−Removed: Although in an already depressed oil and gas industry, demand further decreased in February 2020, because of the oversupply of crude oil due to failed OPEC negotiations that led to a dramatic drop in crude oil prices when combined with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
−Removed: These declines in the demand for oil and gas have caused oil and gas exploration and production companies to experience a significant reduction in cash flows, which have resulted in reductions in their capital spending budgets for oil and gas exploration-focused activities, including seismic data acquisition activities.
−Removed: Crude oil prices have stabilized over the past two years;
−Removed: however, a lag in time typically occurs between higher oil prices and greater demand for our Oil and Gas Markets segment products.
−Removed: We believe this lag is the result of exploration and production (“E&P”) companies allocating their cash flow towards shareholder reward initiatives, such as stock buy-back programs and dividend payments, or in debt reduction.
−Removed: We believe this lag is a short-term trend that will continue until E&P companies decide to reinvest capital into exploration activities.
−Removed: As this lag persists, we expect the reduced levels of demand for our Oil and Gas Markets segment products.
−Removed: We also expect our land-based traditional and wireless products will continue to experience low levels of product demand until our customers consume their excess levels of underutilized equipment.
−Removed: As discussed below, we had a $30 million wireless product sale to a customer in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024.
−Removed: However, we do not currently anticipate another product sale this large for the remainder of fiscal year 2024.
−Removed: In light of current market conditions, the inventory balances in our Oil and Gas Markets business segment at June 30, 2024 continued to exceed levels we consider appropriate for the current level of product demand.
−Removed: We are continuing to work aggressively to reduce these legacy inventory balances;
−Removed: however, we are also adding new inventories for new wireless product developments and for other product demand in our Adjacent Markets segment.
−Removed: During periods of excessive inventory levels, our policy has been, and will continue to be, to record obsolescence expense as we experience reduced product demand and as our inventories continue to age.
−Removed: Although the Oil and Gas Markets segment is seeing a recovery after experiencing difficult market conditions, we have been recording additional expenses for inventory obsolescence and will continue to do so in the future until product demand and/or resulting inventory turnover return to acceptable levels.
−Removed: Armed Conflict Between Russia and Ukraine
−Removed: A portion of our oil and gas product manufacturing is conducted by Geospace Technologies Eurasia LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary based in the Russian Federation.
−Removed: Consequently, our oil and gas business could be directly affected by the current war between Russia and Ukraine.
−Removed: See Note 14 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information.
−Removed: Coronavirus (COVID-19)
−Removed: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted worldwide economic activity and continues to create challenges in our markets.
−Removed: The COVID-19 pandemic and the related mitigation measures have disrupted our supply chain, resulting in longer lead times in materials available from suppliers and extended shipping time for these materials to reach our facilities.
−Removed: The occurrence or resurgence of global or regional health events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and the related government responses, could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.
−Removed: As such, we will continue to closely monitor COVID-19 and will continue to reassess our strategy and operational structure on a regular, ongoing basis.

−Removed: Consolidated revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2024, was $100.2 million, an increase of $5.0 million, or 5.2%, from the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.
−Removed: The increase was largely due to a $30.0 million sale of our Mariner™ shallow water ocean bottom nodes in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, which replaced a rental contract with the customer.
−Removed: We do not expect another product sale this large for the remainder of fiscal year 2024.
−Removed: The increase was largely offset by a decrease in rental revenue due to lower utilization of our OBX rental fleet.
−Removed: Consolidated gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024,was $8.5 million, a decrease of $5.5 million, or 39.0%, from the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

−Removed: Consolidated gross profit for the nine months ended June 30, 2024,was $36.6 million, a decrease of $0.8 million, or 2.2%, from the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.
−Removed: The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to (i) the decrease in utilization of our OBX rental fleet and (ii) a higher warranty accrual, primarily related to the Mariner™ sale.
−Removed: The decrease was largely offset offset by gross profit on our Mariner™ sale in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024.
−Removed: Consolidated operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024,were $10.9 million, an increase of $0.1 million, or 0.8%, from the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.
−Removed: The increase was primarily due to higher sales and marketing costs, primarily personnel costs.
−Removed: Consolidated operating expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2024,were $30.7 million, a decrease of $0.8 million, or 2.6%, from the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.
−Removed: The decrease was primarily due to lower personnel costs attributable to our workforce reduction in first quarter of fiscal year 2023, which included $0.4 million in employee termination costs.
−Removed: In February 2023, we sold our property located at 7310 Langfield in Houston, Texas for a cash sales price of $3.7 million, net of closing costs of $0.3 million.
−Removed: We recognized a gain of $1.3 million from the sale in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023.
−Removed: Consolidated other income for each of the three months ended June 30, 2024, and June 30, 2023, was $0.3 million.
−Removed: Consolidated other income for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.5 million, compared to $0.8 million from the corresponding period of the prior year.
−Removed: The decrease for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 was principally due to net foreign currency transaction losses, partially offset by an increase in interest income attributable to short-term investments.

+Added: We expect this portion of our business to continue to grow for the foreseeable future.
+Added: Additionally, we anticipate this segment to see revenue contributions from our Aquana smart water valve and IoT technology products as market traction and increased sales backlog continues to gather.
+Added: Given the well-known and often extreme volatility experienced in our Energy Solutions segment, careful expansion of products and market diversity in our Smart Water and Intelligent Industrial segments has been a longstanding part of our strategic vision and reflects our on-going diversification efforts.
+Added: Our Energy Solution segment saw a shift from rentals of our OBX marine wireless nodes to purchases of the equipment in fiscal year 2024, of which trend has continued into fiscal year 2025.
+Added: This shift signifies our customer’s recognition of future backlog to justify ownership versus renting the nodes.
+Added: We do not expect significant expansion of the ocean bottom nodal market, for we expect the market is saturable and future rental fleet use will come from our customer’s need to temporarily expand their nodal fleet.
+Added: We expect our Energy Solutions segment to provide the majority of our revenue for years to come, but in diminishing portion to our other segments.
+Added: Demand for our seismic products has been, and will likely continue to be, vulnerable to downturns in the economy and the oil and gas industry in general.
+Added: We continue to maintain a strong balance sheet with no debt.
+Added: Our current liquidity enables our ability to seek out business acquisitions, allows us to continue investments in capital assets and product research and development, which have historically driven revenue growth.
