INPUT/OUTPUT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) Basis of Presentation
The consolidated balance sheet of Input/Output, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively
referred to as the Company or I/O, unless the context otherwise requires) at December 31, 2006
has been derived from the Companys audited consolidated financial statements at that date. The
consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2007, the consolidated statements of operations for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the consolidated statements of cash flows
for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full
year or of future operations.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the instructions to
Form 10-Q and applicable rules of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been omitted.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
During the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company determined that a portion of service revenues
had been previously reported as product revenues during the first three quarters of 2006. The
Company has reclassified these into service revenues, with no impact on total revenues for any
reported period.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates
Refer to the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, for a
complete discussion of the Companys significant accounting policies and estimates, except for the
addition of the following significant accounting policy.
Income Taxes Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. In June 2006, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), which clarifies the
accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (FAS 109). FIN 48 clarifies the application of FAS
109 by defining criteria that an individual tax position must satisfy in order for any part of the
benefit of that position to be recognized in the financial statements. Additionally, FIN 48
provides guidance on the measurement, derecognition, classification and disclosure of tax
positions, along with accounting for the related interest and penalties. The provisions of FIN 48
were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, with the cumulative effect of
the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings. The
Company adopted FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The adoption resulted in no adjustment to beginning
retained earnings. See Note 7 for additional information.
(3) Segment and Product Information
The Company measures segment operating results based on income from operations. The Company
evaluates and reviews results based on four segments Land Imaging Systems, Marine Imaging Systems,
Data Management Solutions (which collectively form the I/O Systems Division) and the I/O Solutions
Division (formerly referred to as Seismic Imaging Solutions) to allow for increased visibility
and accountability of costs and more focused customer service and product development. Intersegment
sales are insignificant for all periods presented.

Over the last several years, the Company has increased its use of contract manufacturers as an
alternative to in-house manufacturing. Under some of the Companys outsourcing arrangements, its
manufacturing outsourcers directly purchase inventory at agreed-upon quantities and lead times in
order to meet the Companys scheduled deliveries. If demand proves to be less than the Company
originally forecasted (thereby causing the Company to cancel its committed purchase orders with its
manufacturing outsourcer), its outsourcer may have the right to require the Company to purchase
inventory which it had purchased on the Companys behalf.
(5) Net Income per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common
shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net
income per common share is determined based on the assumption that dilutive restricted stock and
restricted stock unit awards have vested and outstanding dilutive stock options have been exercised
and the aggregate proceeds were used to reacquire common stock using the average price of such
common stock for the period. The total number of shares issued or committed for issuance under
outstanding stock options at June 30, 2007 and 2006 were 6,044,267 and 6,535,403, respectively, and
the total number of shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units at June 30, 2007 and 2006
were 1,121,252 and 833,150, respectively. The number of shares issued under stock option exercises
during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were 612,631 and 275,354 shares, respectively.
The Company has outstanding $60.0 million of convertible senior notes, for which 13,888,890
common stock may currently be acquired upon their full conversion, and 30,000 outstanding shares of Series D-1 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (Series D-1
Preferred Stock), which may presently be converted, at the holders election, into up to 3,812,428
shares of common stock. As highlighted in the table below, the convertible senior notes and
preferred stock are dilutive for certain of the periods presented and therefore have been included
in the computation of diluted net income per share in those periods.

Revolving Line of Credit. In March 2007, the Company obtained a $75.0 million revolving line
of credit (the Facility) with a scheduled maturity in March 2011. The Facility replaced the Companys
$25.0 million revolving line of credit facility, which was scheduled to mature in May 2008. The
outstanding balance of indebtedness under the Facility was $16.0 million at June 30, 2007. The
Facility is available for revolving credit borrowings to be used for the Companys working capital
needs and general corporate purposes, subject to a borrowing base. In addition, the Facility
includes a $25.0 million sub-limit for the issuance of documentary and standby letters of credit of which $1.0 million had been issued at June 30, 2007. The Facility may also be used to fund the
repayment of the Companys 5.50% convertible senior notes indebtedness that is due on December 15,
2008 (Convertible Notes), so long as after funds are advanced for that purpose, there remains at
least $30.0 million under the borrowing base that is available for borrowings under the Facility.
The Facility includes an accordion feature under which the total commitments under the Facility may
be increased to $100.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.
The Facility borrowing base is calculated based on the sum of (i) 85% of eligible accounts
receivable, eligible foreign accounts receivable and insured foreign accounts receivable, plus (ii)
the lesser of (x) thirty percent (30%) of eligible inventory or (y) $20.0 million. For purposes of
this calculation, eligible foreign accounts receivable cannot exceed $23.5 million. As of June 30,
2007, the borrowing base calculation permitted total borrowings of $75.0 million, of which $58.0
million remained available.
The interest rate on borrowings under the Facility will be, at the Companys option, (i) an
alternate base rate (as defined in the Facility credit agreement) or (ii) for Eurodollar
borrowings, a LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin. The amount of the applicable margin will be
based on the Companys then-current leverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement. The
applicable margin will be
8
increased by 0.50% with respect to any borrowings that are applied to
repay the Convertible Notes. The option (i) interest rate in effect at June 30, 2007 was 8.25%. The
Company had no borrowings under option (ii) as of June 30, 2007.
