AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2002 (UNAUDITED) 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. All adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods shown are of a normal recurring nature and have been reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or for any future period. The information included in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in this report and the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001. The Company has no material components of comprehensive loss except net loss. Certain financial statement reclassifications have been made to conform prior periods' data to the 2002 financial statement presentation. 2. ISSUES AFFECTING LIQUIDITY The Company's capital requirements arise primarily from its need to service debt, fund working capital and maintain and improve its vessels. The Company's expected 2002 capital requirements for debt service, vessel maintenance and fleet improvements total approximately $109.4 million. The Company expects that cash flow from operations and proceeds from the sale of non-strategic assets will continue to make significant contributions toward working capital and the capital requirements. If operating cash flow is not adequate, the Company believes that the amounts available under the revolving line of credit will be sufficient to meet its capital requirements. Management has taken new initiatives to improve profitability and liquidity during the first quarter of 2002. Due to the expanding market in West Africa, the Company has mobilized two of its Gulf of Mexico supply boats and one Southeast Asia utility boat for redeployment to West Africa during the first quarter of 2002. Additionally, the Company reactivated one anchor-handling tug from "held-for-sale" status and placed the boat into service in West Africa. At the end of December 2001, low-rate voyage charters for three of the Company's tankers expired and were replaced by two time charters and a ten-year bareboat charter at substantially higher rates. On March 15, 2002, a sixth amendment to the credit facility was executed, which is expected to allow the Company to maintain compliance with its financial covenants. On March 22, 2002, the Company closed on the sale of the marine transportation assets of Sun State Marine Services, Inc. ("Sun State") for $3.8 million in cash (see Note 3). The proceeds from the sale of Sun State's assets were used for working capital purposes as permitted by the Company's Credit Facility. The Company continues to evaluate financing alternatives, including a possible equity infusion or other strategic transaction to reduce debt levels and support future growth opportunities. 5 While management believes that the initiatives are sound and attainable, the possibility exists that unforeseen events or business conditions, including deterioration in its markets, could prevent the Company from meeting targeted operating results and its financial covenants. If unforeseen events or business conditions prevent the Company from meeting targeted operating results, the Company has alternative plans including additional asset sales, additional reductions in operating expenses and deferral of capital expenditures, which should enable it to satisfy essential capital requirements. While the Company believes it could successfully complete alternative plans, if necessary, there can be no assurance that such alternatives would be available or that the Company would be successful in their implementation. 3. SALE OF MARINE TRANSPORTATION ASSETS OF SUN STATE On March 22, 2002, the Company closed on the sale of the marine transportation assets of Sun State for $3.8 million in cash. The marine transportation assets consisted of tugs, barges and fuel inventory with a carrying value of $4.3 million. As a result, the Company recognized a loss on the disposal of these assets of approximately $470,000. The proceeds from the sale of these assets were used for working capital purposes as permitted by the Company's Credit Facility. 4. LONG-TERM DEBT On March 15, 2002, a sixth amendment to the Credit Facility was executed, which is expected to allow the Company to maintain compliance with its financial covenants. The amendment reduced the working capital ratio for 2002 and for the life of the term loans and reduced the fixed charge ratio in 2002, with a gradual increase over the remaining life of the term loans. The Company's senior secured notes have not received the rating from the rating agencies required by the note indenture. As a result, on April 15, 2000, the interest rate on the senior notes increased from 12.5% to 13.5%, retroactively applied to December 15, 1999. The additional interest is payable quarterly in the form of additional senior notes, of which a note in the principal amount of $242,391 was issued for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The Company is currently seeking the ratings necessary to return the interest rate to 12.5%. 5. INCOME TAXES For the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, a gross deferred tax benefit was computed using an estimated annual effective tax rate of 36%. Management has recorded a valuation allowance at March 31, 2002 and 2001 to reduce the net deferred tax assets to an amount that will more likely than not be realized. After application of the valuation allowance, the net deferred tax assets are zero. The current provision for income taxes for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 represents taxes withheld on foreign source revenue. 6 6. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Common stock equivalents include 818,000 and 711,000 stock options and 572,000 and 809,000 warrants as of March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and have not been included in the computation of diluted loss per common share as their effect is antidilutive. 7. