RIG stock’ Financial Results
Transocean announced the third quarter of 2021 financial outcomes on Nov1, 2021.
- For the third quarter of 2021, Transocean recorded a net loss of $130 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, due to controlling interest.
- The adjusted net loss for the third quarter of 2021 was $122 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, relative to $109 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the previous quarter.
- Contract drilling revenues fell $30 million to $626 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021, owing to lower activity for two rigs that went inactive and one rig that started a scheduled shipyard stay during the third quarter.
- Contract intangible loss related to the Songa and Ocean Rig acquisitions in 2018 resulted in a non-cash revenue drop of $57 million in both the third and second quarters.
- Operating and maintenance costs came in at $398 million, down from $434 million the previous quarter. Reduced activity owing to idle rigs and decreased COVID-19-related expenditures drove the sequential drop, which was largely offset by the shipyard and contract process.
- General and administrative expenses increased to $40 million in the second quarter of 2021, up from $39 million the previous quarter. Legal and professional expenses accounted for the majority of the increase.
