Boots & Coots Says Net Income Up
"Prevention service segment revenues from SafeGuard contracts in Algeria, Kazakhstan and India were up during the quarter. In Venezuela however, we experienced delays due to certain management changes at the customer level," said Jerry Winchester, President and Chief Executive Officer. "While we expect these delays to be temporary, our SafeGuard business will be affected in the fourth quarter, so we are revising our estimate for prevention revenues from $15.0 million to $13.5 million for 2005. We have an excellent relationship with, and perform critical services for our contractor in Venezuela, and we expect to be fully operational again under that contract in the first quarter of 2006."
"Results continue to strengthen," continued Winchester. "Revenues from the rest of our SafeGuard business are at or above plan and steadily continue to increase quarter over quarter. This supports the fact that our strategy to focus on the prevention business is the right strategy. The impact that our programs make for our customers will continue to create opportunities for us and move us toward our goal to become the premier pressure control services company in the industry."