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company organizes its business principally into three segments. The Company does not have significant intersegment transactions. These segments and their respective operations are as follows: OFFSHORE ENERGY SUPPORT (Seabulk Offshore) - Offshore energy support includes vessels operating in U.S. and foreign locations used primarily to transport materials, supplies, equipment and personnel to drilling rigs and to support the construction, positioning and ongoing operations of oil and gas production platforms. MARINE TRANSPORTATION SERVICES (Seabulk Tankers) - Marine transportation services include oceangoing vessels used to transport crude oil, petroleum products and chemicals between ports and terminals within the U.S. TOWING (Seabulk Towing) - Harbor and offshore towing services are provided by tugs to vessels utilizing the seven ports in which the tugs operate, and to vessels at sea. The Company evaluates performance by operating segment. Also, within the offshore energy support segment, the Company performs additional performance evaluations of vessels marketed in U.S. and foreign locations. Resources are allocated based on segment profit or loss from operations, before interest and taxes. Revenue by segment and geographic area consists only of services provided to external customers, as reported in the Statements of Operations. Income from operations by geographic area represents net revenue less applicable costs and expenses related to that revenue. Unallocated expenses are primarily comprised of general and administrative expenses of a corporate nature. 7 The following schedules present segment and geographic information about the Company's operations (in thousands): THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, ----------------------------------- 2002 2001 ---------------- ----------------- REVENUE Offshore energy support....................................................... $ 43,312 $ 43,159 Marine transportation services................................................ 31,924 29,804 Towing(1)..................................................................... 7,963 8,457 ---------------- ---------------- TOTAL...................................................................... $ 83,199 $ 81,420 ================ ================ OPERATING EXPENSES Offshore energy support....................................................... $ 23,589 $ 24,608 Marine transportation services(1)............................................. 17,670 19,427 Towing........................................................................ 4,471 4,834 ---------------- ---------------- TOTAL...................................................................... $ 45,730 $ 48,869 ================ ================ DEPRECIATION, AMORTIZATION AND DRYDOCKING Offshore energy support....................................................... $ 10,503 $ 8,456 Marine transportation services................................................ 4,548 4,359 Towing........................................................................ 760 729 General corporate............................................................. 417 379 ---------------- ---------------- TOTAL...................................................................... $ 16,228 $ 13,923 ================ ================ INCOME (LOSS) FROM OPERATIONS Offshore energy support....................................................... $ 5,111 $ 5,846 Marine transportation services................................................ 8,254 4,670 Towing........................................................................ 1,589 1,723 General corporate.............................................................

CONTINGENCIES Under United States law, "United States persons" are prohibited from business activities and contracts in certain countries, including Sudan and Iran. The Company has filed three reports with and submitted documents to the Office of Foreign Asset Control of the U.S. Department of Treasury. 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 of the Company's vessels which called in Sudan for several months in 1999 and January 2000, and charters with third parties involving several of the Company's vessels which called in Iran in 1998. Should either of the agencies determine that these activities constituted violations of the laws or regulations administered by them, civil penalties, including fines, could be assessed against the Company and/or certain individuals who knowingly participated in such activities. The Company cannot predict whether any such penalties will be imposed or the nature or extent of such penalties; however, management does not believe the outcome of these matters will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company was sued by Maritime Transportation Development Corporation in January 2002 alleging broker commissions due from charters on two of its vessels, the SEABULK MAGNACHEM and SEABULK CHALLENGER, since 1998. The Company is vigorously defending such charges, believes it has good defenses, but cannot predict the ultimate outcome. In December 2001, the Company was notified by Steamship Mutual, its protection and indemnity maritime insurance club ("the Club"), of additional insurance calls in the approximate amount of $4 million, allegedly due to investment mismanagement by the club's investment advisors causing reserve shortfalls for the club. The Company is vigorously contesting this assessment. Based on recent discussions with the Club, the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of this dispute. The Company is sometimes named as a defendant in litigation, usually relating to claims for bodily injuries or property damage. The Company maintains insurance coverage against such claims to the extent deemed prudent by management and applicable deductible amounts are accrued at the time of the incident. The Company believes that these claims do not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 9. