SEATTLE, WASHINGTON...February 8th, 2007...Todd Shipyards Corporation (the "Company") announced financial results for the third quarter ended December 31, 2006.  For the quarter, the Company reported net income of $2.4 million or $0.43 per diluted share on revenue of $44.2 million.  For the nine month period then ended, the Company reported net income of $1.9 million or $0.33 per diluted share on revenue of $80.8 million.  For the prior year third quarter ended January 1, 2006, the Company reported net income of $1.5 million or $0.26 per diluted share on revenue of $31.6 million. For the nine month period then ended, the Company reported net income of $8.4 million or $1.49 per diluted share on revenue of $169.2 million.

 

The Company's third quarter revenue of $44.2 million reflects an increase of $12.6 million (40%) from the same period last fiscal year.  The quarter to quarter increase largely results from higher work volumes primarily attributable to work for the Navy on the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln.    

 

Revenues for the first nine months of fiscal year 2007 of $80.8 million reflect a decrease of $88.4 million (52%) from the comparable period of fiscal year 2006.  The revenue decrease in the first nine months of fiscal year 2007 is primarily attributable to reductions in Navy and Coast Guard volumes.  The majority of the Company's Navy work volumes are associated with vessel availabilities executed under multi-year option contracts. In the first nine months of the prior year, revenues were favorably impacted by overhaul work on the Navy aircraft carrier USS Stennis, post shakedown availability work on the Navy destroyer USS Momsen, the scheduled service availability (docking) of the Navy frigate USS Ford and the planned maintenance availability (docking) of the U.S. Coast Guard Polar Sea icebreaker, all of which completed prior to the current fiscal year.  In contrast, the first nine months of the current year coincided with planning and overhaul work on the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln and lower volumes associated with work for the Coast Guard on the Polar Star and Healy icebreakers.

 

For the quarter ended December 31, 2006, the Company reported operating income of $2.7 million, an increase of $0.9 million from operating income reported for the prior year quarter ended January 1, 2006. The year over year increase in third quarter operating income is attributable to the aforementioned increases work volumes.

 

For the nine month period ended December 31, 2006, the Company reported operating income of $0.4 million, a decrease of $11.2 million from operating income reported during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.  As previously described, the decrease in operating income during the first nine months of fiscal year 2007 is attributable to decreases in work for the Navy and Coast Guard. 

 

For the third quarter and nine month period ending December 31, 2006, the Company reported net gains on available-for-sale securities, investment income and other income of $1.1 million and $2.5 million, respectively.  During the same periods ending January 1, 2006, the Company reported net gains on available-for-sale securities, investment income and other income of $0.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

During the nine month period then ended, the Company recorded $1.0 million in federal income tax expense.  During the same periods ended January 1, 2006, the Company recorded $0.8 million and $4.3 million in federal income tax expense, respectively.