The Company is obligated to pay a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on the unused portion of
the Facility. A significant portion of the Companys assets are pledged as collateral for
outstanding borrowings under the Facility. The Facility credit agreement restricts the Companys
ability to pay common stock dividends, incur additional debt, sell significant assets, acquire
other businesses, merge with other entities and take certain other actions without the consent of
the lenders. The credit agreement requires compliance with certain financial and non-financial
covenants, including requirements related to (i) maintaining a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio
of 1.25 to 1.0, and (ii) not exceeding a maximum leverage ratio of 2.75 to 1.0 (provided that, upon
the Companys repaying the outstanding indebtedness under the Convertible Notes, the maximum
leverage ratio shall fall to 2.50 to 1.0 for 12 months and then 2.0 to 1.0 thereafter). At June 30,
2007, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants under the credit agreement.
Convertible Senior Notes. In December 2003, the Company issued $60.0 million of convertible
senior notes, which mature on December 15, 2008. The notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5.5%,
payable semi-annually. The notes, which are not redeemable prior to their maturity, are convertible
into the Companys common stock at an initial conversion rate of 231.4815 shares per $1,000
principal amount of notes (a conversion price of $4.32 per share), which represents 13,888,890
total common shares.
Facility Lease Obligation. In 2001, the Company sold its facilities, located in Stafford,
Texas, for $21.0 million. Simultaneously with the sale, the Company entered into a non-cancelable
twelve-year lease with the purchaser of the property. Because the Company retained a continuing
involvement in the property that precluded sale-leaseback treatment for financial accounting
purposes, the sale-leaseback transaction was accounted for as a financing transaction.
In June 2005, the owner sold the facilities to two parties, which were unrelated to each other
as well as unrelated to the seller. In conjunction with the sale of the facilities, the Company
entered into two separate lease arrangements for each of the facilities with the new owners. One
lease, which was classified as an operating lease, has a twelve-year lease term. The second lease, continues to be accounted for as a financing transaction due to the
Companys continuing involvement in the property as a lessee, and has a ten-year lease term which
the Company does not expect to renew. The Company recorded the commitment under the second lease as a $5.5 million lease
obligation at an implicit rate of 11.7% per annum. Both leases have renewal options allowing the
Company to extend the leases for up to an additional twenty-year term.
Equipment Capital Leases. The Company has entered into a series of equipment loans that are
due in installments for the purpose of financing the purchase of computer equipment, in the form of
capital leases expiring in various years through 2010. Interest charged under these loans range
from 5.9% to 9.4% and the leases are collateralized by liens on the computer equipment. During the
six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company entered into various capital leases for
computer equipment totaling $5.7 million and $5.6 million, respectively.
(7) Income Taxes
In 2002, the Company established a valuation allowance for substantially all of its deferred
tax assets. Since that time, the Company has continued to record a valuation allowance. The
valuation allowance was calculated in accordance with the provisions of FAS 109, Accounting for
Income Taxes, which require that a valuation allowance be established or maintained when it is
more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. The
Company will continue to reserve for substantially all net deferred tax assets until there is
sufficient evidence to warrant reversal. The Companys effective tax rate for the three months
ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was 21.9% and 6.1%, respectively, which is primarily related to the
Companys earnings in its foreign jurisdictions. The Companys effective tax rate for the six
months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was 22.8% and 14.0%, respectively.
As a result of implementation of FIN 48, the Company recorded no adjustment to beginning
retained earnings because there are no unrecognized tax benefits. The Company does not expect to
recognize significant increases in unrecognized tax benefits during the next twelve month period.
Interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in income
tax expense.
The Companys U.S. federal tax returns for 2003 and subsequent years remain subject to
examination by tax authorities. The Company is no longer subject to IRS examination for periods
prior to 2003, although carryforward attributes that were generated prior
to 2003 may still be adjusted upon examination by the IRS if they either have been or will be
used in a future period. In the Companys foreign tax jurisdictions, tax returns for 2000 and
subsequent years generally remain open to examination.

(9) Stock-Based Compensation Valuation Assumptions
The Company calculated the fair value of each option award on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following assumptions were used for each respective period:

The computation of expected volatility during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was
based on an equally weighted combination of historical volatility and market-based implied
volatility. Historical volatility was calculated from historical data for a period of time
approximately equal to the expected term of the option award, starting from the date of grant.
Market-based implied volatility was derived from traded options on the Companys common stock
having a term of six months. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon the U.S. Treasury
yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected life of the
option.
(10) Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Matters: In September 2003, a former employee of the Company filed a lawsuit against the
Company in the 127th Judicial District Court, Harris County, Texas, alleging that the
Company terminated the employees employment as the result of age discrimination. The case was
transferred to the 268th District Court for Fort Bend County, Texas, and, in November
2005, the case was removed to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas
(Gaines Watkins v. Input/Output, Inc., Civil Action No. H-05-03940). In June 2007, the case was
tried to a jury, and the jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff and found that the
plaintiff was entitled to a total of $450,000 in back pay and $50,000 in front pay. The jury also
found that the Company acted willfully in discharging the plaintiff. Under the Age Discrimination
in Employment Act of 1967, the plaintiff may be awarded an additional amount of liquidated damages
equal to the plaintiffs lost back wages if the jury determines that the age discrimination was
willful. The judge may also award the plaintiff reasonable attorneys fees and costs. As of the
date of this filing, a judgment has not yet been entered by the presiding judge; however,
management believes that the ultimate resolution of this case will not have a material adverse
impact on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. At June 30, 2007,
the Company recorded an estimated loss of $1.0 million attributable to this case.