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, ACCOUNTING FOR ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS, which requires companies to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. SFAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company adopted SFAS No. 143 as of January 1, 2002 with no material financial statement impact. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS, which establishes one accounting model to be used for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and broadens the presentation of discontinued operations to include more disposal transactions. SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF, and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 as of January 1, 2002 with no material financial statement impact. 9 In June 2001, the Accounting Executive Committee of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued an exposure draft of a proposed Statement of Position ("SOP") entitled ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN COSTS AND ACTIVITIES RELATED TO PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT. Under the proposed SOP, the Company would expense major maintenance costs as incurred and prohibit the use of the deferral of the entire cost of a planned major maintenance activity. Currently, the costs incurred to drydock the vessels are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the period to the next drydocking, generally 30 to 36 months. The proposed SOP would be effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. Management has determined that this SOP, if issued as proposed, would have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. In the year of adoption, the Company would write off the net book value of the deferred drydocking costs and record the write off as a change in accounting principle ($30.4 million as of March 31, 2002). Additionally, all drydock expenditures incurred after the adoption of the SOP would be expensed as incurred. 10. SUPPLEMENTAL CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION The senior secured notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by certain of the Company's wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries. A substantial portion of the Company's cash flows are generated by its subsidiaries. As a result, the funds necessary to meet the Company's obligations are provided in substantial part by distributions or advances from its subsidiaries. Under certain circumstances, contractual or legal restrictions, as well as the financial and operating requirements of the Company's subsidiaries, could limit the Company's ability to obtain cash from its subsidiaries for the purpose of meeting its obligations, including the payments of principal and interest on the senior notes. The following is condensed consolidating financial information for the Company, segregating the parent, the domestic and foreign guarantor subsidiaries, the combined non-guarantor subsidiaries and eliminations. 10 CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING BALANCE SHEET (IN THOUSANDS) AS OF MARCH 31, 2002 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DOMESTIC FOREIGN NON- CONDENSED GUARANTOR GUARANTOR GUARANTOR CONSOLIDATED PARENT SUBSIDIARIES SUBSIDIARIES SUBSIDIARIES ELIMINATIONS TOTAL ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- ASSETS Current assets: Cash and cash equivalents......... $ 5,230 $ 713 $ 4,431 $ 13,685 $ -- $ 24,059 Restricted cash................... -- -- 1,337 -- -- 1,337 Accounts receivable: Trade, net..................... 107 17,988 29,152 1,823 -- 49,070 Insurance claims and other..... 2,095 967 7,852 199 -- 11,113 Marine operating supplies.........

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report and the 2001 Form 10-K. The MD&A contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in the MD&A are forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations and beliefs reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that they will prove correct. For information regarding the risks and uncertainties that could cause such forward-looking statements to prove incorrect, see "Projections and Other Forward-Looking Information" in Item 1 of the 2001 Form 10-K. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES For general information concerning critical accounting policies as well as estimates, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" in the 2001 Form 10-K. In June 2001, the Accounting Executive Committee of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued an exposure draft of a proposed Statement of Position ("SOP") entitled ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN COSTS AND ACTIVITIES RELATED TO PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT. Under the proposed SOP, the Company would expense major maintenance costs as incurred and prohibit the use of the deferral of the entire cost of a planned major maintenance activity. Currently, the costs incurred to drydock the vessels are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the period to the next drydocking, generally 30 to 36 months. The proposed SOP would be effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. Management has determined that this SOP, if issued as proposed, would have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. In the year of adoption, the Company would write off the net book value of the deferred drydocking costs and record the write off as a change in accounting principle ($30.4 million as of March 31, 2002). Additionally, all drydock expenditures incurred after the adoption of the SOP would be expensed as incurred. REVENUE OVERVIEW The Company derives its revenue from three main lines of business - offshore energy support, marine transportation, and towing. Seabulk Offshore, the Company's domestic and international offshore energy support business, accounted for approximately 52% and 53% of Company revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Marine transportation, under the new name Seabulk Tankers, consists of the Company's Jones Act tanker business, in which it owns ten petroleum and chemical product carriers in the domestic coastwise trade, and accounted for approximately 38% and 37% of Company revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Seabulk Towing, the Company's domestic harbor and offshore towing business, accounted for approximately 10% of Company revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. 