July 20, 2016

HOUSTON, July 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- FMC Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:FTI) today reported second quarter 2016 revenue of $1.2 billion, down 32 percent from the prior-year quarter primarily due to lower activity. Diluted earnings per share were $0.01. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.22, which excludes total Company pre-tax charges of $61 million, or $0.21 per diluted share as detailed in the attached financial schedules.

"Subsea Technologies delivered solid operating margins as we continue to benefit from our execution momentum as well as the savings from our ongoing restructuring activities," said John Gremp, Chairman and CEO of FMC Technologies. Gremp added, "The further deterioration in North America led to a significant impact to our Surface Technologies earnings."

Total inbound orders were $537.9 million, including $334.1 million in Subsea Technologies orders. Backlog for the Company was $3.4 billion, including Subsea Technologies backlog of $2.9 billion.

Gremp continued, "Although the timing around the sanctioning of deepwater projects remains uncertain, we continue to focus our strategy on lowering the cost of deepwater development, and I am confident that our merger with Technip will allow us to further improve project economics."
