Halliburton Posts 4Q Earnings of $1.1B
HOUSTON, Jan. 27, 2006

(AP) Oilfield services conglomerate Halliburton Co. on Thursday said 2005 was the company's best in its 86-year history, a year anchored by a profitable fourth quarter of strong sales and increased rig activity. The income reversed a loss from a year earlier.

Quarterly profit rose to $1.1 billion, or $2.08 a share, including a one-time tax gain of $540 million or $1.02 a share. That compared to a net loss of $203 million, or 46 cents a share last year, which included a $384 million loss from discontinued operations.

The results widely beat Wall Street's projections of 89 cents a share on revenue of $5.24 billion, according to analysts surveyed by Thomson Financial.

Revenue for 2005 reached nearly $21 billion, also beating analysts expectations of $20.4 billion.

Halliburton announced earnings after the market closed. The Houston-based company planned to discuss the results Friday morning in a conference call with analysts.

Shares of Halliburton rose 91 cents to close at $75.15 on the New York Stock Exchange. They added another 1.9 percent, or $1.45, in after-hours trading.