16 SEABULK OFFSHORE Revenue from the Company's offshore energy support operations is primarily a function of the size of the Company's fleet, vessel day rates or charter rates, and fleet utilization. Rates and utilization are primarily a function of offshore exploration, development, and production activities, which are in turn heavily dependent upon the price of crude oil and natural gas. Further, in certain areas where the Company conducts offshore energy support operations (particularly the U.S. Gulf of Mexico), contracts for the utilization of offshore energy support vessels commonly include termination provisions with three- to five-day notice requirements and no termination penalty. As a result, companies engaged in offshore energy support operations (including the Company) are particularly sensitive to changes in market demand. 17 The following tables set forth, by primary area of operation, average day rates achieved by the offshore energy fleet owned or operated by the Company and average utilization for the periods indicated. Average day rates are calculated by dividing total revenue by the number of days worked. Utilization percentages are based upon the number of working days over a 365/366-day year and the number of vessels in the fleet on the last day of the quarter. ----------------------------------------------------------- Q1 2002 AHTS/ AHT/ Crew/ Other Supply Tugs Utility ------------------------------ DOMESTIC(1) Vessels(2) (3) (4) 24 -- 30 2 Bareboat-out(4) -- -- -- -- Laid-Up -- -- -- 1 Effective Utilization(5) 59% -- 65% -- Day Rate $6,687 -- $2,666 -- WEST AFRICA Vessels(2) (3) (6) (7) 29 5 7 1 Laid-Up -- 1 -- -- Effective Utilization(5) 84% 86% 89% 97% Day Rate $7,368 $6,613 $3,124 -- MIDDLE EAST Vessels(2) 6 8 8 5 Laid-Up -- 1 1 1 Effective Utilization(5) 83% 75% 81% 77% Day Rate $3,265 $4,571 $1,649 $4,502 SOUTHEAST ASIA Vessels(2) (7) 8 -- 5 2 Laid-Up -- -- -- -- Effective Utilization(5) 59% -- 53% 44% Day Rate $5,510 -- $1,472 -- ----------------------------------------------------------- --------------------- (1) Domestic consists of vessels operating in the United States, the U.S. Gulf of Mexico and Mexico.

(2) Held-for-sale and bareboat-out vessels are excluded from the vessel count. (3) During Q1 2001, one AHTS, one supply boat, and one specialty vessel (Other) transferred from the Middle East to West Africa. During Q2 2001, the Company purchased a crewboat and transferred one vessel in the Crew/Utility category from West Africa to Domestic. (4) Bareboat-out chartered vessels are not included in the day rate and utilization statistics. During Q3 2001, bareboat contracts for two crewboats in the Domestic operating region were terminated and the vessels were returned to the Company. (5) Effective utilization excludes laid-up vessels. (6) One vessel in the AHT/Tugs category worked in West Africa and Southeast Asia during Q2 2001 and earned sufficient revenue to be included in the statistics for both regions. (7) The Middle East - Other category includes a vessel that is in a 50/50 joint venture and not included in the day rate and utilization statistics. (8) During Q3 2001, one crewboat and one utility boat in Domestic region were transferred to "held-for-sale" status. Additionally, the Company transferred one crewboat from Domestic to West Africa. The reduction in the Domestic Crew/Utility vessel count was offset in part by the addition of two crewboats as bareboat-out contracts were terminated during Q3 2001. (9) During Q3 2001, the Company transferred one crewboat and one specialty vessel (Other) from the Middle East to Southeast Asia. Additionally, one crewboat was transferred to "held-for-sale" status. (10) During Q3 2001, one crewboat and one specialty vessel (Other) were transferred from West Africa to Southeast Asia. Also, one vessel in the AHT/Tugs category that worked in West Africa and Southeast Asia during Q2 2001 did not work in Southeast Asia during Q3. Additionally, the Company reactivated one crewboat from laid-up status during Q3 2001. (11) During Q4 2001, one supply vessel was transferred from Southeast Asia to Middle East. Also, one vessel in the AHT/Tugs category that worked in West Africa and Southeast Asia during Q2 2001 did not work in Southeast Asia during Q3. Additionally, the Company reactivated one crewboat from laid-up status during Q3 2001. (12) During Q4 2001, the Company transferred one crewboat to "held-for-sale" status. Additionally, three vessels were laid-up during Q4 2001. 19 Domestic revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was adversely affected by the slowdown in natural gas drilling activity in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico as a result of low natural gas prices. The low level of natural gas prices resulted from above-average inventory buildups and reduced demand due to the mildest winter on record. Exploration and production companies in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico responded by cutting back their level of spending as evidenced by the significant drop in offshore rig fleet utilization rates during the last half of calendar year 2001 and the first quarter of 2002. Although there is still uncertainty in the market, the recent rise in both crude oil and natural gas prices, driven by the conflict in the Middle East, the temporary shutoff of Iraqi and Venezuelan imports and other factors, have led to a recent improvement in utilization rates for jack-up rigs, which should eventually bring about a recovery in the Gulf of Mexico offshore vessel market. As the demand for vessels in the domestic market is primarily driven by natural gas exploration and production, it