STEINHAUSEN, Switzerland, Aug. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Transocean Ltd. (NYSE: RIG) today reported a net loss attributable to controlling interest of $938 million, $1.06 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Second quarter results included net unfavorable items of $957 million, $1.08 per diluted share as follows:
- $1.128 billion, $1.27 per diluted share, loss on impairment of assets, net of tax; and
- $24 million, $0.03 per diluted share, loss on conversion of debt to equity.
Partially offset by:
- $195 million, $0.22 per diluted share, discrete tax items, net.
After consideration of these net unfavorable items, second quarter 2025 adjusted net income was $19 million.
Contract drilling revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025, increased sequentially by $82 million to $988 million, primarily due to higher revenues associated with improved rig utilization, improved revenue efficiency, higher reimbursement revenues and an additional day in the quarter, partially offset by lower revenues generated by one rig that was idle between contracts.
Operating and maintenance expense was $599 million, compared to $618 million in the prior quarter. The sequential decrease was primarily due to the non-cash cost resulting from the resolution of certain litigation, which did not reoccur in the second quarter, partially offset by increased costs related to increased fleet activity and higher reimbursable costs.
Interest expense was $141 million, compared with $152 million in the prior quarter, excluding the favorable adjustment of $29 million and $36 million in the second and first quarter, respectively, for the fair value of the bifurcated exchange feature related to the 4.625% exchangeable bonds due 2029. Interest income was $10 million, compared to $8 million in the prior quarter.
The Effective Tax Rate(2) was 14.2%, up from (95.8)% in the prior quarter. The increase was primarily due to losses on rig impairments and the release of unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions. Excluding discrete items, the Effective Tax Rate was 70.0% compared to (62.3)% in the previous quarter. In the second quarter, cash paid for taxes was $31 million.
Cash provided by operating activities was $128 million during the second quarter, representing an increase of $102 million compared to the prior quarter. The sequential increase was primarily due to increased cash received from customers and decreased payroll-related payments that regularly occur in the first quarter of each year.
Second quarter 2025 capital expenditures were $24 million, compared to $60 million in the prior quarter.
“We reported a quarter of safe, reliable, and efficient operations, resulting in an adjusted EBITDA margin of 35% and free cash generation of $104 million,” said President and Chief Executive Officer, Keelan Adamson. “This result reflects favorable revenue efficiency driven by high operational reliability.”
Adamson added, “We also continue to improve our balance sheet and are on track to reduce our debt by over $700 million this year, creating long-term value for our shareholders.”
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present our operating results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). We believe certain financial measures, such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Free Cash Flow, which are non-GAAP measures, provide users of our financial statements with supplemental information that may be useful in evaluating our operating performance. We believe that such non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our operating results presented under U.S. GAAP, can be used to better assess our performance from period to period and relative to performance of other companies in our industry, without regard to financing methods, historical cost basis or capital structure. Such non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
All non-GAAP measure reconciliations to the most comparative U.S. GAAP measures are displayed in quantitative schedules on the company’s website at: www.deepwater.com.
