              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

McDermott International, Inc. is the parent company of the McDermott group of
companies, which includes J. Ray McDermott, S.A. ("JRM") and McDermott
Incorporated.  Unless the context otherwise requires, hereinafter,
"International" will be used to mean the consolidated enterprise.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are
presented in U. S. Dollars, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included.  Such adjustments are of a normal,
recurring nature except for an asset impairment loss ($4,742,000, net of tax of
$2,553,000, or $0.09 per share)  included  in  the  three  and six months ended
September 30, 1996; a favorable insurance adjustment ($12,000,000 or $0.22 per
share) in the three and six months ended September 30, 1995; a gain resulting
from the sale of two power purchase contracts ($20,047,000, net of tax of
$10,565,000, or $0.37 per share) included in the six months ended September 30,
1995.  Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform
with the presentation at September 30, 1996.  Operating results for the three
and six months ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily  indicative  of  the
results  that  may be  expected  for  the  year ending  March 31, 1997.  For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in International's, annual report on Form 10-K for
the year ended March 31, 1996.

NOTE 2 - PRODUCTS LIABILITY

At September 30, 1996, the estimated liability for pending and future non-
employee products liability asbestos claims was $764,127,000 (of which
approximately  $220,000,000 had been asserted) and estimated insurance
recoveries were $650,603,000.  Estimated liabilities for pending and future non-
employee products liability asbestos claims are derived from International's
claims history and constitute management's best estimate of such future costs.
Estimated insurance recoveries are based upon analysis of insurers providing
coverage of the estimated liabilities.  Inherent in the estimate of such
liabilities and recoveries are expected trends in claim severity and frequency
and other factors, including recoverability from insurers, which may vary
significantly as claims are filed and settled.  Accordingly, changes in
estimates could result in a material adjustment to operating results for any
fiscal quarter or year and the ultimate loss may differ materially from amounts
provided in the consolidated financial statements.

Consolidated inventories at September 30, 1996 and March 31, 1996 are summarized

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
         AND  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

McDermott International, Inc. is the parent company of the McDermott group of
companies, which includes J. Ray McDermott, S.A. ("JRM") and McDermott
Incorporated.  Unless the context otherwise requires, hereinafter
"International" will be used to mean the consolidated enterprise.  A significant
portion of International's revenues and operating results are derived from its
foreign operations.  As a result, International's operations and financial
results are affected by international factors, such as changes in foreign
currency exchange rates.  International attempts to minimize its exposure to
changes in foreign currency exchange rates by attempting to match foreign
currency contract receipts with like foreign currency disbursements.  To the
extent that International is unable to match the foreign currency receipts and
disbursements related to its contracts, it enters into forward exchange
contracts to hedge foreign currency transactions, which reduce the impact of
foreign exchange rate movements on operating results.

Management's discussion of revenues and operating income is presented on a
business unit basis as follows:  the JRM business unit (includes the results of
operations of the marine construction services business); the B&W Operations
business unit (includes the operations of the Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation
and Government Groups); and the Industrial Operations business unit (includes
Engineering and Construction operations, barge construction, ship repair and
other industrial operations).  Other business unit revenues include combining
adjustments and eliminations resulting from inter-business unit contracts.
Other business unit income (loss) includes certain adjustments which are not
allocated to the business units, including retiree benefit and legal costs as
well as the impact of combining adjustments on margins of inter-business unit
contracts.  Business unit revenue and income (loss) for the three and six months
ended September 30, 1995 have been restated to reflect the reclassification of
certain operations to B&W Operations from the Industrial Operations business
unit; the allocation of certain expenses to the B&W Operations and the
Industrial Operations business units from Other;  the allocation of certain
expenses from Business Unit Income (Loss) to Corporate General & Administrative
Expense; and to include gains and losses on asset sales and disposals to conform
with the presentation at September 30, 1996.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 VS. THREE MONTHS
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995


JRM's revenues increased $9,205,000 to $368,708,000, primarily due to higher
volume in North America, partially offset by lower activities in the North Sea
and lower leasing activities due to the sale of the DB101 and DB102 to the
HeereMac joint venture.

B&W Operations' revenues increased $16,777,000 to $350,429,000, primarily due to
higher revenues from the Power Generation Group's repair and alteration of
existing fossil fuel steam systems, plant enhancement projects, and replacement
nuclear steam generators for domestic customers manufactured at B&W's Cambridge,
Ontario location.  In addition, the Government Group's commercial nuclear
environmental services had higher revenues.  These increases were partially
offset by lower volume from fabrication and erection of fossil fuel steam and
environmental control systems and Canadian nuclear services.

Industrial Operations' revenues decreased $11,648,000 to $117,132,000, primarily
due to lower revenues from engineering and construction activities from this
business unit's Canadian and domestic operations.  These decreases were
partially offset by higher barge construction activities in this business unit's
domestic operations and ship repair activities in its Mexican operations.

JRM's business unit income decreased $17,756,000 to $7,852,000, primarily due to
lower volume and margins on the Foinaven project, the completion of profitable
Offshore Pipelines, Inc. contracts in West Africa last year, lower leasing
activities due to the sale of the DB101 and DB102, and lower margins in the
Middle East. These decreases were partially offset by higher volume in North
America and improved margins in the Far East.

B&W Operations' business unit income increased $13,118,000 from a loss of
$1,898,000 to income of $11,220,000, primarily due to the Power Generation
Group's higher volume and margins on industrial boilers and replacement nuclear
steam generators and improved margins on repair and alteration of existing
fossil fuel steam systems.  These increases were partially offset by lower
volume and margins on fabrication and erection of fossil fuel steam and
environmental control systems.  In addition, there were higher volume and
margins from the Government Group's nuclear fuel assemblies and reactor
components for

                                       14
<PAGE>
 
the U. S. Government and from commercial nuclear environmental services.  These
increases were partially offset by lower volume and margins on other defense and
space-related projects (other than nuclear fuel assemblies and reactor
components).

Industrial Operations' business unit loss increased $5,787,000 to $10,346,000,
primarily due to cost overruns on the engineering, procurement and construction
contract for a cogeneration plant and cost overruns on domestic barge
construction operations.

Other business unit income decreased $24,203,000 from income of $11,558,000 to a
loss of $12,645,000, primarily due to a favorable insurance adjustment of
$12,000,000 in the prior period and an asset impairment loss of $7,295,000 in
the current period.

JRM's equity in income (loss) of investees increased $24,756,000 from a loss of
$1,903,000 to income of $22,853,000, primarily due to the improved operating
results from the HeereMac joint venture.   The revenues of the HeereMac and the
McDermott-ETPM West, Inc. joint ventures increased from $126,104,000 to
$214,404,000 primarily due to increased volume in the North Sea and North
America, partially offset by decreased volume in the Far East and West Africa.
Equity in income of investees from these two joint ventures increased from
$891,000 to $20,561,000 primarily as a result of higher volume and margins and
foreign currency transaction gains.  There was also higher interest expense as a
result of debt issued by the HeereMac joint venture to finance the purchase of
major marine vessels it had been chartering, including JRM's DB101 and DB102.
Equity in income of investees in the current period also includes income of
$2,168,000 from the amortization of the deferred gain resulting from the sale of
the DB101 and DB102.

Interest income increased $1,091,000 to $9,522,000, primarily due to interest on
the promissory note of $105,000,000 received as part of the consideration from
the sale of the DB101 and DB102.

Interest expense increased $2,382,000 to $23,758,000, primarily due to changes
in debt obligations and interest rates prevailing thereon.

                                       15
<PAGE>
 
Other-net increased $2,687,000 to $4,124,000.  This increase is primarily due to
increases in certain reimbursed financing costs and foreign currency transaction
gains in the current period compared to foreign currency transaction losses in
the prior period.

The provision for income taxes increased $9,531,000 from a benefit of $4,074,000
to a provision of $5,457,000, while income (loss) before provision for income
taxes decreased $11,953,000 from income of $4,980,000 to a loss of $6,973,000.
The increase in the  provision for income taxes is due in part to a reduction in
the provision in the prior period resulting from the reappraisal of tax
liabilities in certain foreign tax jurisdictions.  In addition, International
operates in many different tax jurisdictions.  Within these jurisdictions, tax
provisions vary because of nominal rates, allowability of deductions, credits
and other benefits, and even tax basis (for example, revenues versus income).
These variances, along with variances in the mix of income within jurisdictions,
are often responsible for shifts in the effective tax rate.  As a result of
these factors, the provision for income taxes was 78% of pretax loss for the
three months ended September 30, 1996 compared to a benefit from income taxes of
82% of pretax income for the three months ended September 30, 1995.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 VS. SIX MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

JRM's revenues increased $86,643,000 to $758,305,000, primarily due to higher
volume in North America, partially offset by lower activities in the North Sea
and lower leasing activities due to the sale of the DB101 and DB102 to the
HeereMac joint venture.

