"In a market where prices are imposed upon everyone, BOURBON is focusing on what
it can control: safety, fleet availability, cost control and cash preservation
by a proactive policy to stack vessels if necessary" says Christian Lefèvre,
Chief Executive Officer of BOURBON. "The group is impacted by the market decline
with less intensity and time lag. BOURBON is putting everything in place to be
the first one ready for the resumption of activity when it will happen, reducing
costs and anticipating the evolution of the clients' needs vis-à-vis vessels
with, as a new paradigm, the digital revolution."
The impact of further spending reductions by oil & gas companies is being felt
globally, with the most significant effects being felt in Asia and the
Europe/Mediterranean/Middle East regions.
Market impacts on BOURBON performance are reflected in lower adjusted revenues
when compared to Q4 2015 at current rates (-5.9%), resulting mainly from:
* Average utilization rate excluding Crew boats declining by 5.0 points to
71.7%, mainly due to increased stacking of vessels
* Average daily rate excluding Crew boats declining 3.0%
There were 47 supply vessels stacked as of March 31, 2016.
Crew Boats segment remained resilient with stable results for revenues as well
as for average utilization and daily rates.

The adjusted financial information is presented by Activity and by Segment based
on the internal reporting system and shows internal segment information used by
the principal operating decision maker to manage and measure the performance of
BOURBON (IFRS 8). As of January 1, 2015, the internal reporting (and thus the
adjusted financial information) records the performance of operational joint
ventures on which the group has joint control using the full integration method.
Adjusted comparative figures are restated accordingly.

Adjusted revenues declined in all segments of Marine Services during the 1(st)
quarter. West Africa, Asia and the Europe/Mediterranean/Middle East regions felt
the greatest impact of declines in average utilization rates and average daily
rates in the quarter. Overall, adjusted revenues in the Americas region
increased slightly. Brazil showed an improvement in average utilization rates
during the quarter, while the average daily rates were negatively impacted by
the weakening of the Brazilian real.

The 1(st) quarter of 2016 was highlighted by the delivery and first operation in
the North Sea of the Bourbon Arctic, a brand new AHTS vessel with more than 300
tons of bollard pull capability. The increase in the number of vessels in the
fleet versus a year ago was offset by the proactive measures to reduce costs,
notably by the stacking of up to 13 vessels in the 1(st) quarter 2016,
contributing to a decline in adjusted revenues of 13.4%. The impact of the
increase in the number of stacked vessels is seen in the average utilization
rate for the quarter having declined both year on year and sequentially. Average
daily rates versus a year ago declined almost 20% as a result of the market
conditions in the global OSV sector.

* Vessels operated by BOURBON (including vessels owned or on bareboat charter).
Adjusted revenues in the current quarter declined compared with the year ago
period due to the combined effect of vessel sales and market conditions. During
the quarter, there were up to 28 vessels stacked, thus significantly impacting
the utilization rate, which declined over 13 points. The average daily rate was
mostly impacted by declines in West Africa, Asia and Europe/Mediterranean/Middle
East regions.

+-----------------------------------+---------+---------+------------+---------+
The Crew Boats segment continues to show its resilience as a preferred solution
by clients in order to minimize their costs versus the use of helicopters. The
impact of fewer projects is seen with the reduction in activity versus a year
ago. However, sequentially, performance was stable with flat adjusted revenues
benefiting from stable average utilization rates and average daily rates.

Adjusted revenues declined 6.2% versus the 4(th) quarter 2015, reflecting the
continued difficult market conditions. The effect of the proactive measures to
stack up to 11 vessels during the 1(st) quarter 2016 is seen in the utilization
rates, reaching 52% for the period, which was relatively stable versus the
4(th) quarter 2015.

Activities included are those that do not fit into either Marine Services or
Subsea Services. Making up the majority of the total are earnings from such
items as miscellaneous ship management activities, logistics as well as from the
cement carrier Endeavor.
OUTLOOK
Oil prices have recently increased from their lows and expectations are that the
current imbalance between oil supply and demand should become more balance later
in the year or next year. While the demand for offshore supply vessels remains
very difficult, 2016 will likely see a low point in the cycle with probably a
slight rebound in the second half of the year. This improvement will be mainly
in the areas of maintaining production of existing oil fields and maintenance of
production units.
BOURBON will focus on excellence in service execution and will strive to
maintain a high utilization rate of the fleet in operation (excluding stacked
vessels) utilizing its international network, mainly with local partnerships.
The group will continue to stack vessels in its supply fleet if there are no
commercial opportunities in the medium term in order to reduce operational
costs.
As the industry remains in this prolonged downturn, BOURBON remains focused on
what it can control: safety, fleet availability, cost control initiatives and
cash preservation.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
* BOURBON's results will continue to be influenced by the ?/US$ exchange rate
