MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Excluding the SOUTHERN CROSS, which has not been placed in service, thus
far in fiscal 1995, the Company has maintained 100 percent utilizations of its
equipment. In fact, since October 1993, the Company has incurred only eleven
idle equipment days, a 99.7 percent equipment utilization rate. However,
since the EAGLE, FALCON, RICHMOND and HUNTER have current contracts which
could expire in the second, third and fourth quarters of fiscal 1995,
respectively, there is no guarantee that the Company can maintain its current
level of equipment utilization for the remainder of fiscal 1995. The key to
the Company's return to profitability in 1994 and its level of profitability
thus far in fiscal 1995 has been high equipment utilization.
Total revenues increased $2.3 million (14 percent) and $1.4 million (8
percent) in the first quarter of fiscal year 1995 compared to the first and
fourth quarters of fiscal year 1994. The revenue increase in the first
quarter of fiscal 1995 from the first quarter of fiscal year 1994 is primarily
due to a $2.5 million (16 percent) increase in drilling revenues. A
comparative analysis of drilling revenues is as follows:

</TABLE>
Since its commencement of operation in February 1993, the SEAHAWK has
been a significant contributor to the Company's return to profitability. The
HUNTER has experienced 100 percent utilization since April 1993. During
December 1993, the EAGLE was mobilized from Malaysia to the "Zone of
Cooperation" (an area jointly governed by Indonesia and Australia) and since
being relocated has experienced 100 percent utilization. The downtime
incurred in relocating the EAGLE accounts for drilling revenues for the first
quarter of fiscal year 1995 being significantly higher than the first quarter
of fiscal year 1994. The reduction in drilling revenues for the FALCON in the
first quarter of fiscal year 1995 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1994
is due to the rig operating in Korea where dayrate levels are lower compared<PAGE>
PAGE 8
to Australia due to lower operating costs. In September 1994, RIG-19 was
relocated to a new platform and received an increase in dayrate revenue which
accounts for its increase in drilling revenues. The RICHMOND has worked
continuously since March 1993. In October 1994, the Australian operator-owned
GOODWYN 'A' platform rig commenced drilling operations. Since July 1989, the
Company, on a management fee basis, directed the design, construction and
offshore commissioning of the GOODWYN 'A' drilling facilities. The Company
now has responsibility for the operations and maintenance of these facilities
and is compensated on a dayrate basis. The Company's current contract status
for its drilling operations is as follows:
NAME OF RIG LOCATION CONTRACT STATUS
SEAHAWK Malaysia Term contract (estimated completion 1997).
HUNTER Malaysia Drilling the 28th of 30 firm wells (with
eight option wells).
EAGLE Australia/Indonesia Drilling the third of possible seven
"Zone of option wells (if no additional option
Cooperation" wells are drilled, contract could be
complete before the end of March 1995).
FALCON Korea Preparing to be relocated to China to
commence a short drilling program which
could be completed by the end of June
1995.
VICKSBURG Australia Under contract until February 1996 (with
two one year options).
RIG-19 Australia Term contract (estimated completion 1997).
RICHMOND United States Short term contract which could be
completed by the end of June 1995.
GOODWYN 'A' Australia Term contract (estimated completion 1997).
For the three months ended December 31, 1994 compared to the three
months ended December 31, 1993, drilling costs increased $1.6 million or 15
percent. An analysis of drilling costs by rigs is as follows:

The EAGLE's relocation from Malaysia to the "Zone of Cooperation" where
operating costs are higher due to increased labor costs accounts for the
significant increase in drilling costs in the fourth quarter of fiscal year
1994 and the first quarter of fiscal year 1995 compared to the first quarter
of fiscal year 1994. On the other hand, the relocation of the FALCON out of
Australia accounts for its significant reduction in drilling costs. During
the first quarter of fiscal 1994, the VICKSBURG was credited with
approximately $500,000 in personnel tax refunds which accounts for its reduced
drilling costs during that period. Drilling costs for RIG-19 was lower during
the quarter ended September 30, 1994 due to the rig being relocated to a new
platform. As previously stated, drilling operations commenced on the GOODWYN
'A' platform rig in October 1994 whereby the Company has labor responsibility
and is being compensated on a dayrate revenue basis.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Fabrication work has commenced on RIG-200 (the state-of-the-art modular
platform rig jointly owned by the Company and Helmerich & Payne, Inc.). At
December 31, 1994, the Company had only invested approximately $500,000 in the
RIG-200 project; however, based upon the current construction schedule, the
Company will invest an additional $12 million in this project during 1995.
