN
The Company has a contributory retirement plan (the "Plan") under which
qualified participants may make contributions of up to 5% of their
compensation, as defined (the basic contribution). The Company makes a
contribution to the Plan equal to twice the basic contribution. Company
contributions vest 100 percent to each participant beginning with the fourth
year of participation. If a participant terminates his employment before
becoming fully vested, the unvested portion is credited to the Company's
account and can be used only to offset Company contribution requirements. In
1994 and 1992, the Company made cash contributions of $702,000 and $732,000,
respectively, and did not utilize any forfeitures to reduce its contribution
requirements. In 1993, the Company used $195,000 of forfeiture to reduce its
contribution requirements which resulted in actual cash contributions of
$477,000. As of September 30, 1994, there remained approximately $162,000
of contribution forfeitures which can be utilized to offset future Company
contributions.
NOTE 9 - COMMITMENTS
The terms of some drilling contracts require that the Company provide
standby letters of guarantee. To support these requirements and the Indian
tax guarantee, the Company has an unsecured short-term line of credit,
Page 27
totalling $3.0 million, with a bank. At September 30, 1994, the Company had
approximately $1 million in outstanding commitments related to the unsecured
short-term line of credit.
NOTE 10 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement No. 107,
"Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments", which will require
the Company to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets
and liabilities recognized and not recognized in its consolidated balance
sheets. Because the amount of its total assets at September 30, 1994 is below
the applicable threshold, the Company is not required to adopt the new
standard until fiscal year 1996.
NOTE 11 - SALE OF EQUITY INTEREST IN INDIAN JOINT VENTURE
In October 1993, the Company sold its forty percent interest in Great
Atwood Limited ("GAL") for $1.3 million which resulted in the Company
recognizing an after tax gain of $201,000. In December 1993, the Company
terminated its involvement in the operations of GAL's two offshore drilling
rigs through cancellation of technical collaboration and expatriate labor
agreements. The Indian joint venture's results of operations attributable to
the Company for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 1994
are as follows:
(In thousands)
1994 1993 1992
Gain on sale of equity interest $ 201 $ --- $ ---
Dividends --- 24 ---
Amortization of deferred gain --- 371 277
Interest income --- 115 208
$ 201 $ 510 $ 485
NOTE 12 - WRITE-DOWN OF CERTAIN ASSETS
In September 1992, due to adverse market conditions and at that time, an
uncertain outlook for improvement in the drilling market, the Company wrote
down certain of its drilling vessels and other assets by $17 million. The $17
million write-down in 1992 added $13.6 million, after tax ($2.06 per share) to
the Company's fiscal year 1992 net loss.
NOTE 13 - OPERATIONS BY GEOGRAPHIC AREAS
The Company is engaged in offshore contract drilling. The contract
drilling operations consist of contracting Company owned or managed offshore
drilling equipment primarily to major oil and gas exploration companies.
Operating income (loss) is total revenues less operating expenses. In
computing operating income (loss) for each geographic area, none of the
following items were considered: investment income, general corporate
expenses, interest expense, minority interest in loss of partnerships and
domestic and foreign income taxes. Identifiable assets are those assets that
are used by the Company in operations in each geographic area. Corporate
assets are principally cash and cash equivalents and investments in marketable
securities. In 1994 and 1993, revenues from 2 customers accounted for 49
percent and 51 percent respectively, of drilling revenues; while in 1992
Page 28
revenues from four customers accounted for 90 percent of drilling revenues.
All of the Company's customers are in the oil and gas offshore exploration and
production industry. This could affect the Company's overall exposure to
market risk in as much as these customers could be affected by similar
economic or other conditions. The Company's portfolio of accounts receivable
is comprised of major international corporate entities and government
organizations with stable payment experience, and, as a result, its credit
risks are minimal. Historically, the Company's uncollectible accounts
receivable have been immaterial, and typically, the Company does not require
collateral for its receivables.
A summary of revenues, operating income (loss) and identifiable assets
by geographic areas is as follows:
