RESULTS IMPACTED BY LEGACY ISSUES; GOOD UNDERLYING PERFORMANCE & PROGRESS
14 February 2013
As in 2011, the 2012 results are overshadowed by the impact of impairments and
provisions for two legacy projects, which hide the good underlying performance
in the core FPSO business. Despite falling short of expectations, revenues were
up 17.1% on 2011 at a record $3.7 billion, while underlying EBIT margins were in
line with or above expectations. Consistent with the core FPSO strategy
announced in 2012, GustoMSC was divested in the fourth quarter. Record financing
levels were achieved, notably with the $1.1 billion project loan for Ilhabela,
and the $ 500 million US Private Placement for Anchieta. In December, the
Company moved further towards a solution of the Yme MOPUstor(TM) legacy project
and restored the balance sheet through an equity injection by cornerstone
investor HAL. Order intake was slow, in line with the industry, as a consequence
of delays in contract awards.
Commenting on the results, Bruno Chabas, CEO of SBM Offshore, said:
"For SBM Offshore, 2012 was tougher than we had expected. Even so, we made
significant progress toward unlocking the outstanding potential of our Company.
In vital respects, such as strategy, structure, ways of working, increased
compliance focus and a renewed management team, SBM is being transformed. As we
move towards closure of our legacy projects, I am convinced that the quality of
performance being delivered by so many colleagues across the Company will begin
to manifest itself in our financial results."

· Turnover increased by 17.1 % to US$ 3,695 million in 2012, and underlying