is difficult to predict what effect the current fluctuation in natural gas prices and the uncertainty in the economic environment will have on demand for the Company's vessels in the domestic market. International offshore revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2002 benefited from increases in vessel count and utilization. In West Africa, the demand for vessels, and hence utilization, remained strong as this is an oil-driven deepwater market with longer time horizons and increasing exploration and production budgets primarily from oil company majors. The Company redeployed four vessels to its West African operations during the quarter. International vessel demand is primarily driven by crude oil production, and during the quarter crude oil prices and demand remained firm. The Company expects international exploration and production spending to continue to increase in West Africa, which should strengthen vessel demand in that area. Revenue and utilization were also up for the Company's Middle East operations. In Southeast Asia, revenue declined from the year-earlier period due to reduced utilization caused by vessel downtimes. Average day rates and utilization for the Company's anchor handling tug supply vessels and supply boats at April 30, 2002 for Domestic, West Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia were approximately $5,700/53.0%, $7,900/87.0%, $3,100/67.0% and $6,100/75.0%, respectively. The Company had eight offshore vessels in "held-for-sale" status as of March 31, 2002. The majority of these vessels was previously laid up. Subsequent to March 31, 2002, the Company sold one vessel. SEABULK TANKERS Revenue from the Company's marine transportation services is derived principally from the operations of ten tankers carrying crude oil, petroleum products and chemical products in the U.S. Jones Act trade and, to a lesser extent, from towboat and fuel barge operations in Green Cove Springs, Florida, which were sold in March 2002. PETROLEUM TANKERS. Demand for crude oil and petroleum product transportation services is dependent both on the level of production and refining levels as well as on consumer and commercial consumption of petroleum products and chemicals. The Company owned eight petroleum tankers at March 31, 2002. Five of these are double-hull, state-of-the-art vessels, of which two have chemical-carrying capability. At the end of December 2001, voyage charters for three vessels expired and were replaced by two multi-year time charters at time charter-equivalent rates 55% above the returns achieved for these vessels in 20 2001. For the third vessel, the Company entered into a ten-year bareboat charter agreement with a major oil company. Beginning in January 2002, the oil company has exclusive possession and control of the vessel. As a result, the charterer incurs and pays all operating costs during the charter period. A fourth vessel also secured a time charter, commencing in the fourth quarter of 2001, at a 25% increase over the expiring rate. Under a time charter, fuel and port charges are borne by the charterer and are therefore not reflected in the charter rates. Consequently, both the revenue and cost side of time charter vessels are reduced by the amount of the fuel and port charges. Our Jones Act fleet is benefiting from a tightening domestic tanker market, which should see a further strengthening as OPA 90 forces out older, single-hull vessels. None of our single hull vessels is scheduled for retirement under OPA 90 before 2007. CHEMICAL TANKERS. Demand for industrial chemical transportation services generally coincides with overall economic activity. The Company operated two chemical tankers and one of the five double-hull vessels in the chemical trade as of March 31, 2002. The chemical tankers are double-bottom ships. The higher day rate environment for petroleum tankers is carrying over into the chemical tanker market as charterers look for quality tonnage to replace older single-hull vessels. The Company's tanker fleet operates on either long-term time charters, bare-boat charter, or pursuant to short-term arrangements. During the three months ended March 31, 2002, six of the Company's tankers operated under long-term contracts. As a result of the change from spot trading to time charters for two tankers and the bareboat charter of a third tanker, the Company expects that revenue and operating expenses will decline in 2002. However, operating income should increase to reflect the improved contract terms. The following table sets forth the number of vessels and revenue for the Company's petroleum and chemical product carriers: THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, ---------------------------- 2002 2001 ------------ ------------- Number of vessels owned.................. 10 10 Revenue (in thousands)................... $ 28,688 $ 28,035 INLAND TUGS AND BARGES. Revenue from the Company's Sun State Marine Services subsidiary has been derived primarily from contracts of affreightment with Colonial Oil Industries (formerly known as Steuart Petroleum Co.) and Florida Power & Light (FPL) and from ship maintenance, repair, drydocking and construction activities. Revenue from all of Sun State's operations totaled $3.2 and $1.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. The increase in Sun State revenue is due to the completion of various large ship repair projects in the first quarter of 2002. On March 22, 2002, the Company closed on the sale of the marine transportation assets of Sun State for $3.8 million in cash. SEABULK TOWING Revenue from the Company's tug operations is primarily a function of the number of tugs available to provide services, the rates charged for their services, and the volume of vessel traffic requiring docking and other ship-assist services. Vessel traffic, in turn, is largely a function of general trade activity in the region served by the port. While the demand for tug services normally tracks overall trade activity, it has increased in certain areas in the wake of the terrorist attacks and the renewed focus on security in U.S. ports. 