OSG Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2007 Results
Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. (NYSE: OSG), a market leader in
providing energy transportation services, today reported results for the
second fiscal quarter of 2007.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2007, Time Charter Equivalent1
(TCE) revenues were $274.2 million, an increase of 27% from $216.3
million for the same period of 2006. The increase reflects the
acquisitions of Maritrans in November 2006 and the Heidmar Lightering
business in April 2007 and an increase in average daily TCE rates for
VLCCs and Handysize Product Carriers. EBITDA1
for the quarter increased 36% to $148.5 million from $109.1 million in
the comparable period of 2006. Net income for the period increased 31%
to $79.0 million, and diluted EPS increased 50% to $2.28 per share
compared with $60.2 million, or $1.52 per diluted share, for the same
period a year ago. Net income in the current quarter benefited from the
sale of the remaining 8.7 million shares of Double Hull Tankers, Inc.
(NYSE: DHT), in which OSG held a minority interest, which resulted in a
gain of approximately $26.3 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, versus
a gain on sale of securities of $3.9 million, or $0.06 per diluted
share, in the same period a year ago. In addition, net income in the
second quarter of 2007 reflected a gain on vessel sales of $5.6 million,
or $0.16 per diluted share, compared with a loss a $3.5 million, or
$0.07 per diluted share, in the comparable period of 2006.
Period-over-period diluted EPS also benefited from the Company’s
repurchase of 17.4% of total shares outstanding since September 2006.
For the first six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company reported a 7%
increase in TCE revenues to $533.4 million from $496.4 million in the
comparable period of 2006. EBITDA for the first six months of 2007
increased 2% to $294.6 million from $289.2 million in the first six
months of 2006. Net income declined 13% to $163.6 million for the first
six months of 2007 compared with $188.6 million in the comparable first
half of 2006. Diluted earnings per share declined 7% to $4.44 from $4.76
in the first half of 2007 compared with the same period a year ago. The
first six months of 2007 benefited from gains on sales of securities of
$41.3 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, compared with $8.9 million,
or $0.15 per diluted share, in the comparable period of 2006. In
addition, the results for the first six months of 2007 reflect a gain on
vessel sales of $5.6 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared with
a loss of $3.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in the comparable
period of 2006.
TCE revenues in the second quarter of 2007 for the International Crude
Tanker segment were $160.3 million, an increase of $14.7 million, or
10%, from $145.6 million, in the same period of 2006. The increase was
principally due to the inclusion of the results of Heidmar Lightering
from April 1, 2007. TCE revenues for the International Product Carrier
segment were $59.2 million, up 20% from $49.3 million in the year
earlier period. The increase was principally due to increases in the
average daily rates earned by Handysize Product Carriers trading both
spot and on time charters and an increase in revenue days attributable
to the delivery of four time chartered-in Handysize Product carriers
subsequent to June 30, 2006. TCE revenues from the U.S. segment were
$48.8 million, up $33.7 million, or 223%, from $15.1 million in the same
quarter a year earlier reflecting the acquisition of Maritrans and the
delivery of the Overseas Houston late in the first quarter of 2007. The
balance of TCE revenues were derived from the Company’s
two International Flag dry bulk carriers.
Morten Arntzen, President and CEO of OSG, commented, "We had an
exceptional second quarter, with notable contributions from our VLCC and
Product Carrier segments. At the same time as we further enhanced
shareholder value by increasing our dividend by 25% and by augmenting
our share buyback program, we continued to invest in global technical
operations and to execute our balanced growth strategy. During the
quarter we enhanced our commercial footprint by increasing our presence
in the larger product carrier sector (LR1s) and establishing OSG
Lightering in the U.S. Gulf. These activities fit perfectly into our
existing global shipping platforms."
Income from vessel operations was $67.3 million in the second quarter of
2007, a 9% increase from $61.9 million in the same period a year
earlier. For the quarter ended June 30, 2007, total operating expenses
increased 38%, or $63.9 million, to $232.7 million from $168.8 million
in the corresponding quarter in 2006. The increase in operating expenses
was principally a result of the inclusion of the Maritrans and the
Heidmar Lightering acquisitions and an increase in chartered-in tonnage.
As of June 30, 2007, OSG chartered in 50 vessels compared with 41 a year
earlier. General and administrative expenses increased $8.6 million, or
37%, in the second quarter of 2007 principally due to expenses of the
Tampa, Philadelphia and Houston offices associated with the Maritrans
and Heidmar Lightering acquisitions.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS Share Repurchase From April 1,
2007 through June 30, 2007, OSG purchased 5,521,191 shares at an average
price of $66.13 per share. Since the initial announcement of its share
repurchase program on June 9, 2006, the Company has repurchased 17.4% of
total shares outstanding at a total cost of $446.1 million. The Company
currently has a $200 million repurchase program in place under which a
total of $168 million remains outstanding.