The Company has been named in various other lawsuits or threatened actions that are incidental
to its ordinary business. Such lawsuits and actions could increase in number as the Companys
business expands and the Company grows larger. Litigation is inherently unpredictable. Any claims
against the Company, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, cause the Company to
incur costs and expenses, require significant amounts of management time, and result in the
diversion of significant operational resources. The results of these lawsuits and actions cannot be
predicted with certainty. Management currently believes that the ultimate resolution of these
matters will not have a material adverse impact on the financial condition, results of operations
or liquidity of the Company.
Warranties: The Company generally warrants that all of its manufactured equipment will be free
from defects in workmanship, materials and parts. Warranty periods generally range from 30 days to
three years from the date of original purchase, depending on the product. The Company provides for
estimated warranty as a charge to cost of sales at time of sale, which is when estimated future
10
expenditures associated with such contingencies become probable and reasonably estimated. However,
new information may become available, or circumstances (such as applicable laws and regulations)
may change, thereby resulting in an increase or decrease in the
amount required to be accrued for such matters (and therefore a decrease or increase in reported
net income in the period of such
change). A summary of warranty activity is as follows (in thousands):

(11) Concentration of Credit and Foreign Sales Risks
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, $35.5 million, or 10.8%, of consolidated net revenues,
were attributable to land system sales to Oil & Natural Gas Corporation, Ltd. (ONGC), the national
oil company of India. At June 30, 2007, $30.0 million, or 21.2% of our total accounts receivable
related to this customer. The outstanding balance of these receivables is secured by letters of
credit. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, $21.4 million, or 6.5%, and $21.4 million,
or 9.4%, respectively, of consolidated net revenues, were attributable to marine equipment sales to
Reservoir Exploration Technology (RXT). At June 30, 2007, $6.7 million of our total notes
receivable related to this customer. The loss of these customers or deterioration in the Companys
relationship with either of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of
operations and financial condition.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company recognized $69.6 million of sales to
customers in Europe, $56.0 million of sales to customers in the Asia-Pacific region, $21.9 million
of sales to customers in Africa, $19.5 million of sales to customers in the Middle East, $6.2
million of sales to customers in Latin American countries, and $23.0 million of sales to customers
in the Commonwealth of Independent States, or former Soviet Union (CIS). The majority of the
Companys foreign sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and
2006, international sales comprised 59% and 76%, respectively, of total net revenues. Certain of
these countries have experienced economic problems and uncertainties from time to time. To the
extent that world events or economic conditions negatively affect the Companys future sales to
customers in these and other regions of the world or the collectibility of the Companys existing
receivables, the Companys future results of operations, liquidity and financial condition may be
adversely affected.
(12) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The
provisions of FAS 157 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company
is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of this statement.
In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities (FAS 159). FAS 159 allows companies the option to report certain financial
assets and liabilities at fair value, establishes presentation and disclosure requirements and
requires additional disclosure surrounding the valuation of the financial assets and liabilities
presented at fair value on the balance sheet. The provisions of FAS 159 are effective for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of
this statement.
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Executive Summary
We are a leading seismic solutions company, providing the global oil and natural gas industry
with a variety of seismic products and services, including seismic data acquisition equipment,
survey design planning services, software products, seismic data libraries, and seismic data
processing services. In recent years, we have transformed our business from being solely a seismic
equipment manufacturer to being a provider of a full range of seismic imaging products and services
including designing and planning a
seismic survey, overseeing the acquisition of seismic data by seismic contractors, and
processing the acquired seismic data using advanced algorithms and mode workflows. During 2004, we
completed two acquisitions as part of our strategy to expand the range of products and services we
provide. This expanded offering, including seismic data management software and advanced imaging
11
services, has enabled us to broaden our customer base beyond seismic acquisition contractors to
also include oil and natural gas exploration and production companies.
In January 2007, we created a new division, the I/O Solutions Division, which combined our
established Seismic Imaging Solutions data processing services and Integrated Seismic Solutions
service businesses of GX Technology Corporation (GXT) with two new business units FireFly
Solutions and Seabed Solutions. This division was created to deliver integrated hardware and
services solutions for full-wave imaging in both the land and marine environments. This division
will focus on addressing the customers entire seismic transaction from the data acquisition
phase to the data processing phase and will apply our latest developments in systems
and processing technology. The FireFly Solutions unit will focus on the integration of data
processing services with our new FireFly cableless full-wave land acquisition system, while the
Seabed Solutions unit will center on integrating our data processing services with our latest
generation of marine products. Revenue associated with the sale of FireFly equipment will continue
to be reported under the Land Imaging Systems segment. The creation of this new division did not
have an impact on our previously reported business segment classification.