21 The following table summarizes certain operating information for the Company's tugs: THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, ---------------------------- 2002 2001 ---------------------------- Number of tugs at end of period............... 31 31 Revenue (in thousands)........................ $ 7,963 $ 8,457 Towing revenue decreased by 5.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in revenue is due to reduced vessel traffic in certain of the Company's ports, reflecting the slowdown in international trade. The Company expects that towing revenue in fiscal 2002 will decrease marginally compared to fiscal 2001 due to competition and a less than robust economy. OVERVIEW OF OPERATING EXPENSES AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURES The Company's operating expenses are primarily a function of fleet size and utilization. The most significant expense categories are crew payroll and benefits, maintenance and repairs, fuel, insurance and charter hire. For general information concerning these categories of operating expenses as well as capital expenditures, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Overview of Operating Expenses and Capital Expenditures" in the 2001 Form 10-K. 22 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth certain selected financial data and percentages of revenue for the periods indicated: THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, ----------------------------------------------------- 2002 2001 ------------------------ ------------------------- (in millions) Revenue.............................................. $ 83.2 100% $ 81.4 100% Operating expenses................................... 45.7 55 48.9 60 Overhead expenses.................................... 9.2 11 10.2 13 Depreciation, amortization and drydocking............ 16.2 20 13.9 17 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Income from operations............................... $ 12.0 15% $ 8.4 10% ========== =========== ========== ========== Interest expense, net................................ $ 12.7 15% $ 14.6 18% ========== =========== ========== ========== Other income, net.................................... $ 0.2 0.2% $ 0.3 0.4% ========== =========== ========== ========== Net loss............................................. $ (2.1) (3)% $ (7.2) (9)% ========== =========== ========== ========== THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002 COMPARED WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 REVENUE. Revenue increased 2.2% to $83.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $81.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001. Offshore energy support revenue increased 0.4% to $43.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $43.2 million for the same period in 2001, primarily due to higher revenue from the West Africa operating region offset in part by reduced revenue from the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. The increase in West Africa revenue was driven by higher utilization and an expanded vessel count as offshore exploration and production activity remained strong. The Company took advantage of the expanding West Africa market by (1) mobilizing two of its Gulf of Mexico supply boats and one Southeast Asia utility boat for redeployment to West Africa and (2) reactivating one anchor-handling tug from "held-for-sale" status to active status in West Africa during the first quarter of 2002. Revenue from the U.S. Gulf of Mexico decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001 primarily due to reduced exploration and production activity in response to low natural gas prices and reduced demand. Marine transportation revenue increased 7.1% to $31.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $29.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001. This increase is primarily due to the completion of several ship repair projects at Sun State during the first quarter of 2002. Additionally, the Company entered into a time charter at a higher day rate for one of its double-hull tankers during the fourth quarter of 2001. This was partially offset by reduced revenue on account of the change of two tankers from spot to time charter arrangements and the bareboat charter of a third tanker. Because of a significant reduction in operating expenses, however, operating income should increase. Towing revenue decreased by 5.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in revenue is due to reduced vessel traffic in certain of the Company's ports, reflecting the slowdown in international trade. The Company expects that towing revenue in fiscal 2002 will decrease marginally compared to fiscal 2001 due to competition and a less than robust economy. 23 OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses decreased 6.4% to $45.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $48.9 million for the same period in 2001, primarily due to the change from spot trading to time charters for two tankers and the bareboat charter of a third tanker. Under a time charter, the charterer is responsible for fuel and port charges. Under a bareboat contract, the charterer is responsible for all operating expenses of the vessel. Additionally, operating expenses decreased in the offshore energy support segment as the Company eliminated non-essential expenditures in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico operating region. The decrease in expenditures is offset in part by increased shipyard expenses associated with the completion of various ship repair projects at Sun State. As a percentage of revenue, operating expenses decreased to 55% for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from 60% for the 2001 period. OVERHEAD EXPENSES. Overhead expenses decreased 10.0% to $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $10.2 million for the same period in 2001, primarily due to decreased professional