Future Locked-in Revenue Future
revenues associated with noncancelable term charters as of June 30,
2007, totaled $1.7 billion including time charters entered into by the
Aframax International pool and fixed rate contracts of affreightment
from the U.S. Flag lightering operation, respectively. Such future
revenues exclude the Gas segment.
DHT Sell-down During the second
quarter, OSG sold 8.7 million shares of common stock of DHT. OSG
recognized total gains from the transactions of approximately $26.3
million in the second quarter of 2007, which increased EPS by $0.49 per
diluted share. As a result of the sales, OSG's beneficial ownership of
DHT's common stock has been reduced to zero as of June 30, 2007. OSG
continues to time charter-in DHT’s fleet of
seven vessels that remain subject to valuable extension options.
Quarterly Dividend Increased On
June 6, 2007, the Board announced a 25% increase in its regular
quarterly dividend to $0.3125 per share and declared a dividend to
stockholders of record on August 7, 2007, payable on August 28, 2007.
New Credit Framework During the
quarter, OSG finalized a framework agreement with The Export-Import Bank
of China for the provision of up to $800 million in fixed rate financing
for the construction of new vessels in China over the next five years.
RECENT ACTIVITIES AND QUARTERLY EVENTS Crude Oil Tankers Fleet Expansion and Deliveries
On May 17, 2007, the Aqua, a 116,000 dwt Aframax tanker, delivered to
OSG. OSG has a 50% interest in the vessel, which has been time
chartered-in through May 2010. The vessel joined the Aframax
International commercial pool upon delivery, bringing the pool’s
aggregate vessel count to 38.
OSG time chartered-in the KHK Vision, a 300,000 dwt VLCC through 2012.
OSG has a 50% interest in the vessel, which began trading in the
Tankers International pool in April 2007. The addition of the vessel
brings the Tankers International pool aggregate vessel count to 42.
Redeliveries and Charter Extensions
Two Panamaxes, the Overseas Goldmar and the Overseas Silvermar,
redelivered in May and June 2007, respectively, from time charters
that were at a daily rate of $18,500 per day and in place since the
2005 acquisition of Stelmar. The vessels joined the Panamax
International commercial pool expanding that pool to 22 vessels.
The Overseas Polys was time chartered-out for two years through April
2009.
The Overseas Rubymar was bareboat chartered-out through May 2010 and
will be employed in the Argentinian cabotage trade.
The TI Ningbo and the TI Qingdao, time chartered-in VLCCs in which OSG
had a 50% ownership stake, were redelivered late in the second quarter.
Fleet Diversification
On April 20, 2007, OSG completed the acquisition of the Heidmar
lightering business from a subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Capital Group
Inc. for cash of approximately $41 million. The Houston-based
operation includes a fleet of four International Flag Aframaxes
(including two ships time chartered-in from the Aframax International
pool) and two U.S. Flag workboats and provides crude oil lightering
services to refiners, oil companies and trading companies primarily in
the U.S. Gulf. The business manages a portfolio of one-to-three year
fixed rate cargo contracts. Under the agreement, OSG acquired the
lightering fleet, which is time chartered-in, including a 50% interest
in two specialized lightering Aframaxes, the Sabine and the Brazos.
The lightering operation was renamed OSG Lightering.
Product Carriers Fleet Expansion and Deliveries
OSG purchased two 2006-built 75,000 dwt Panamax Product Carriers,
commonly referred to as LR1 tankers, for a total of $125 million. The
Overseas Visayas delivered on July 18, 2007 and the Overseas Luzon is
expected to deliver in August 2007. The addition of larger size
vessels is part of OSG’s efforts to
diversify its portfolio of Product Carriers to better compete as
product trades shift and globalize.
On May 17, 2007, OSG took delivery of the Overseas Sextans, which
began a three-year time charter. The vessel, a 51,000 dwt IMO III
Product Carrier, has been time chartered-in through May 2017.
Charter Extensions
The time charter-out of the Overseas Rimar was extended to December
2010, the Overseas Atalmar was chartered-out through December 2010 and
the Overseas Petromar was chartered-out for three years through
December 2010. The new charter-out rates were 12%, 23% and 13% higher
than each vessel’s previous charter,
respectively.