Our current growth strategy is focused on the following key areas:
|
|
|
Expanding our I/O Solutions business in new regions with new customers and with new
service offerings, including proprietary services for owners and operators of oil and gas
properties; |
|
|
|
|
Globalizing our I/O Solutions data processing business by opening advanced imaging
centers in new locations, and expanding our presence in the land seismic processing segment; |
|
|
|
|
Successfully developing and introducing our next-generation of marine towed streamer
products; |
|
|
|
|
Expanding our seabed imaging solutions business using our VectorSeis® Ocean acquisition
platform and derivative products; |
|
|
|
|
Increasing our market share in cable-based land acquisition systems through our new Scorpion® acquisition system; and |
|
|
|
|
Ongoing development and further commercialization of FireFly, our cableless full-wave land acquisition system. |
For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007, our product revenues (equipment and
systems revenues) increased significantly over that for the comparable period in 2006. Our service
revenues declined for the three months ended June 30, 2007, mainly due to the timing and mix of
sales from our GXT multi-client seismic data library. Our service revenues slightly increased
during the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to 2006. All four of our operating business
segments experienced percentage increases in their revenues compared to their revenues for the
comparable six month period in 2006. Overall income from operations for the six months ended June
30, 2007 was approximately 7% higher than income from operations for the comparable period in 2006.
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we continued to see interest in our new
technologies. For example:
|
|
|
In the fourth quarter of 2006, we delivered our new FireFly cableless full-wave land
seismic data acquisition system for the first field application in a project in the
Wamsutter gas fields in Wyoming. In March 2007, Apache Corporation began their deployment of
this system at a project located in northeast Texas; the survey was completed in June 2007
and results are currently being assessed. In the first quarter of 2007, we recognized
revenues of $20.8 million associated with this system sale, which was used on both the
surveys in Wamsutter and northeast Texas. |
|
|
|
|
During February 2007, we announced the receipt of an order for approximately $29 million
from Reservoir Exploration Technology (RXT), a marine seismic contractor headquartered in
Oslo, Norway, for a fourth VectorSeis Ocean (VSO) redeployable ocean-bottom cable system. This
system is scheduled to begin delivery in the fourth quarter of 2007. In addition, in May
2007, we entered into a multi-year agreement with RXT under which RXT has agreed to purchase
a minimum of $160 million in VSO systems and related equipment over the
next four years. This agreement entitles us to receive a royalty of 2.1% of revenues
generated by RXT through the use of all VSO equipment from January 2008 through the term of
the agreement. In turn, this agreement allows RXT to have exclusive rights to this product
line through 2011. |
|
|
|
|
During the second quarter of 2007, we delivered nine of the 14 land acquisition systems
to Oil & Natural Gas Corporation, Ltd. (ONGC), the national oil company of India, resulting
in $35.5 million of revenues during the quarter. The remainder of these
systems is scheduled for delivery during the third quarter of this year. |
In March 2007, we obtained a $75.0 million revolving line of credit replacing our previously
available $25.0 million revolving line of credit, of which $16.0 million was outstanding at June
30, 2007. See further discussion below of the terms of this new credit facility at Liquidity
and Capital Resources.
On June 12, 2007, we entered into a series of agreements with Hydro Technology
Ventures and Reservoir Innovation AS for the formation of a joint venture company for the purpose of
developing, pilot testing and commercializing a full-wave seismic system for permanent monitoring
of offshore reservoirs. Hydro Technology is the venture capital arm of Hydro Oil & Energy, a
subsidiary of Norsk Hydro ASA, an energy and mining company. Reservoir Innovation is a privately held
company based in Bergen, Norway, and develops and commercializes breakthrough technologies for the
exploration, development, and production of offshore hydrocarbon reservoirs. Each party to the
joint venture has equal operational control over the joint venture company. Under the terms of the
12
agreement, we contributed (licensed) certain of our technology to the joint venture and agreed to
sell certain products and to provide temporary employee support to the joint venture.
We operate our company through four business segments: three of these segments Land Imaging
Systems, Marine Imaging Systems and Data Management Solutions make up our I/O Systems Division,
and the fourth segment is our I/O Solutions Division (formerly referred to as Seismic Imaging
Solutions). The following table provides an overview of key financial metrics for our company as a
whole and our four business segments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 compared
to that period one year ago (in thousands, except per share amounts):

We intend that the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations
will provide information that will assist in understanding our consolidated financial statements,
the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from quarter to quarter, and the
primary factors that accounted for those changes.
13
There are a number of factors that could impact our future operating results and financial
condition, and may if realized, cause our expectations set forth in this Form 10-Q and elsewhere to
vary materially from what we anticipate. See Part II, Item 1A Risk Factors below.
The information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains references to our
trademarks, service marks and registered marks, as indicated. Except where stated otherwise or
unless the context otherwise requires, the terms VectorSeis, GATOR, Scorpion, Orca and
FireFly refer to our VectorSeis®, GATOR®, Scorpion®, Orca® and FireFly® registered marks, and the
terms DigiFIN and DigiSHOT refer to our DigiFIN and DigiSHOT trademarks and service marks.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2006
Net Revenues: Net revenues of $165.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007
increased $24.2 million, or 17.2%, compared to the corresponding period last year. Land Imaging
Systems net revenues increased by $40.5 million, to $90.3 million compared to $49.8 million in the
corresponding period of last year. This increase included revenues related to the delivery of nine
land acquisition systems of our 14 system order from Indias ONGC we received in December
2006, and an increase in our vibrator truck sales during the second quarter of 2007. Marine Imaging
Systems net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007 decreased by $2.8 million to $35.7
million compared to $38.5 million in the corresponding period of last year, principally due to the
timing of a large order for VectorSeis Ocean (VSO) systems and equipment in the second quarter of
2006 ; this decline was partially offset by stronger sales of our marine positioning and source
products in the second quarter of 2007. We expect to begin delivering the next VectorSeis Ocean
system ordered by RXT in the fourth quarter of 2007. Our Data Management Solutions segment (Concept
Systems) contributed $10.6 million to our net revenues for the second quarter, compared to $5.7
million in the corresponding period of last year. This increase primarily reflects increased energy
industry demand for marine seismic work and for the companys GATOR® and newly launched Orca® towed
streamer navigation and data management applications product line.