B&W Operations' revenues decreased $15,590,000 to $696,058,000, primarily due to
lower revenues from the Power Generation Group's fabrication and erection of
fossil fuel steam and environmental control systems, from Canadian nuclear
services, and from replacement nuclear steam generators for domestic customers
manufactured at B&W's Cambridge, Ontario location.  These decreases were
partially offset by higher revenues from the repair and alteration of existing
fossil fuel steam systems and plant enhancement projects.  In addition, the
Government Group's commercial nuclear environmental services had higher
revenues.  These were partially offset by lower revenues from defense and space-
related products (other than nuclear fuel assemblies and reactor components).

<PAGE>
 
Industrial Operations' revenues increased $4,168,000 to $269,579,000, primarily
due to higher volume from engineering and construction activities in this
business unit's Canadian operations and higher barge construction activities in
this business unit's domestic operations and ship repair activities in its
Mexican operations.  These increases were partially offset by lower revenues
from engineering and construction activities in this business unit's domestic
operations.

JRM's business unit income decreased $12,052,000 to $29,500,000, primarily due
to lower volume and margins on the Foinaven project, the completion of
profitable Offshore Pipelines, Inc. contracts in West Africa last year and lower
leasing activities due to the sale of the DB101 and DB102. These decreases were
partially offset by higher volume in North America and improved margins in the
Far East.

B&W Operations' business unit income increased $11,556,000 to $13,084,000,
primarily due to improved margins on the repair and alteration of existing
fossil fuel steam systems and higher volume and margins on industrial boilers.
These increases were offset by lower volume and margins on the fabrication and
erection of fossil fuel steam and environmental control systems, lower volume on
replacement nuclear steam generators for domestic customers and lower margins on
plant enhancement projects.  In addition, there were higher volume and margins
from the Government Group's nuclear fuel assemblies and reactor components for
the U. S. Government, and from commercial nuclear environmental services and
lower sales and marketing expenses.  These increases were partially offset by
lower volume and margins from defense and space-related products (other than
nuclear fuel assemblies and reactor components).

Industrial Operations' business unit loss increased $6,246,000 to $15,444,000,
primarily due to cost overruns on the engineering, procurement and construction
contract for a cogeneration plant and cost overruns on domestic barge
construction operations.

Other business unit income decreased $24,137,000 from income of $10,483,000 to a
loss of $13,654,000, primarily due to a favorable insurance adjustment of
$12,000,000 in the prior period and an asset impairment loss of $7,295,000 in
the current period.

JRM's equity in income (loss) of investees increased $26,952,000 from a loss of
$2,801,000 to income of $24,151,000, primarily due to the improved operating
results from the HeereMac joint venture.  The revenues of the HeereMac and
McDermott-ETPM West, Inc. joint ventures increased from $318,023,000 to
$385,757,000 primarily due to increased volume in the North Sea and North
America, partially offset by decreased volume in the Far East and West Africa.
Equity in income of investees from these two joint ventures increased from
$4,873,000 to $19,356,000 primarily as a result of higher volume and margins.
There was also higher interest expense as a result of debt issued by the
HeereMac joint venture to finance the purchase of major marine vessels it had
been chartering, including JRM's DB101 and DB102.  Equity in income of investees
in the current period also includes income of $4,313,000 from the amortization
of the deferred gain resulting from the sale of the DB101 and DB102.

B&W Operations' equity in income of investees decreased $31,568,000 to
$4,273,000.  This represents the results of approximately fifteen active joint
ventures.  The decrease is almost entirely due to a nonrecurring equity income
gain of $30,612,000 resulting from the sale of power purchase contracts back to
a local utility in June 1995.

Interest income increased $161,000 to $19,851,000.  This increase is primarily
due to interest on the promissory note of $105,000,000 received as part of the
consideration from the sale of the DB101 and DB102, offset by a decrease
resulting from a reduction in investments in government obligations and other
investments.

