FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

GEOSPACE TECHNOLOGIES REPORTS FISCAL YEAR 2014 RESULTS

Houston, Texas – November 20, 2014 – Geospace Technologies (NASDAQ: GEOS) today announced net income of $36.9 million, or $2.81 per diluted share, on revenues of $236.9 million for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2014. This compares with a net income of $69.6 million, or $5.38 per diluted share, on revenues of $300.6 million for the prior year.

For the fourth quarter ended September 30, 2014, the company recorded revenues of $26.3 million and a net loss of $1.8 million, or $0.14 per diluted share. For the comparable period last year, the company recorded revenues of $68.3 million and net income of $13.7 million, or $1.05 per diluted share.

Walter R. (“Rick”) Wheeler, Geospace Technologies’ President and CEO said, “Fiscal year 2014 has seen significant extremes in our quarterly financial results. In our first fiscal quarter, revenues and net income reached the highest levels in our company’s history, while in our fourth quarter these numbers approached record lows. This is hard evidence of the lumpiness that, as we continually point out, our business experiences. But through it all, we are pleased to have increased shareholder equity by 13.9% at the end of fiscal year 2014. In our fourth quarter, revenues and net income were down by $42.0 million or 62%, and $15.5 million or 113%, respectively, from last year’s fourth quarter. The reduction in revenue was a direct consequence of the completion of the Statoil order back in April, whereby we recognized $38.1 million of revenues in last year’s fourth quarter. In addition, the current year fourth quarter reflected lower product demand across all of our seismic and non-seismic product segments compared to last year’s fourth quarter.”

“Fourth quarter revenues for our traditional and wireless seismic products were down by $2.3 million or 21%, and $0.5 million or 5%, respectively from last year. Demand for product sales has fallen in direct association with reduced capital spending by our customers due to diminished seismic exploration activities across most sectors of the industry. To the extent that oil and gas companies continue to reduce exploration spending to find new energy, we expect the demand for these products to remain soft. We anticipate that during this time, we will continue to see our overall traditional and wireless product revenues decrease, and we anticipate some shifting of revenues from sales to rentals. Despite market softness, we believe our wireless products represent the best and most cost efficient alternatives for seismic industry contractors in lieu of legacy cabled equipment, which enhances our position in future sales and rental opportunities. We sold 86,000 channels of our GSX land wireless products during fiscal year 2014 and we had 134,000 channels in our worldwide rental fleet.”

“Despite the softness experienced by the seismic industry, the ocean-bottom seismic market remains active. We are seeing growing customer interest, quote inquiries, and rental contracts for use of our cableless OBX ocean bottom systems. We recently announced an agreement with a major international seismic contractor to rent 4,000 stations of our cableless OBX ocean bottom nodal system for 180 days. We expect to deliver this OBX system to the customer in our second quarter of fiscal year 2015. In a related matter that we have previously reported on, Seafloor Geophysical Solutions continues to move forward in their effort to secure capital funding, although slowly. We understand that SGS received a small amount of working capital funding from a potential investor which has extended the timing of their efforts to secure the long-term financing needed to proceed with their business plans, which currently includes the purchase of our deep-water OBX system. We cautiously interpret this as a positive indicator in their pursuit toward a successful outcome and we understand that this funding helps SGS operate through the end of calendar year 2014, although we must point out that we have no specific knowledge about when or if a successful completion might occur.”

“Fourth quarter revenues from our reservoir products declined by $38.7 million or 91% from last year. As mentioned above, almost the entire decrease in revenues for the fourth quarter resulted from the completion of the manufacturing portion of Statoil’s permanent reservoir monitoring (PRM) system back in April 2014. We are very satisfied and proud of the work which our employees achieved during this contract, finishing the project in record time and with quality workmanship. We are confident that Statoil is pleased with system’s data quality and the work we performed, and we expect a positive on-going relationship between our companies. While we currently have no PRM contracts in hand at this time, we remain optimistic that our PRM products will contribute significantly to our results of operations in the future. We are aware of a number of operators around the world who are considering PRM systems for their fields and we believe we are the world leader in the design and construction of such systems.”

“Sales of our non-seismic products decreased $0.5 million or 8% from last year’s fourth quarter primarily resulting from a decline in offshore cable shipments. During the Statoil contract, we were unable to accept certain orders for offshore cable products due to a lack of ample manufacturing capacity. We are aggressively pursuing new orders and new customers for our offshore cable products.”

“The architectural plans for the construction of a new building at our Pinemont facilities are now in the hands of local officials for approval and permitting. It is estimated that the conclusion of this process should occur sometime before mid-December. This further pushes back any significant effort towards the construction of the new facilities to the second quarter of fiscal year 2015, at the earliest. However, our remodeling of a smaller building on the property was fully completed on schedule, and we successfully moved all operations from a previously rented satellite facility into this building. Present circumstances indicate that much of the seismic exploration industry is in the midst of curtailed activities that are typical of the cyclical lows the industry has seen before. However, we maintain that future opportunities for us to provide permanent reservoir monitoring systems and other innovative products to the industry are primary drivers in a long-term strategy that calls for us to enhance and expand our facilities and capacity.”

While we are clearly in a period of pressure on our operations, our balance sheet is very strong and we believe we are in a good position to work through the correction in oil and gas exploration and production activities.
