ION Reports Second Quarter Results
Revenues up 15% to $120.9 million
EPS at break-even, excluding legal accrual
HOUSTON – August 7, 2013 – ION Geophysical Corporation (NYSE: IO) today reported second quarter 2013 revenues of $120.9 million, a 15% increase from revenues of $105.2 million in second quarter 2012. During the quarter, the Company increased its legal accrual related to the WesternGeco legal matter, resulting in a negative non-cash impact to its reported results. Including the legal accrual, ION reported a net loss of $(71.1) million, or $(0.45) per diluted share, in the second quarter. Excluding the legal accrual, net income was $0.4 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared to net income of $12.0 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in second quarter 2012. Second quarter operating results were impacted by approximately $6 million of cost overruns on a GeoVentures® project, a loss from the INOVA Geophysical joint venture of $(4.7) million, and a loss from the GeoRXT joint venture of $(1.6) million, collectively resulting in $(0.07) impact to the Company’s diluted earnings per share. Adjusted EBITDA was $31.8 million compared to $33.9 million in the second quarter 2012.
Brian Hanson, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Overall, the first half of the year was challenging. While our first half revenues were up 16%, our operating margins were down due to cost overruns as we completed acquisition on our first 3D marine program. The pipeline of new venture programs looks solid but is heavily weighted toward the back half of the year. Once again, we are acquiring data in the Arctic, and our land ResSCAN™ programs are gearing up this coming quarter. As a result, we have only spent about 25% of our planned 2013 Cap Ex budget in the first half of the year. Our data processing business again generated record revenues, driven by strong demand in Europe, the Middle East and the Gulf of Mexico, and continued demand for our broadband processing solution, WiBand™. Our systems and software businesses are being pressured by consolidation in the towed steamer market and a reduction in seabed contractors, with RXT’s recent filing for bankruptcy. We expect to see modest improvements in these areas of our business over the back half of the year.
“While we've not increased our ownership interest in GeoRXT, we remain highly committed to entering the seabed seismic market through a service model. The seabed market continues to expand, and our leading Calypso™ seabed technology will help us capitalize on this growth. In the last quarter alone, we saw approximately $350 million of contracts being awarded to seabed contractors. We also recently announced a strategic alliance with Polarcus to jointly develop, execute and market 3D multi-client programs globally. This alliance will leverage the complementary strengths of our two companies, Polarcus' world-class seismic fleet to acquire data, and petroleum system insights into key basins derived from our 2D BasinSPAN™ data library, to locate and design surveys that address specific geological challenges. We believe together we will provide E&P companies a differentiated 3D seismic offering as they look to move from gaining an early exploration understanding of basins, in front of licensing rounds, to later-stage exploration.
“Regarding the increase in our legal accrual, as we previously disclosed in our June 8-K filing, the trial court entered an order rejecting the jury’s findings of willfulness and denying WesternGeco’s motion for willfulness and enhanced damages, but also denying our challenges to the jury's infringement findings and the jury's damages amount. When preparing our financials for the second quarter, we analyzed the order and all other developments in the case at the
1
trial court level and concluded it was appropriate to increase our accrual and record a non-cash charge to cover the jury's damages amount, court costs, and estimates of potential supplemental damages and interest. After a final judgment in the case is entered by the trial court, we’ll appeal the case to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, D.C. It will take some time to pursue the appeal, but we still believe that we will ultimately prevail in the case.”
SECOND QUARTER 2013
Total revenues increased 15% to $120.9 million, compared to $105.2 million in the second quarter 2012. Solutions and Systems segment revenues increased 23% and 5%, respectively, whereas Software segment revenues declined by 19%.
Solutions segment revenues increased to $88.6 million, compared to $72.0 million in second quarter 2012, driven by a 25% growth in multi-client revenues and a 20% growth in data processing revenues. Data library sales declined 3%, impacted by delays in licensing rounds offshore Tanzania and Greenland, and a smaller than expected licensing round in the pre-salt region of Brazil.
Systems segment sales increased to $23.8 million compared to $22.8 million in second quarter 2012. Software segment sales declined to $8.4 million from $10.4 million, primarily related to a decline in Orca® and Gator® revenues.
Consolidated gross margins were 30%, compared to 44% in second quarter 2012. The gross margin decrease was driven primarily by cost overruns associated with the recently completed multi-quarter 3D marine program as mentioned above, combined with the decline in Software segment revenues and a decline in Systems segment gross margins due to changes in the mix of products sold during the quarter. Second quarter operating margins were 6%, compared to 12% in second quarter 2012.
The Company’s equity investments include its 49% interest in INOVA Geophysical and its 30% interest in GeoRXT. The Company accounts for its 49% interest in INOVA on a one fiscal quarter-lag basis. As a result, the Company’s share of INOVA’s first quarter 2013 financial results is included in the Company’s second quarter results. See the attached financial tables for the summarized first quarter financial results of INOVA. During the second quarter, the Company recognized losses on its INOVA equity investment of $(4.7) million, compared to earnings of $3.8 million for the prior year period, resulting primarily from a 61% decline in revenues. This decline was attributable to a reduction in vibrator truck sales and reduced revenues from rental equipment. Additionally, during the second quarter 2013, the Company recorded losses on its GeoRXT equity investment of $(1.6) million.
In May 2013, the Company issued $175 million of 8.125% senior secured second priority notes due in 2018 in a private offering. A portion of the proceeds from the offering was used to pay down $97.3 million of outstanding indebtedness under the Company’s total available credit facility of $175.0 million. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had full availability under its $175.0 million credit facility. As a result of the issuance of the senior notes, the Company’s interest expense increased to $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2013, compared to $1.4 million for the prior year period. The Company’s total cash and cash equivalents were $109.5 million as of June 30, 2013.