Interest expense increased $572,000 to $43,486,000, primarily due to changes in
debt obligations and interest rates prevailing thereon.

Minority interest expense increased $5,694,000 to $14,840,000, primarily due to
minority shareholder participation in the improved operating results of JRM and
the McDermott-ETPM  joint venture.

Other-net increased $4,325,000 from expense of $1,773,000 to income of
$2,552,000.  This increase is primarily due to increases in certain reimbursed
financing costs  and lower bank fees and discounts on the sales of certain
accounts receivable.

                                       18

The provision for income taxes decreased $3,580,000 to $5,223,000, while income
(loss) before provision for income taxes decreased from income of $26,689,000 to
a loss of $15,031,000.  The decrease in the provision for income taxes is
primarily due to a decrease in income, offset, in part, due to a reduction in
the provision in the prior period resulting from the reappraisal of tax
liabilities in certain foreign tax jurisdictions.  In addition, International
operates in many different tax jurisdictions.  Within these jurisdictions, tax
provisions vary because of nominal rates, allowability of deductions, credits
and other benefits, and even tax basis (for example, revenues versus income).
These variances, along with variances in the mix of income within jurisdictions,
are often responsible for shifts in the effective tax rate.  As a result of
these factors, the provision for income taxes was 35% of pretax loss for the six
months ended September 30, 1996 compared to a provision for income taxes of 33%
of pretax income for the six months ended September 30, 1995.

In general, International's business units are capital intensive and rely on
large contracts for a substantial amount of their revenues.

JRM's consolidated backlog increased to $1,450,003,000 at September 30, 1996
from $977,896,000 at March 31, 1996, and backlog relating to contracts to be
performed by JRM's unconsolidated joint ventures (not included above) increased
to $1,474,000,000 at September 30, 1996 from $1,374,000,000 at March 31, 1996.
JRM believes its markets are beginning to emerge from the difficult competitive
environment that has put pressure on margins in recent years.  JRM also believes
that these strong markets and increased

                                       19
<PAGE>
 
backlog suggest improving financial results over the longer term.  However, in
this historically seasonal business, JRM does not expect second half results to
be as profitable as in the first half.  JRM does expect asset sales in the
second half to partially offset the seasonal results.

B&W Operations' backlog at September 30, 1996 was $2,131,288,000 compared to
$2,164,507,000 at March 31, 1996.  At September 30, 1996 this business unit's
backlog with the U.S. Government was $678,141,000 (of which $45,913,000 had not
been funded) and included orders for nuclear fuel assemblies and reactor
components for the U.S. Navy. This business unit's foreign markets for
industrial and utility boilers remain strong and the U. S. market for
replacement nuclear steam generators is expected to continue to make significant
contributions to operating income in the foreseeable future.  However, domestic
utility markets remain weak.

Industrial Operations' backlog at September 30, 1996 was $340,117,000, compared
to $317,401,000 at March 31, 1996, and included a four year backlog for the
construction of hopper barges at its domestic shipyard.  At September 30, 1996,
this business unit's backlog with the U.S. Government was $45,979,000 (of which
$3,094,000 had not been funded).

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

Unless the context otherwise requires, hereinafter the "Delaware Company" will
be used to mean McDermott Incorporated, a Delaware corporation which is a
subsidiary of International, and the  Delaware Company's consolidated
subsidiaries, which include The Babcock & Wilcox Company ("B&W").

During the six months ended September 30, 1996, International's cash and cash
equivalents increased $17,264,000 to $255,927,000 and total debt increased
$355,106,000 to $1,165,620,000 due to increases in short and long-term
borrowings of $127,236,000 and $244,375,000 (which includes the issuance of
JRM's 9.375% Senior Subordinated Notes), respectively.  During this period,
International used cash of $70,125,000 in operating activities;  $59,158,000 for
additions to property, plant and

                                       20
<PAGE>
 
equipment; $187,484,000, net, for purchases of investments; $31,394,000 for
dividends on International's common and preferred stock; and $15,238,000 for
repayment of long-term debt and received cash proceeds of $20,141,000 from the
sale and disposal of assets.