Our I/O Solutions Divisions net revenues decreased by $18.4 million, to $28.6 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $47.0 million in the corresponding period of last
year. The results for the second quarter of 2006 included a large, multi-client
seismic data library sale, totalling $11.2 million. This sale accounted for the majority of our data library sales during
the second quarter of 2006; there was no similar transaction that occurred in the second quarter of 2007.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Percentage: Gross profit of $45.5 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2007 decreased $1.5 million, compared to the corresponding period last year. Gross
profit percentages for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were 27.5% and 33.3%,
respectively. The gross profit percentage decreased due primarily to the mix of business including
an increase in lower margin vibroseis trucks by Land Imaging Systems and the inclusion of a low-margin pre-funded
multi-client survey initiated in the first quarter of 2007 by I/O Solutions. This decrease was partially offset by
improved margins on our seabed and source products by Marine Imaging Systems and an increase in
higher margin Concept Systems sales in our Data Management Solutions segment.
Research and Development: Research and development expense was $13.0 million, or 7.9% of net
revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $4.8 million compared to $8.2
million, or 5.8% of net revenues, for the corresponding period last year. The increase is due
primarily to increased personnel costs related to additional hirings, contract labor and
professional fees as well as increased costs related to the development of our FireFly
version 2.0 system, DigiFIN advanced streamer command and control system and our integrated marine acquisition
system products. We expect to continue to incur significant research and development expenses as we
continue to invest heavily in the next generation of our seismic acquisition products and services,
such as our FireFly cableless land data acquisition system platform as well as our next generation
of marine products.
Marketing and Sales: Marketing and sales expense of $9.6 million, or 5.8% of net revenues, for
the three months ended June 30, 2007 decreased $0.9 million compared to $10.5 million, or 7.4% of
net revenues, for the corresponding period last year. The reduction in marketing and sales expense
as a percentage of net revenues reflects our focus on leveraging our marketing and sales costs with
our sales growth. The decrease in our sales and marketing expenditures reflects a decrease
in commissions and contract labor, partially offset by the hiring of additional sales personnel and
the creation of our two new business units, FireFly Solutions and Seabed
Solutions, within the I/O Solutions Division. We intend to continue investing significant sums
in our marketing efforts as we further penetrate markets for our new products.
General and Administrative: General and administrative expenses of $11.3 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2007 increased $0.4 million compared to $10.9 million for the second quarter
of 2006. General and administrative expenses as a percentage
14
of net revenues for the three months
ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were 6.8% and 7.7%, respectively. The reduction in general and
administrative expense as a percentage of net revenues reflects our focus on leveraging our
administrative costs with our sales growth. The increase in expenditures is primarily due to
higher payroll costs associated with an increase in management and corporate personnel, partially
offset by a decrease in professional accounting and consulting fees related to audit work in 2007.
Income Tax Expense: Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was $2.1 million
compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Income tax expense consists
mainly of non-U.S. and U.S. state income taxes since we continue to maintain a valuation allowance
for substantially all of our U.S. federal net deferred tax assets. Our effective tax rate
for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was 21.9% and 6.1%, respectively. The increase
in our effective tax rate relates primarily to improved profitability of our non-U.S.
operations, particularly within Concept Systems.
Preferred Dividend: The preferred dividend relates to our Series D-1 Preferred Stock we issued
in February 2005. Quarterly dividends may be paid, at our option, either in cash or by the issuance
of our common stock. Dividends are paid at a rate equal to the greater of (i) five percent per
annum or (ii) the three month LIBOR rate on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar
quarter plus two and one-half percent per annum. All dividends paid on the Series D-1 Preferred
Stock have been paid in cash. The Preferred Stock dividend rate was 7.85% at June 30, 2007.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2006
Net Revenues: Net revenues of $330.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 increased
$102.9 million, or 45.3%, compared to the corresponding period last year. Land Imaging Systems
net revenues increased by $78.9 million, to $163.7 million compared to $84.8 million in the
corresponding period of last year. The increase is due to increased systems sales related to our
ONGC order, the recognition of our FireFly sale in the first quarter and an increase in vibrator
truck sales compared to the first half of 2006. Marine Imaging Systems net revenues increased
$14.7 million to $79.8 million compared to $65.1 million in the corresponding period of last year
due to increased sales of towed streamer, positioning and source product lines resulting from
greater demand for our DigiSHOT digital air gun source control system and our positioning and
acoustic equipment. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in our marine acquisition
systems sales. Concept Systems contributed $17.2 million to our net revenues for the first six
months of 2007, compared to $10.1 million in the corresponding period of last year. This increase
primarily reflects increased energy industry demand for Concept Systems newly launched Orca
product line and for marine seismic work.
I/O Solutions Divisions net revenues increased $2.1 million to $69.4 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $67.3 million in the corresponding period last year. For
2007, increased demand for proprietary processing and pre-funded multi-client surveys exceeded the
prior years results, but were partially offset by lower sales of off-the-shelf seismic data. The
first six months of 2006 included a large, non-recurring multi-client seismic library sale that was
not duplicated during the first half of 2007.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Percentage: Gross profit of $83.5 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2007 increased $12.8 million, compared to the corresponding period last year. Gross
profit percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was 25.3% compared to 31.1% in the prior
year. The reduction in our gross margin percentage was primarily due to the recognition of the
sale of our first FireFly system (which, as a newly-developed system, had relatively high built-in
costs of sale) and the mix of business, including an increase in lower margin vibroseis trucks by Land Imaging Systems and
the inclusion of a low-margin pre-funded multi-client survey by I/O Solutions. This decrease was partially offset
by increased volume in our positioning and data acquisition system electronics by Marine Imaging
Systems.
Research and Development: Research and development expense was $23.2 million, or 7.0% of net
revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $7.9 million compared to $15.3
million, or 6.7% of net revenues, for the corresponding period last year. The increase was due
primarily to increased personnel costs related to additional hirings, contract labor and
professional fees as well as increased costs related to the development of our FireFly
version 2.0 system, our DigiFIN advanced streamer command and control system and our integrated marine
acquisition system products. We incurred significant research and development expenses during the
six months ended June 30, 2007 and expect to continue to incur significant research and development
expenses as we continue to invest heavily in the next generation of our seismic acquisition
products and services, such as FireFly and the next generation of marine products.
Marketing and sales: Marketing and sales expense of $20.2 million, or 6.1% of net revenues,
for the six months ended June 30, 2007 increased $1.6 million compared to $18.6 million, or 8.2% of
net revenues, for the corresponding period last year. The reduction in marketing and sales expense
as a percentage of net revenues reflects our focus on leveraging our marketing and sales costs with
our sales growth. The increase of our sales and marketing expenditures is mainly due to an
increase in corporate marketing and
15
advertising expenses and an increase in travel associated with
our global marketing efforts. We intend to continue investing significant sums in our marketing
efforts as we penetrate markets for our new products.
General and Administrative: General and administrative expenses of $22.6 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2007 increased $2.1 million compared to $20.5 million for the corresponding
period last year. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues for the six
months ended June 30, 2007 were 6.8% compared to 9.0% for the same period in 2006. The reduction
in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues reflects our focus on
leveraging our administrative costs with our sales growth. The increase in expenditures was
primarily due to higher payroll costs associated with an increase in management and corporate
personnel, partially offset by a decrease in professional accounting, consulting and legal fees
related to the on-going 2007 audit.
Income Tax Expense: Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $3.3 million
compared to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Income tax expense consists mainly
of non-U.S. and U.S. state income taxes since we continue to maintain a valuation allowance for
substantially all of our U.S. federal net deferred tax assets. Our effective tax rate for
the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was 22.8% and 14.0%, respectively. The increase in our
effective tax rate relates primarily to improved profitability of our non-U.S. operations,
particularly within Concept Systems.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Capital
In March 2007, we obtained a $75.0 million revolving line of credit (the Facility) with a
maturity date of March 2011. The Facility replaced our $25.0 million revolving line of credit
facility, which was scheduled to mature in May 2008. The outstanding balance of indebtedness under
the Facility was $16.0 million at June 30, 2007. The Facility is available for revolving credit
borrowings to be used for our working capital needs and general corporate purposes, subject to a
borrowing base. In addition, the Facility includes a $25.0 million sub-limit for the issuance of
documentary and standby letters of credit, of which $1.0 million had been issued at June 30, 2007. The
Facility may also be used to fund the repayment of our 5.50% convertible senior notes indebtedness
that is due on December 15, 2008 (Convertible Notes), so long as after funds are advanced for that
purpose, there remains at least $30.0 million under the borrowing base that is available for
borrowings under the Facility. See below for further discussion of our outstanding Convertible
Notes. The Facility includes an accordion feature under which the total commitments under the
Facility may be increased to $100.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.
The Facility borrowing base is calculated based on the sum of (i) 85% of our total eligible
accounts receivable, eligible foreign accounts receivable and insured foreign accounts receivable,
plus (ii) the lesser of (x) thirty percent (30%) of eligible inventory or (y) $20.0 million. For
purposes of this calculation, eligible foreign accounts receivable cannot exceed $23.5 million. As
of June 30, 2007, the borrowing base calculation permitted total borrowings of $75.0 million, of
which $58.0 million remained available.
The interest rate on borrowings under the Facility will be, at our option, (i) an alternate
base rate (as defined in the credit agreement) or (ii) for Eurodollar borrowings, a LIBOR rate
plus an applicable margin. The amount of the margin will be based on our then-current leverage
ratio as defined in the Facility credit agreement. The applicable margin will be increased by 0.50%
with respect to any borrowings that are applied to repay the Convertible Notes. The interest rate
in effect at June 30, 2007 was 8.25% per annum.
We are obligated to pay a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on the unused portion of the
Facility. A significant portion of our assets are pledged as collateral for outstanding borrowings
under the Facility. The Facility credit agreement restricts our ability to pay common stock
dividends, incur additional debt, sell significant assets, acquire other businesses, merge with
other entities and take certain other actions without the consent of the lenders. The credit
agreement requires compliance with certain financial and non-financial covenants, including
requirements to (i) maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.0, and (ii) not
exceed a maximum leverage ratio of 2.75 to 1.0 (upon retirement of the Convertible Notes debt, the
maximum leverage ratio will be reduced to 2.50 to 1.0 for 12 months, and then to 2.0 to 1.0
thereafter). At June 30, 2007, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under the credit
agreement.
In 2005, we issued 30,000 shares of a newly-designated Series D-1 Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock (Series D-1 Preferred Stock) in a privately-negotiated transaction, and received
$29.8 million in net proceeds. We also granted to the Series D-1 Preferred Stock purchaser an
option, which expires on February 16, 2008, to purchase up to an additional 40,000 shares of one or
more additional series of Series D Preferred Stock This option is currently exercisable. The
additional series of Series D Preferred Stock
16
that may be issued would have similar terms and
conditions as the Series D-1 Preferred Stock, but would have a conversion price equal to 122% of
the prevailing market price of our common stock at the time of issuance, and would not be less than
$6.31 per share (subject to adjustment in certain events). On July 13, 2007, the holder of the
Series D-1 Preferred Stock notified us of its election to exercise its option to purchase 15,000
shares of a new series of Series D Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $15 million. Under the
terms of the Series D Preferred Stock, the conversion price applicable to such additional shares
would be $16.653 per share, subject to adjustment for certain events. The purchase of the
additional shares of Series D Preferred Stock has not yet been completed, and the holder of the
Series D-1 Preferred Stock has the right to withdraw its election at any time prior to completion.
The holders of the Series D-1 Preferred Stock have the right to cause us to redeem all or a
portion of their shares of Series D-1 Preferred Stock for shares of registered common stock or, at
our election, for cash. The number of shares of common stock to be issued by us upon redemption
will be determined by dividing the stated value of the share of Series D-1 Preferred Stock being
redeemed by the prevailing market price of our common stock at the time of such redemption. If we
elect to redeem the shares of Series D-1 Preferred Stock for cash, then we will pay the holders a
redemption cash amount, which will also be based on the market price of the shares of common stock
otherwise issuable to such holders.
Our outstanding Convertible Notes mature on December 15, 2008. The Convertible Notes are not
redeemable prior to their maturity, and are convertible into common stock at an initial conversion
rate of 231.4815 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes (a conversion price of $4.32 per
share), which represents 13,888,890 total shares of common stock. We are considering various
alternatives with regard to the repayment or refinancing of the indebtedness under these notes,
which may include the use of our Facility. It is possible that any replacement of the debt capital
represented by these notes in new debt capital may have the effect of increasing our overall
borrowing costs.
The conversion price per share of common stock under the Series D-1 Preferred Stock and the
Convertible Notes is substantially below the currently prevailing market prices for our common
stock. Converting all of the Series D-1 Preferred Stock and Convertible Notes at one time would
result in significant dilution to our stockholders that could limit our ability to raise additional
capital.
Based on our forecasts and our liquidity requirements for the near term future, we believe
that the combination of our projected internally generated cash, the borrowing availability under
our revolving line of credit and our working capital (including our cash and cash equivalents on
hand), will be sufficient to fund our operational needs and liquidity requirements for at least the
next twelve months.
Cash Flow from Operations
We have historically financed operations from internally generated cash and funds from equity
and debt financings. Cash and cash equivalents were $11.5 million at June 30, 2007, a decrease of
$5.5 million from December 31, 2006. Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately
$8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $40.5 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2006. The decrease in net cash provided by our operating activities was primarily
due to increases in our inventories, partially offset by a reduction in our
receivables due to increased collections. We expect that the inventories level as of June 30,
2007 will be reduced due to the anticipated delivery of certain products in the third quarter of
2007 associated with the 14 system ONGC order.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Net cash flow used in investing activities was $28.5 million for the six months ended June 30,
2007, compared to $17.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The principal uses of cash
for our investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $24.2 million for
investments in our multi-client data library and $4.3 million for equipment purchases. We expect to
spend an additional $30 million to $60 million for investments in our multi-client data library and on equipment purchases during the remainder of 2007. The range of expenditures for the remainder
of the year could vary depending on the level of multi-client seismic data acquisition projects
that are initiated during the remainder of 2007. In general, a majority of direct expenses
associated with completing a multi-client survey are typically pre-funded by our customers.
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Net cash flow provided by financing activities was $14.7 million for the six months ended June
30, 2007, compared to $5.8 million of cash used in financing activities for the six months ended
June 30, 2006. The net cash flow during the six months ended June 30, 2007 was primarily related to
net borrowings of $16.0 million under our Facility and $4.6 million in proceeds related to the
exercise of
17
stock options and stock purchases by our employees during the six months ended June 30,
2007. This net cash flow was partially offset by scheduled principal payments of $4.6 million on
our notes payable and capital lease obligations and $1.2 million in cash dividends paid on our
outstanding Series D-1 Preferred Stock.
Inflation and Seasonality
Inflation in recent years has not had a material effect on our costs of goods or labor, or the
prices for our products or services. Traditionally, our business has been seasonal, with strongest
demand in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
General. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006,
for a complete discussion of our other significant accounting policies and estimates. There have
been no material changes in the current period regarding our critical accounting policies and
estimates, except for the following significant accounting policy.
Recently Adopted Accounting Principle
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No.
