              FOR THE SECOND QUARTER AND FIRST HALF 1994
              ------------------------------------------

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:  MONDAY, JULY 25, 1994.
- ---------------------------------------------
     WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., July 25 - Texaco Inc. announced today that 
consolidated worldwide net income from continuing operations (including 
special gains and charges) for the second quarter of 1994 was $115 million, 
or $.35 per share, as compared with $312 million, or $1.11 per share, for the 
second quarter of 1993.  Net income from continuing operations (including 
special gains and charges) for the first half of 1994 was $317 million, or 
$1.04 per share, as compared with $593 million, or $2.09 per share, for the 
first half of 1993.

Second Quarter First Half -------------- ---------- Texaco Inc. (Millions): 1994 1993 1994 1993 ______________________________________________________________________________ Net income from continuing operations before special items $ 155 $ 312 $ 357 $ 593 Special charges (119) - (119) - Tax benefit on asset sale 79 - 79 - ----- ----- ------ ------ Total net income from continuing operations 115 312 317 593 Discontinued chemical operations: Loss from operations - (3) - (6) Loss on disposal of business (87) - (87) - ----- ----- ------ ------ Total net income $ 28 $ 309 $ 230 $ 587 ______________________________________________________________________________
Net income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 1994 included special charges of $119 million related to the company's program to consolidate some operations and sell marginal activities. The charges included $88 million for anticipated costs associated with the expected reduction of approximately 2,500 employees over the next 12 months, as well as charges to adjust to fair market values certain properties which are being offered for sale. Net income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 1994 included $79 million of tax benefits realizable through the sale of an interest in a subsidiary. Of these benefits, $38 million was realizable due to the taxable gain on the sale of discontinued chemical operations. - more - - 2 - Net income for the second quarter of 1994 included a charge of $87 million for discontinued operations relating to the completion of the first phase of a transaction to sell substantially all of Texaco's worldwide chemical business. The previously mentioned $38 million tax benefit, coupled with the $87 million charge for discontinued operations, impacted 1994 earnings by a net charge of $49 million. At the sale closing, the company received $650 million in cash and an 11-year subordinated note with a face value of $200 million. In commenting on 1994s second quarter and six months performance Alfred C. DeCrane, Jr., Texaco's Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer stated, "The second quarter 1994 performance reflected upstream benefits from the steady strengthening of crude oil prices through the period. However, market conditions precluded recovery of these added costs to the refining and marketing units. Solid benefits were realized from operating efficiencies and overhead reductions, but not to sufficient levels to offset this squeeze on downstream margins. While crude oil prices rose in the period, they still averaged $3.34 per barrel below the 1993 first half level and $2.25 per barrel below second quarter 1993. "The weakened U.S. dollar adversely affected reported earnings, including a comparative $31 million non-cash charge for currency exchange losses due to the effect of the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the Pound Sterling on U.K. deferred income taxes. "The special charges taken in the period result from major shifts in operational and organizational functions which are the foundation of the company's recently announced action plan for growth and enhanced levels of competitiveness and profitability."
OPERATING EARNINGS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS PETROLEUM AND NATURAL GAS UNITED STATES Second Quarter First Half Exploration & Production (Millions): 1994 1993 1994 1993 ______________________________________________________________________________ Operating earnings from continuing operations before special items $ 121 $ 163 $ 196 $ 296 Special charges (24) - (24) - ----- ----- ----- ----- Total operating earnings $ 97 $ 163 $ 172 $ 296 ______________________________________________________________________________
- more - - 3 - Comparative earnings in the second quarter of 1994 were adversely impacted by lower crude oil prices. Although prices have strengthened since the first quarter of 1994, average prices in the second quarter of 1994 were more than $2 per barrel below prices for the second quarter of 1993. In addition, natural gas prices declined $.24 per MCF for the comparative quarters. These lower prices were partly offset by benefits from continuing reductions in operating expenses. For the first half of 1994, earnings were negatively impacted by the more than $3 per barrel lower average crude oil prices. Partially offsetting the lower crude prices were continued reductions in operating expenses and slightly higher natural gas prices. The company's results in 1994 benefited from its exploration and development program that has successfully added production. Special charges for 1994 provide for the estimated cost of employee separations.
