Lehman Bros. Ups Global Marine To Buy From
Outperform

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Lehman Brothers Inc. analyst Paul Chambers
upgraded his rating on Global Marine Inc. (GLM) to buy from outperform.

The analyst raised his 1998 earnings estimate to $2.05 a share from $2, and
set a 1999 earnings estimate of $2.55 a share.

The offshore driller Thursday reported fourth-quarter earnings of 49 cents
per diluted share, up from 24 cents a year earlier, and two cents above
analysts' estimates.

Chambers said the company's post-earnings conference call was very
positive and its recent contract awards increased his confidence in its growth
prospects.

Chambers said that at current levels, Global's stock is trading at just 10
times projected 1998 earnings, making it cheaper than either the broader
market or its peers. He set a 12-month price target on the stock of 32,
which assumes it will trade at 15 times earnings.