YEAR-TO-DATE 2013
Total revenues increased 16% to $250.7 million compared to $216.9 million for the same period in 2012. Solutions segment revenues increased 29% to $177.8 million, primarily as a result of data processing expansion and continued acquisition of the Company’s 3D marine program.
Systems segment revenues decreased by 6%, primarily due to lower marine positioning equipment sales and a decline in land sensor sales. Software segment revenues decreased by 11% due to a decline in Orca and Gator revenues.
Consolidated gross margins decreased to 29% compared to 40% in the first half of 2012 due to the 3D program cost overruns, the revenue decline in the Software segment and the mix of product sales in the Systems segment.
Consolidated operating margins decreased to 3% from 11% in the same period of 2012. The operating margin deterioration was caused primarily by the gross margin deterioration as explained above, in addition to bad debt expenses of $2.9 million reflected in first quarter 2013.
The Company recognized losses on its INOVA equity investment of $(2.9) million compared to earnings of $6.2 million for the prior year period, attributable primarily to a 29% sales decline year-over-year. Additionally, the Company recorded losses on its GeoRXT equity investment of $(2.3) million.
Including the legal accrual, the Company reported a net loss of $(69.6) million, or $(0.44) per diluted share. Excluding the legal accrual, the Company reported net income of $1.9 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to net income of $20.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the first six months of 2012.
OUTLOOK
Greg Heinlein, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We continued to deliver solid revenue growth in the second quarter but struggled with cost overruns on acquisition of our first 3D marine survey, which we completed in early July. Over the program life, the project was profitable. Our recently announced strategic alliance with Polarcus for 3D multi-client surveys, which will combine our geophysical expertise with Polarcus’ fleet of advanced, high-performance vessels, solidifies our commitment to growing our portfolio of 3D programs over time.
“Looking ahead to the second half of 2013, new venture program investments will be more weighted than recent years toward the back half of the year, with full year spending now expected to be in the range of $120 million to $140 million. This revision from previous guidance of $140 million to $160 million reflects delays in some of our land programs into 2014. Our data processing business remains healthy; however, we may experience a delay in recognizing a portion of revenue in the third quarter related to the renewal of a significant customer contract later this year. Our Systems and Software segment results for the first half of the year were impacted by customer consolidation in the towed streamer market. In the second half of 2013, we expect modest sequential improvements. We estimate that INOVA’s second quarter income from operations, impacting our third quarter results, will be in the range of $2 million to $3 million.
“Finally, we continue to view our seabed technology as an important strategic growth driver for ION and have maintained our interest in the seabed joint venture at 30% to ensure that our go-to-market strategy optimizes our return on investment in Calypso. It’s more likely that our first Calypso array sale will be in 2014.”

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income (Loss)
(Non-GAAP Measure)
(In thousands)
(Unaudited)
The term Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and other similar non-cash charges including, without limitation, equity in (earnings) losses of investments and accrual for loss contingency related to legal proceedings. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income (loss) or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The Company has included Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because its management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information regarding our ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures and provides investors a helpful measure for comparing its operating performance with the performance of other companies that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates.

Reconciliation of Special Item to Diluted Earnings per Share
(Non-GAAP Measure)
(In thousands, except per share data)
(Unaudited)
The financial results are reported in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes that certain non-GAAP performance measures may provide users of this financial information additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. One such non-GAAP financial measure is income from operations or net income (loss) excluding certain charges or amounts. This adjusted income amount is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Accordingly, it should not be considered as a substitute for income from operations, net income (loss) or other income data prepared in accordance with GAAP. See the table below for supplemental financial data and the corresponding reconciliation to GAAP financials for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013:
