SEATTLE, WASHINGTON...November 8, 2007...Todd Shipyards Corporation announced financial results for the second quarter ended September 30, 2007.  For the quarter, we reported net loss of $0.3 million or $0.05 per diluted share on revenue of $27.2 million.  For the prior year second quarter ended October 1, 2006, we reported net income of $0.2 million or $0.03 per diluted share on revenue of $16.5 million.

Our second quarter revenue of $27.2 million reflects an increase of $10.8 million (65%) from the same period last fiscal year.  The quarter to quarter increase largely results from higher ship repair and new construction volumes on a range of projects, including Excavator Barge, USCGC Polar Sea and USS John C. Stennis. 

For the quarter ended September 30, 2007, we reported an operating loss of $1.5 million.  In the prior year quarter ended October 1, 2006, we reported operating loss of $0.5 million.  The increased operating loss in the second quarter of fiscal 2008 versus the second quarter of the prior year primarily results from a year-on-year increase in the share of total work volumes executed under fixed price contracts, which are characterized by higher costs as a percentage of revenue, and cost increases on certain fixed price projects.

We reported investment and other income of $1.0 million and $0.6 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2007 and October 1, 2006, respectively.

For the second quarter ended September 30, 2007, we reported a loss before income taxes of $0.4 million and recorded $0.1 million of federal income tax benefit, resulting in net loss for the period of $0.3 million.  For the prior year second quarter ended October 1, 2006, we reported income before income taxes of $0.3 million and recorded $0.1 million in federal income tax expense, resulting in net income reported for the period of $0.2 million.
