Geospace reports Q3 EPS 24c vs. (51c) last year

Reports Q3 revenue $32.7M vs. $20.7M last year. Rick Wheeler, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Geospace Technologies said, “We’re very excited to see our third quarter performance further extend profitability for fiscal year 2023 by $0.24 per share. Moreover, total revenue for the quarter of $32.7 million represents the highest quarterly figure recorded in nine years. These results offer evidence of the intended positive impact our longstanding diversification efforts and recent cost control measures were designed to achieve. A combination of increased demand for our Oil and Gas segment products and continued growth in our Adjacent Markets segment fueled both third quarter and nine-month results. In the Oil and Gas segment, our rental fleet of OBX ocean bottom nodes is near full utilization, reliably collecting high-resolution seismic data for clients around the globe. This growing demand and our innovation in this product domain were the impetus leading to our recently announced $20 million contract with a major contractor for the rental of our new shallow water Mariner(R) nodal system. Under current market conditions, we believe demand for our Oil and Gas segment products will remain strong into fiscal year 2024.”