fees and other overhead expense, offset in part by increases in salaries and benefits. Higher headcount and related salary expense for corporate activity resulted in savings on third-party consulting fees and services. The decrease in other overhead expenses is primarily due to lower charges for rent and other miscellaneous items as a result of the elimination of non-essential services and the consolidation of administrative functions. As a percentage of revenue, overhead expenses decreased to 11% for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to 13% for the same period in 2001. DEPRECIATION, AMORTIZATION AND DRYDOCKING. Depreciation, amortization and drydocking increased 16.6% to $16.2 million or 19.5% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $13.9 million or 17.1% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2001, primarily due to higher planned drydocking expenditures for offshore energy support vessels and tankers during the second half of 2001 compared to the second half of 2000. Since there were larger 2001 drydock expenditures, drydock amortization expense is also higher as drydock costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period to the next drydocking (generally 30-36 months). NET INTEREST EXPENSE. Net interest expense decreased 13.2% to $12.7 million or 15% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $14.6 million or 18% of revenue for the same period in 2001. The decrease is primarily due to the combination of lower interest rates on variable rate debt and lower outstanding debt balances under our term loans and revolving credit facility. OTHER INCOME, NET. Other income, net decreased 55.0% to $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from other income, net of $0.3 million for the same period in 2001, primarily due to a gain on asset sales in 2001 compared to a loss on asset sales in the 2002 period. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES CASH FLOWS. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $29.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to $12.6 million for the same period in 2001. The significant increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily a result of (1) higher operating income before non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization in 2002 and (2) timely collection of customer invoices and insurance reimbursements from our insurance club. The average number of days outstanding for trade accounts receivable was 53 days at March 31, 2002 compared to 63 days at March 31, 2001. During the first quarter of 2002, the Company received approximately $5 million in collections from our protection and indemnity insurance club for settlement of outstanding insurance claims. 24 Net cash used in investing activities was $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to $5.2 million for the same period in 2001. The reduction of cash used in investing activities is due primarily to a larger amount of proceeds from asset sales. In particular, on March 22, 2002, the Company closed on the sale of the towboat/barge assets of Sun State for $3.8 million in cash. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was $15.5 million compared to $14.6 million for the same period in 2001. The increase in cash used in financing activities is attributable to larger payments on the term loans from the proceeds of asset sales. RECENT EXPENDITURES AND FUTURE CASH REQUIREMENTS. During the first three months of 2002, the Company incurred $6.9 million in capital expenditures for fleet improvements and drydocking costs. For the remainder of 2002, these capital expenditures are expected to aggregate $18.1 million. Total 2002 expenditures of $25 million will substantially cover all of the Company's drydocking requirements for 54 vessels. Long-term debt and the Senior Notes consisted of the following at March 31, 2002: 2002 OUTSTANDING BALANCE YEAR-TO-DATE AS OF INTEREST RATE AS OF FACILITY PAYMENTS MARCH 31, 2002 MATURITY MAY 1, 2002 -------- -------- -------------- -------- ----------- Tranche A term loan $2.89 million $49.5 million 2004 5.12% Tranche B term loan $0.20 million $24.4 million 2005 5.62% Tranche C term loan $0.62 million $77.4 million 2006 6.12% Amendment fee note $3.00 million $1.9 million 2002 15.00% Senior Notes $0.00 million $82.3 million(1) 2007 13.50% Title XI Financing Bonds $0.45 million $241.2 million 2005 to 2024 6.50% to 10.00% Other notes payable $0.84 million $27.1 million 2003 to 2011 Various Revolving credit facility $6.70 million(2) $2.3 million 2004 7.00% ---------------------- (1) Outstanding balance is net of unamortized discount of $14.9 million (2) Represents net payments The terms of the term loans and revolving credit facility are contained in the Credit Facility between the Company and the financial institutions. For general information concerning the term loans and revolving credit facility, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the 2001 Form 10-K. In addition to the revolver balance, there are $1.6 million in outstanding letters of credit as of March 31, 2002. As a result, the unused portion of the revolver was $13.6 million at March 31, 2002. With the bank's approval, the Company can borrow an additional $7.5 million on the revolver. However, there can be no assurance that the bank will approve additional borrowings under the revolver. On March 15, 2002, a sixth amendment to the credit facility was executed, which is expected to allow the Company to maintain compliance with its financial covenants. The amendment reduced the working capital ratio for 2002 and for the life of the term loans and reduced the fixed charge ratio in 2002, with a gradual increase over the remaining life of the term loans. 