Pursuant to an agreement with a majority of its principal insurers,
International negotiates and settles products liability asbestos claims from
non-employees and bills these amounts to the appropriate insurers.   As a result
of collection delays inherent in this process, reimbursement is usually delayed
for three months or more.  While the number of claims received had declined
during the last six months of fiscal year 1996, they have increased during the
first six months of fiscal year 1997 but not to the levels experienced from
October 1994 to September 1995.  Management is currently investigating and
evaluating the basis for this increase in the number of claims. The average
amount of these claims (historical average of approximately $5,500 per claim
over the last three years) has continued to rise.  Claims paid during the six
months ended September 30, 1996 were  $79,861,000, of which $71,790,000 has been
recovered or is due from insurers. At September 30, 1996, receivables of
$79,618,000 were due from insurers for reimbursement of settled claims including
$17,059,000 due from certain insurers which have refused to reimburse B&W for
amounts paid by B&W to settle claims under applicable policies.  B&W has filed a
lawsuit against these insurers seeking reimbursement of these claims and expects
to prevail in this litigation which may continue beyond fiscal year 1997 unless
a settlement is reached.  B&W will require that any settlement reimburse B&W for
all amounts billed to date and any future payments up to full policy limits. The
increase in amounts classified current for products liability asbestos claims
and insurance recoverable at September 30, 1996 reflects management's intention
to reduce the level of unpaid asserted claims over the next several quarters
subject to insurers' concurrence.  Estimated liabilities for pending and future
non-employee products liability asbestos claims are derived from International's
claims history and constitute management's best estimate of such future costs.
Estimated insurance recoveries are based upon analysis of insurers providing
coverage of the estimated liabilities.  Inherent in the estimate of such
liabilities and recoveries are expected trends in claim severity and frequency
and other factors, including recoverability from insurers, which may vary
significantly as claims are filed and settled.

                                       21
<PAGE>
 
Accordingly, the ultimate loss may differ materially from amounts provided in
the consolidated financial statements.  Settlement of the liability is expected
to occur over approximately the next 25 years.  The collection delays (including
the lawsuit mentioned above), and the amount of claims paid for which insurance
recovery is not probable, have not had a material adverse effect on
International's liquidity, and management believes, based on information
currently available, that they will not have a material adverse effect on
liquidity in the future.

Expenditures for property, plant and equipment increased $20,492,000 to
$59,158,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1996 compared with the same
period last year.  In addition to maintaining existing facilities and equipment,
these expenditures included $4,887,000 for the purchase of a cable lay vessel
and modifications thereon which operates in the North Sea; $4,167,000 for cable
lay equipment, which includes a deep bury plow used in the installation of fiber
optic cable; and $9,613,000 to upgrade a marine barge operating in the Gulf of
Mexico.

At September 30, and March 31, 1996, B&W had sold, with limited recourse, an
undivided interest in a designated pool of qualified accounts receivable of
approximately $87,000,000 and $107,000,000, respectively, under the terms of an
agreement with a U.S. bank.   The maximum sales limit available under the
agreement, which is renewed annually, is $140,000,000.  Depending on the amount
of qualified accounts receivable available for the pool the amount sold to the
bank can vary (but not greater than the maximum sales limit available) from time
to time.

At September 30, and March 31, 1996, International had available to it various
uncommitted short-term lines of credit totaling $433,807,000 and $439,610,000,
respectively.  Borrowings against these lines of credit at September 30 and
March 31, 1996 were $252,175,000 and $149,067,000, respectively.  In addition,
B&W had available to it a $150,000,000  unsecured and committed revolving credit
facility.  Borrowings against this facility at September 30 and March 31, 1996
were $75,000,000 and $50,000,000, respectively.  It is a condition to borrowing
under this revolving credit facility that the borrower's tangible net worth,
debt to capitalization, and interest coverage as defined in the agreement meet
or exceed certain covenant requirements.  JRM also had an unsecured and
committed revolving credit facility which contains a debt to

                                       22
<PAGE>
 
capitalization covenant which limit's its incremental borrowing capacity to
$2,600,000 at September 30, 1996.    There were no borrowings outstanding on
this facility at September 30 or March 31, 1996.  While JRM has various
committed short-term lines of credit with limits in excess of current borrowings
($43,559,000 at September 30, 1996), borrowings against these short-term lines
is also limited to an additional $2,600,000. This limitation is not expected to
impact the liquidity of JRM, primarily because of the availability of
$137,842,000 in cash and cash equivalents.   In addition, JRM is restricted, as
a result of the consolidated tangible net worth covenant in this agreement, to
pay cash dividends to its public shareholders or to transfer funds through cash
dividends or through unsecured loans or investments to McDermott International,
Inc. and its subsidiaries.    At September 30, 1996, approximately $23,000,000
of JRM's net assets were not subject to this restriction.

