PHI, Inc. (The Nasdaq Select Global Market: PHII (voting) PHIIK (non-voting)) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2018.
Consolidated operating revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 were $168.8 million, compared to $150.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $18.6 million. Oil and Gas segment operating revenues increased $17.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. This increase is attributable principally to revenue derived from our recently-acquired HNZ offshore business and from an increase in revenues in our legacy international operations. Air Medical segment operating revenues remained unchanged at $70.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017. Technical Services segment operating revenues increased $1.1 million. Consolidated net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 was $11.5 million compared to net loss of $3.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.
Oil and Gas segment loss was $5.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, compared to a loss of $6.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. The $1.1 million decrease in segment loss is primarily attributable to profit from our HNZ offshore business and PHI legacy international operations, as well as cost reductions in our legacy Gulf of Mexico operations.
Air Medical segment profit was $6.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, compared to a segment profit of $16.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. The $9.8 million decrease in profit is primarily attributable to increased employee compensation costs and decreased transports at our existing bases. The decline in transports for existing bases is primarily due to weather-related issues.
Technical Services segment profit was less than $0.1 million for both the quarters ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017.
Unallocated selling, general and administrative costs were $7.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 compared to $6.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. The $1.1 million increase was principally attributable to increase in legal and consulting fees.
For additional information, please see (i) the attachments hereto and (ii) Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 that we filed today with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