25 The senior secured notes did not receive by April 15, 2000 the minimum credit rating from the rating agencies required under the note indenture. As a result, the interest rate on the notes increased from 12.5% to 13.5% effective December 15, 1999. The indenture requires that such additional interest be paid in the form of additional notes, which notes in the aggregate principal amount of $242,391 were issued for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The Company is currently seeking the required ratings that would return the interest rate to 12.5%. The Company is required to make deposits to a Title XI reserve fund based on a percentage of net income attributable to the operations of the five double-hull tankers, as defined by the Title XI bond agreement. Cash held in a Title XI reserve fund is invested by the trustee of the fund, and any income earned thereon is either paid to the Company or retained in the reserve fund. Withdrawals from the Title XI reserve fund may be made for limited purposes, subject to prior approval from MARAD. To date, no deposits have been required. Additionally, according to the Title XI Financial Agreement, the Company is restricted from formally distributing excess cash from the operations of the five double-hull tankers until certain working capital ratios have been reached and maintained. Accordingly, at March 31, 2002, the Company had approximately $13.7 million in cash and cash equivalents that are restricted for use for the operations of the five double-hull tankers and cannot be used to fund the Company's general working capital requirements. Based on current projections, the Company expects to meet the working capital requirements under the financial agreement in the first quarter of 2003 and may then begin to formally distribute available excess cash. The Company's capital requirements arise primarily from its need to service debt, fund working capital and maintain and improve its vessels. The Company's expected 2002 capital requirements for debt service, vessel maintenance and fleet improvements total approximately $109.4 million. The Company expects that cash flow from operations and proceeds from the sale of non-strategic assets will continue to make significant contributions toward working capital and the capital requirements. If operating cash flow is not adequate, the Company believes that the amounts available under the revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet its capital requirements. Management has taken new initiatives to improve profitability and liquidity during the first quarter of 2002. Due to the expanding market in West Africa, the Company has mobilized two of its Gulf of Mexico supply boats and one Southeast Asia utility boat for redeployment to West Africa during the first quarter of 2002. Additionally, the Company reactivated one anchor-handling tug from "held-for-sale" status and placed the boat into service in West Africa. At the end of December 2001, low-rate voyage charters for three of the Company's tankers expired and were replaced by two time charters and a ten-year bareboat charter at substantially higher rates. On March 15, 2002, a sixth amendment to the credit facility was executed, which is expected to allow the Company to maintain compliance with its financial covenants. On March 22, 2002, the Company closed on the sale of the marine transportation assets of Sun State Marine Services, Inc. ("Sun State") for $3.8 million in cash (see Note 3). The proceeds from the sale of Sun State's assets were used for working capital purposes as permitted by the Company's Credit Facility. The Company continues to evaluate financing alternatives, including a possible equity infusion or other strategic transaction to reduce debt levels and support future growth opportunities. While management believes that the initiatives are sound and attainable, the possibility exists that unforeseen events or business conditions, including deterioration in its markets, could prevent the Company from meeting targeted operating results and its financial covenants. If unforeseen events or business conditions prevent the Company from meeting targeted operating results, the Company has alternative plans including additional asset sales, additional reductions in operating expenses and deferral of capital expenditures, which should enable it to satisfy essential capital requirements. While the 26 Company believes it could successfully complete alternative plans, if necessary, there can be no assurance that such alternatives would be available or that the Company would be successful in their implementation. INFLATION The rate of inflation has not had a material impact on our operations. Moreover, if inflation remains at its recent levels, it is not expected to have a material impact on our operations for the foreseeable future. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 142, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS, which establishes a new method of testing goodwill for impairment using a fair value-based approach and does not permit amortization of goodwill as previously required by Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 17, INTANGIBLE ASSETS. An impairment loss would be recorded if the recorded goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002. As the Company does not have any recorded goodwill or other intangible assets, the adoption of this statement had no impact on its financial statements. Also in July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, ACCOUNTING FOR ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS, which requires companies to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. SFAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company adopted SFAS No. 143 as of January 1, 2002 with no material financial statement impact. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS, which establishes one accounting model to be used for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and broadens the presentation of discontinued operations to include more disposal transactions. SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF, and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 as of January 1, 2002 with no material financial statement impact. ITEM 3.