The Delaware Company is restricted, as a result of covenants in certain credit
agreements, in its ability to transfer funds to McDermott International, Inc.
and its subsidiaries through cash dividends or through unsecured loans or
investments.  At September 30, 1996, substantially all of the net assets of the
Delaware Company were subject to such restrictions.  It is not expected that
these restrictions will have any significant effect on McDermott International
Inc.'s liquidity.

International maintains an investment portfolio of government obligations and
other investments.  The fair value of short-term investments and the long-term
portfolio at September 30, 1996 was $432,253,000. At September 30, 1996,
approximately $115,494,000 fair value of these investments were pledged to
secure a letter of credit in connection with a long-term loan and certain
reinsurance agreements.

Working capital decreased $128,794,000 from $331,986,000 at March 31, 1996 to
$203,192,000 at September 30, 1996 due in part to the current classification of
JRM's 12.875% Guaranteed Senior Notes as JRM plans to call the Notes for
redemption in the second quarter of fiscal year 1998.  During the September
quarter, JRM issued $250,000,000 principal amount of 9.375% Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2006 and received net proceeds of $244,375,000 which were used
primarily to repay intercompany indebtedness (including interest) of
approximately $239,000,000 owed to McDermott

International, Inc.  McDermott International, Inc. used $50,000,000 of the
proceeds to reduce short-term debt and invested the remainder of the proceeds in
its investment portfolio.  During the remainder of fiscal year 1997,
International expects to obtain funds to meet working capital, capital
expenditure and debt maturity requirements from operating activities, sales of
non-strategic assets and borrowings under its short-term lines of credit.
Leasing agreements for equipment, which are short-term in nature, are not
expected to impact International's liquidity or capital resources.  Also during
the September quarter, the sale of certain equipment to the HeereMac joint
venture was completed.  Prior to this sale, JRM had received $30,000,000 as a
deposit in March 1996.

International has provided a valuation allowance  for deferred tax assets which
cannot be realized through carrybacks and future reversals of existing taxable
temporary differences.  Management believes that remaining deferred tax assets
in all other tax jurisdictions are realizable through carrybacks and future
reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, and, if necessary, the
implementation of tax planning strategies involving sales of appreciated assets.
A major uncertainty that affects the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets
is the possibility of declines in value of appreciated assets involved in
identified tax planning strategies.  This factor has been considered in
determining the valuation allowance.  Management will continue to assess the
adequacy of the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis.

On October 7, 1996, McDermott International, Inc. announced that its board of
directors has directed management to begin to implement a series of steps to
improve International's financial and operating performance.  Management has
been directed to focus International on its core business lines and dispose of
non-core businesses and underperforming assets. Core business lines include the
power generation and government operations of B&W and the marine construction
operations of JRM.  Management was also directed to realign the operations of
B&W's Power Generation Group consistent with the current demands of the
worldwide power generation market.  This is expected to include the
rationalization of manufacturing overcapacity and continued reduction in
personnel.  Finally, management was directed to continue efforts to reduce
personnel and other costs at the operating and corporate headquarters of both
International and JRM.  Although

                                       24
<PAGE>
 
business and asset disposal plans associated with this directive have not been
finalized, it is anticipated that these disposals will negatively impact near-
term operating results, while having a positive long-term impact on operations.
It is also anticipated that these disposals will have a positive impact on
liquidity, both upon disposition and long-term.

At the November 7, 1996 Board of Directors Meeting, McDermott International,
Inc.'s quarterly dividend on its common stock was reduced from $0.25 per share
to $0.05 per share.

New Accounting Standard
- -----------------------

In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," effective for
transactions occurring after December 31, 1996.  SFAS No. 125 established
accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial
assets and extinguishment of liabilities.  This statement also provides
consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are
sales from transfers that are secured borrowings.  International has not yet
finalized its review of the impact of this statement, but it is not expected to
have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