U.S. Fleet Deliveries
On June 26, 2007, OSG took delivery of the Overseas Long Beach, the
second in the 10-ship order placed at the Aker Philadelphia Shipyard.
The vessel, which has been chartered to BP, began trading in early
July 2007.
The OSG 242 rejoined the fleet in April 2007. The vessel, an
Articulated Tug Barge, was double hulled using a patented methodology
adding 38,000 barrels of capacity.
FLEET METRICS AND CORPORATE STATISTICS
As of June 30, 2007, OSG’s owned or operated
fleet totaled 107 International Flag and U.S. Flag vessels compared
with 91 at June 30, 2006. Fifty-three percent, or 57 vessels, were
owned as of June 30, 2007, with the remaining vessels bareboat or time
chartered-in. OSG’s newbuild program of
chartered-in and owned vessels totaled 36 and spanned all lines of
business. A detailed fleet list and updates on vessels under
construction can be found in the Fleet section of www.osg.com.
Revenue days in the quarter totaled 8,704, compared with 7,533 in the
same period a year earlier. The increase principally reflects the
addition of the former Maritrans fleet, the OSG Lightering fleet and
the delivery of four Handysize Product Carriers. Revenue days by
segment can be found in Spot and Time Charter TCE Rates Achieved and
Revenue Days, later in this press release.
FINANCIAL PROFILE
At June 30, 2007, stockholders’ equity
exceeded $1.9 billion and liquidity, including undrawn bank facilities,
was more than $1.9 billion. Total long-term debt as of June 30, 2007 was
$1.6 billion compared with $1.3 billion at December 31, 2006. Liquidity
adjusted debt to capital was 23.6% as of June 30, 2007, compared with
14.8% as of December 31, 2006. Liquidity adjusted debt is defined as
long-term debt reduced by cash and the Capital Construction Fund. The
increase in liquidity adjusted debt reflects $427.6 million spent on
share repurchases in the first six months of 2007.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This release contains forward-looking statements regarding the Company's
prospects, including the outlook for tanker and articulated tug barge
markets, changing oil trading patterns, prospects for certain strategic
alliances and investments, the ability of OSG to successfully integrate
the operations of Maritrans and Heidmar Lightering with OSG’s
operations, estimated TCE rates achieved for the third quarter of 2007
and estimated time charter TCE rates for the third and fourth quarters
of 2007, anticipated levels of newbuilding and scrapping, projected
drydock and repair schedule and prospects of OSG’s
strategy of being a market leader in the segments in which it competes.
Factors, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ from the expectations reflected in these forward-looking
statements are described in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2006.
1See Appendix 1 for a reconciliation of TCE
revenues to shipping revenues and Appendix 2 for a reconciliation of
EBITDA to net income.
APPENDIX 1 – TCE RECONCILIATION
Reconciliations of time charter equivalent revenues of the
segments to shipping revenues as reported in the consolidated
statements of operations follow:
Three Months Ended Jun. 30,
Six Months Ended Jun. 30, ($ in thousands) 2007
2006
2007
2006
Time charter equivalent revenues
$274,234
$216,304
$533,418
$496,413
Add: Voyage expenses

41,863
25,366
Shipping revenues
$299,997
$230,753
$575,281
$521,779
Consistent with general practice in the shipping industry, the
Company uses time charter equivalent revenues, which represents
shipping revenues less voyage expenses, as a measure to compare
revenue generated from a voyage charter to revenue generated from
a time charter. Time charter equivalent revenues, a non-GAAP
measure, provides additional meaningful information in conjunction
with shipping revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP measure,
because it assists Company management in making decisions
regarding the deployment and use of its vessels and in evaluating
their financial performance.
APPENDIX 2 – EBITDA RECONCILIATION
The following table shows reconciliations of net income, as
reflected in the consolidated statements of operations, to EBITDA:

EBITDA

$109,114
$294,593
$289,209
EBITDA represents operating earnings, which is before interest
expense and income taxes, plus other income and depreciation and
amortization expense. EBITDA is presented to provide investors
with meaningful additional information that management uses to
monitor ongoing operating results and evaluate trends over
comparative periods. EBITDA should not be considered a
substitute for net income or cash flow from operating activities
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States or as a measure of profitability or
liquidity. While EBITDA is frequently used as a measure of
operating results and performance, it is not necessarily
comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies
due to differences in methods of calculation. APPENDIX 3 – CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
The following table presents information with respect to OSG’s
capital expenditures for the three and six months ended June 30,
2007 and 2006.
