HOUSTON, Oct. 27, 2011

HOUSTON, Oct. 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Cameron (NYSE: CAM) reported net income of $164.5 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, compared with net income of $148.7 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2010.  The third quarter 2011 results include pre-tax charges of $34.2 million, or $0.11 per share, primarily related to costs associated with retiring the Company's convertible debentures, litigation and mark-to-market losses associated with foreign currency derivatives (see attached reconciliation). The third quarter 2010 results included pre-tax charges of $10.4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, related to the integration of the NATCO Group Inc. acquisition, as well as litigation and severance costs.

Revenues were $1.69 billion for the quarter, up 10 percent from $1.53 billion a year ago, and income before income taxes was $198.0 million, up seven percent from the $185.1 million a year ago. Cameron Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jack B. Moore said that the year-over-year revenue increase was due to gains in the Drilling & Production Systems (DPS) and Valves & Measurement (V&M) segments. He noted that EBITDA margins were up for the Company sequentially. Both the DPS and V&M segments drove these margin improvements.

Total orders were $2.0 billion for the quarter, up from $1.48 billion in the third quarter of 2010, for an increase of 35%.  "We are pleased at the pace of orders for the quarter, particularly with the strength of our shorter cycle businesses", Moore commented, "In fact, this represents our third highest orders quarter in Cameron's history".  Surface systems, Distributed Valves, Process Valves and Measurement had record quarterly orders. Subsea saw a 15% increase sequentially.

Cameron's backlog at the end of the third quarter was $5.79 billion, its second highest quarter-end level in history and up from $4.94 billion a year ago.  Moore noted that all three segments increased backlog over the past year with V&M gaining more than 47 percent from year-ago levels.

Capital investment continues, balance sheet strong

Cameron's operations generated cash of $104.9 million during the third quarter. Moore said cash flow from operations should continue to accelerate in the fourth quarter as Cameron's working capital needs moderate. Moore also noted that Cameron spent approximately $228 million in capital expenditures in the first three quarters. "Depending on the pace of expenditures on several large expansion projects, capital spending should approximate $350 million for 2011," Moore said. "We continue to focus on investments in our aftermarket and unconventional resource related businesses, as well as our Brazilian capacity expansion," Moore added. He also noted that the Company called its 2.5% convertible debentures during the second quarter and the cash repurchase was completed during the third quarter. He said that this resulted in a 5.2 million share reduction from the first quarter of 2011.

Moore said that as of September 30, 2011, Cameron's $1.54 billion of cash and cash equivalents was exceeded by its total debt by approximately $50 million.

Full-year earnings guidance

Moore said Cameron's full-year 2011 earnings, excluding charges, will be in the range of $2.63 to $2.66 per share.

Cameron (NYSE: CAM) is a leading provider of flow equipment products, systems and services to worldwide oil, gas and process industries.

In addition to the historical data contained herein, this document includes forward-looking statements regarding future cash flows, costs, margins, free cash flow and earnings of the Company (including fourth quarter and full-year 2011 earnings per share estimates), as well as expectations regarding cash and capital needs, acquisitions and stock repurchases, made in reliance upon the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  The Company's actual results may differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements.  Such statements are based on current expectations of the Company's performance and are subject to a variety of factors, some of which are not under the control of the Company, which can affect the Company's results of operations, liquidity or financial condition.  Such factors may include overall demand for, and pricing of, the Company's products; the size and timing of orders; the Company's ability to successfully execute the large subsea and drilling systems projects it has been awarded; the possibility of cancellations of orders; the Company's ability to convert backlog into revenues on a timely and profitable basis; the impact of acquisitions the Company has made or may make; changes in the price of (and demand for) oil and gas in both domestic and international markets; raw material costs and availability; political and social issues affecting the countries in which the Company does business; fluctuations in currency markets worldwide; and variations in global economic activity.  In particular, current and projected oil and gas prices historically have generally directly affected customers' spending levels and their related purchases of the Company's products and services.  Additionally, changes in oil and gas price expectations may impact the Company's financial results due to changes it may make in its cost structure, staffing or spending levels.
