LOGO] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PRESS RELEASE CONTACT: WILLIAM J. DORE', JR. ------------------------------------------------------ Carlyss, Louisiana, (August 6, 2003) Global Industries, Ltd. (NASDAQ: GLBL) reported net income of $0.7 million, or $0.01 per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, compared to net income of $9.8 million, or $0.10 per diluted share for the same period last year. Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $0.3 million, or $0.00 per share, compared to net income of $5.0 million, or $0.05 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 decreased $3.2 million, or 2%, to $154.2 million from $157.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased $41.0 million, or 16%, to $303.1 million from $262.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Mr. William J. Dore', Global's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "This quarter was very busy, both in terms of revenue volume and project complexities. Our revenues were a respectable $154.2 million for the quarter, however, profits were disappointing. Our net income was $.01 per share. Certain uncontrollable and controllable events such as a subcontractor labor work stoppage, weather downtime, and lost productivity had a negative impact on our profits. We are actively enhancing our organization to become more efficient and responsive to these types of events and I am confident we will overcome these obstacles in the future. During the quarter we booked $51.3 million in new work resulting in a backlog of $70.5 million at quarter end." The Company has conformed its segment reporting this quarter to changes in its operating management structure and existing business lines that became effective January 1, 2003. The Company's new reportable segments include two divisions, Offshore Construction Division and Global Divers and Marine Contractors, each with five reportable segments.