The SOUTHERN CROSS remains idle in Australia as the Company pursues future
contract opportunities. Before the unit can be placed into service, an
additional capital investment, which could be as high as $30 million, will be
required. In addition to pursing a contract opportunity for the SOUTHERN
CROSS, the Company is also pursuing other expansion
opportunities. The Company currently plans to fund the RIG-200 investment
from internally generated funds; however, should the Company receive a
contract for the SOUTHERN CROSS or receive a commitment on another expansion
opportunity, funding of these additional investment opportunities will
probably require the use of a short-term borrowing facility.
During the quarter, the Company's working capital increased
approximately $2.3 million. The Company continues to experience no
difficulties in collecting its accounts receivables. If the Company can
continue to maintain its high level of equipment utilization, cash flow from
operations should continue to remain at approximately $4 million per quarter
for the remainder of fiscal 1995. However, if equipment utilization declines,
cash flow will likewise decline. The Company will continue its emphasis on
maintaining a high level of equipment utilization.
ATWOOD OCEANICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
PART I. ITEM 2
TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS AND EMPLOYEES:
The results for the first quarter of fiscal 1995 reflect the Company's
best quarterly performance since the last quarter of fiscal year 1983.
Excluding the SOUTHERN CROSS, which has not been placed in service, the
Company has maintained 100 percent utilization of its equipment since December
1993. Earnings, including investment income, before depreciation, interest
and taxes, but after adjustment for minority interest, were $4.1 million for
PAGE 10
the first quarter of fiscal year 1995 compared to $3.8 million for the first
quarter of fiscal year 1994. Compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1994,
operating cash flow for the first quarter of fiscal 1995 increased from $3.9
million to $4.4 million.
The key to the Company maintaining its current level of profitability
remains high equipment utilization. The FALCON will complete its current
contract in Korea in February 1995 and then be relocated to China to commence
a short-term drilling program which should keep the rig committed into the
third quarter of fiscal 1995. If option wells are not drilled, the EAGLE
could complete its current drilling program before the end of March 1995. The
RICHMOND and HUNTER could complete their current contract commitments in the
third and fourth quarters of fiscal 1995, respectively. The VICKSBURG has a
contract commitment into 1996, and RIG-19 and the SEAHAWK are committed into
1997. The Company continues to aggressively pursue ongoing employment
opportunities for the three semisubmersibles and the RICHMOND. Maintaining
high equipment utilization will continue to be a challenge; however, through
fiscal 1994 and thus far through fiscal 1995, the Company has successfully
faced this challenge with a 99.7 percent equipment utilization rate.
We are pleased to announce that in late October 1994, drilling
operations commenced on the Australian operator-owned GOODWYN 'A' platform
rig. Since July 1989, the Company, on a management fee basis, has directed
the design, equipment procurement, fabrication, transport and offshore
commissioning of the GOODWYN 'A' drilling facilities. The operation and
maintenance phase of this project will provide additional enhancements to
financial performance. Fabrication work has commenced on RIG-200 (the state-
of-the-art modular platform rig jointly owned by the Company and Helmerich &
Payne, Inc.), with operation in Australia currently scheduled to commence in
late 1996. We are continuing our efforts in pursuing additional new
opportunities which could further enhance our future operating results.
The offshore drilling and service industry continues to change and
remains very competitive. We are committed to achieving higher standards of
excellence in safety and operational performance and to better understand our
clients' present and future service needs. Our goal is to provide superior
services and value to our clients. As we strive for continuation of
profitability and growth, we appreciate the support and commitment of our
employees and shareholders.
