HOUSTON, Nov. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Deep Down, Inc. (OTCQX: DPDW) ("Deep Down" or the "Company"), an oilfield services company specializing in complex deepwater and ultra-deepwater oil production distribution system support services, today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.
OPERATING RESULTS
For the third quarter of 2016, Deep Down reported net income of approximately $1.0 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.6 million, or $0.04 loss per diluted share for the third quarter of 2015.
Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 were $9.2 million compared to revenues of $6.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The increase of just over $3.0 million (51 percent) is a result of the commencement of procurement and manufacturing activities on several offshore projects that were delayed in prior quarters.
Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 was $3.3 million, or 36 percent of revenues, compared to $1.9 million, or 31 percent of revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The $1.4 million, and 5 percent increases in gross profit and gross profit percentage, respectively, are due primarily to increased costs incurred on prolonged fixed-price projects for a large customer that impacted our gross profit and gross profit percentage for the three months ended September 30, 2015, which did not occur during the three months ended September 30, 2016.
The Company's management evaluates its financial performance based on a non-GAAP measure, Modified EBITDA, which consists of earnings (net income or loss) available to common shareholders before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and other non-cash and non-recurring charges. Modified EBITDA for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 was $1.5 million compared to Modified EBITDA loss of $0.01 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The $1.5 million increase is primarily attributable to our increase in revenues and gross profit, as mentioned above.
At September 30, 2016, we had working capital of $14.6 million, including cash of $6.7 million.
Ronald E. Smith, Chief Executive Officer, stated, "More than two years following significant decreases in oil prices, the industry has adjusted to the new normal of lower prices. As companies continue to adapt, the industry is transitioning towards focusing on the total cost of a project, rather than simply pushing for reduced prices.
"This transition is providing unique opportunities for us, as we assist our customers through their project execution strategies. We are also pursuing multiple opportunities where we seek to leverage our core technologies in non-traditional areas of the energy industry, as well as providing innovative solutions for emerging segments of the oil industry.
"While we have seen a reduction in our backlog from recent historic highs, our cost rationalization efforts continue to bear fruit, resulting in as strong a balance sheet as we have ever had.
"We intend to continue adjusting our operations to best serve our customers' needs."
