Forward Guidance

Oceaneering anticipates its full year 2021 to yield positive free cash flow in excess of the amount generated in 2020, and the midpoint of the consolidated adjusted EBITDA range to approximate 2020 consolidated adjusted EBITDA.

Positive Outlook

  • Higher revenue in ADTech and IMDS to offset substantially lower revenue from our Manufactured Products segment.
  • Forecast relatively flat revenue in our SSR and OPG segments.
  • Generating $160 million to $210 million of adjusted EBITDA, with positive operating income and adjusted EBITDA contributions from each of our operating segments.
  • Improved annual operating results in our SSR, OPG, IMDS, and ADTech segments.
  • Expect to generate positive free cash flow in excess of the amount generated in 2020.

Challenges Ahead

  • Substantially lower revenue from our Manufactured Products segment.
  • Lower operating results in our Manufactured Products segment.
  • Expect Manufactured Products segment performance to decline, primarily as a result of the decreased order intake in our energy businesses during 2020.
  • Anticipate Unallocated Expenses to average in the low- to mid-$30 million range per quarter.
  • Interest expense, net of interest income, is expected to be approximately $40 million.