Second Quarter First Half -------------- ---------- Manufacturing & Marketing (Millions): 1994 1993 1994 1993 _____________________________________________________________________________ Operating earnings from continuing operations before special items $ 39 $ 60 $ 117 $ 109 Special charges (24) - (24) - ----- ----- ----- ----- Total operating earnings $ 15 $ 60 $ 93 $ 109 _____________________________________________________________________________
Second quarter 1994 margins decreased as a result of rising refinery feedstock prices that could not be recovered in the marketplace. This quarterly decrease in margins more than offset the benefits of higher gasoline sales following the March 1994 successful introduction of Texaco's CleanSystem3 gasolines, as well as the benefits from improved performance at refineries. Results for the first half of 1994 were somewhat improved due to higher first quarter margins, mainly on the East and Gulf Coasts, combined with increased sales of branded gasolines. Special charges for 1994 relate to the adjustment to fair market value of certain facilities to be offered for sale and the estimated cost of employee separations. - more - - 4 -
INTERNATIONAL Second Quarter First Half -------------- ---------- Exploration & Production (Millions): 1994 1993 1994 1993 ______________________________________________________________________________ Operating earnings from continuing operations before special items $ 34 $ 82 $ 79 $ 161 Special charges (16) - (16) - ----- ----- ----- ----- Total operating earnings $ 18 $ 82 $ 63 $ 161 ______________________________________________________________________________
The decline in comparative second quarter and first half results were due to substantially lower crude oil prices as well as higher exploratory expenses. Partly offsetting these factors were increases in crude oil and natural gas liquids production, mainly in the U.K. sector of the North Sea, in Indonesia, and in the Partitioned Neutral Zone between Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. Natural gas production also increased as compared to the prior year, due to new North Sea U.K. production. The 1994 second quarter and first half included a charge of $11 million compared with benefits of $6 million for the second quarter and first half of 1993 relating to the currency exchange impacts of the Pound Sterling on deferred income taxes. Special charges for 1994 related to the adjustment to fair market value of certain properties being offered for sale and the estimated cost of employee separations.
Second Quarter First Half -------------- ---------- Manufacturing & Marketing (Millions): 1994 1993 1994 1993 ______________________________________________________________________________ Operating earnings from continuing operations before special items $ 67 $ 119 $ 192 $ 241 Special charges (38) - (38) - ----- ----- ----- ----- Total operating earnings $ 29 $ 119 $ 154 $ 241 ______________________________________________________________________________
Results for 1994 versus 1993 reflected the decline in marketing margins that occurred during the second quarter, mainly in Europe. Second quarter results in the Caltex operating areas were unfavorably impacted by currency exchange effects and refining margins. Partly offsetting these decreases were higher marketing margins, mainly in Brazil, and increased sales volumes in Latin America, for the second quarter and first half of 1994. Earnings for the first half of 1994 benefited from the higher refining margins in Europe, which occurred in the first quarter of the year. The 1994 second quarter and first half included a charge of $12 million compared with benefits of $2 million for the second quarter and first half of 1993 relating to the currency exchange impacts of the Pound Sterling on deferred income taxes. Special charges for 1994 related to the estimated cost of employee separations and the adjustment to fair market value of certain properties being offered for sale. - more - - 5 -
CORPORATE/NONOPERATING RESULTS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS Second Quarter First Half -------------- ---------- (Millions): 1994 1993 1994 1993 ______________________________________________________________________________ Results from continuing operations before special items $(100) $(110) $(220) $(209) Special charges (17) - (17) - Tax benefit on asset sale 79 - 79 - ----- ----- ----- ----- Total corporate/nonoperating $ (38) $(110) $(158) $(209) ______________________________________________________________________________
Corporate/nonoperating expenses for both the second quarter and first half reflected the impact of lower corporate overhead offset by higher after tax interest expense. The second quarter 1994 results included a $7 million gain from the receipt of a cash option payment relative to the sale of a manufacturing facility currently under construction in Texas. The second quarter and first half of 1994 included $17 million of charges related to the estimated cost of employee separations. The 1994 results also included $79 million of tax benefits realizable through the sale of an interest in a subsidiary. Of these benefits, $38 million was realizable due to the taxable gain on the sale of discontinued chemical operations. CAPITAL AND EXPLORATORY EXPENDITURES Capital and exploratory expenditures for continuing operations, including equity in such expenditures of affiliates, were $1,231 million for the first half of 1994, as compared to $1,155 million for the same period in 1993. Expenditures for the second quarter of 1994 amounted to $607 million versus $621 million for the same quarter in 1993. Upstream expenditures in the United States reflected higher drilling activities in 1994 with particular emphasis on developmental gas projects mainly during the first quarter of this year. Internationally, higher exploration and development activities in Australia, China and Indonesia were more than offset by lower expenditures in the U.K. North Sea, where successful project completions have increased production of liquids and natural gas as compared to 1993. - more - - 6 - Downstream expenditures in 1994 increased as compared to 1993 mainly due to investments in refinery construction and upgrade projects by Texaco's affiliate, Caltex, in Thailand and Singapore and higher retail marketing expenditures in Australia and Singapore. Additionally, Texaco is continuing its refinery upgrade project in Panama which is scheduled for completion in 1995, and has increased marketing expenditures in the United Kingdom and selected Latin American countries. In the United States, expenditures declined due to the completion of refinery upgrade projects underway in 1993 by both Texaco and Texaco's affiliate, Star Enterprise. - xxx - NOTE TO EDITORS: Tables for the second quarter and first half are attached.