48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN
48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (FAS 109). FIN 48 clarifies
the application of FAS 109 by defining criteria that an individual tax position must meet for any
part of the benefit of that position to be recognized in the financial statements. Additionally,
FIN 48 provides guidance on the measurement, derecognition, classification and disclosure of tax
positions, along with accounting for the related interest and penalties. The provisions of FIN 48
are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, with the cumulative effect of the
change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings. We adopted
FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The adoption resulted in no adjustment to beginning retained earnings.
See Note 7 of Condensed Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional
information.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The
provisions of FAS 157 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are
currently evaluating the impact, if any, of this statement.
In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities (FAS 159). FAS 159 allows companies the option to report certain financial
assets and liabilities at fair value, establishes presentation and disclosure requirements and
requires additional disclosure surrounding the valuation of the financial assets and liabilities
presented at fair value on the balance sheet. The provisions of FAS 159 are effective for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, of this
statement.
Credit and Foreign Sales Risks
Historically, our principal customers have been seismic contractors that operate seismic data
acquisition systems and related equipment to collect data in accordance with their customers
specifications or for their own seismic data libraries. However, through the acquisition of GXT, we
have diversified our customer base to include major integrated and independent oil and gas
companies.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, $35.5 million, or 10.8%, of consolidated net revenues,
were attributable to land system sales to ONGC. At June 30, 2007, $30.0 million, or 21.2% of our
total accounts receivable related to this same customer. The outstanding balance of these
receivables is secured by letters of credit. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, $21.4
million, or 6.5%, and $21.4 million, or 9.4%, respectively, of consolidated net revenues, were
attributable to marine equipment sales to Reservoir Exploration Technology (RXT). At June 30, 2007,
$6.7 million of our total notes receivable related to this customer. The
loss of these customers or deterioration in our relationship with either of these customers
could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
18
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, we recognized $69.6 million of sales to customers in
Europe, $56.0 million of sales to customers in Asia Pacific, $21.9 million of sales to customers in
Africa, $19.5 million of sales to customers in the Middle East, $6.2 million of sales to customers
in Latin American countries, and $23.0 million of sales to customers in the Commonwealth of
Independent States, or former Soviet Union (CIS). The majority of our foreign sales are denominated
in U.S. dollars. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, international sales comprised 59%
and 76%, respectively of total net revenues. Certain of these countries have experienced economic
problems and uncertainties from time to time. To the extent that world events or economic
conditions negatively affect our future sales to customers in these and other regions of the world
or the collectibility of our existing receivables, our future results of operations, liquidity and
financial condition may be adversely affected. We currently require customers in these higher risk
countries to provide their own financing and in some cases have assisted the customer in organizing
international financing and Export-Import credit guarantees provided by the United States
government. We do not currently extend long-term credit through notes to companies in countries we
consider to be inappropriate for credit risk purposes.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Please refer to Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2006, for a discussion regarding the Companys quantitative and qualitative disclosures about
market risk. There have been no material changes to those disclosures during the three months ended
June 30, 2007.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of
management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted
an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures, as defined in Rules 13a 15(e) and 15d 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), as of June 30, 2007. Based on this evaluation, our principal
executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of June 30, 2007, our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to our
company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i)
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and
forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal
control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule
13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act that was conducted during the prior fiscal quarter, which have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
In September 2003, a former employee of the Company filed a lawsuit against us in the
127th Judicial District Court, Harris County, Texas, alleging that we terminated the
employees employment as the result of age discrimination. The case was transferred to the
268th District Court for Fort Bend County, Texas, and, in November 2005, the case was
removed to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas (Gaines Watkins v.
Input/Output, Inc., Civil Action No. H-05-03940). In June 2007, the case was tried to a jury, and
the jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff and found that the plaintiff was entitled to
a total of $450,000 in back pay and $50,000 in front pay. The jury also found that we acted
willfully in discharging the plaintiff. Under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the
plaintiff may be awarded an additional amount of liquidated damages equal to the plaintiffs lost
back wages if the jury determines that the age discrimination was willful. The judge may also
award the plaintiff reasonable attorneys fees and costs. As of the date of this filing, a judgment
has not yet been entered by the presiding judge; however, management believes that the ultimate
resolution of this case will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results
of operations or liquidity. At June 30, 2007, we recorded an estimated loss of $1.0 million attributable to this case.
We have been named in various other lawsuits or threatened actions that are incidental to our
ordinary business. Such lawsuits and actions could increase in number as our business expands and
we grow larger. Litigation is inherently unpredictable. Any claims against us, whether meritorious
or not, could be time consuming, cause us to incur costs and expenses, require significant amounts
of management time and result in the diversion of significant operational resources. The results of
these lawsuits and actions cannot be
19
predicted with certainty. We currently believe that the
ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse impact on our financial
condition, results of operations or liquidity.

These forward-looking statements reflect our best judgment about future events and trends
based on the information currently available to us. Our results of operations can be affected by
inaccurate assumptions we make or by risks and uncertainties known or unknown to us. Therefore, we
cannot guarantee the accuracy of the forward-looking statements. Actual events and results of
operations may vary materially from our current expectations and assumptions.
Information regarding factors that may cause actual results to vary from our expectations,
called risk factors, appears in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2006 in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors. There have been no material changes from the risk factors
previously disclosed in that Form 10-K, except for the addition of the following risk factor:
Reservoir Exploration Technology (RXT) has been a significant customer of the Companys Marine
Imaging Systems segment. A loss of business from this customer could adversely affect the Companys
sales and financial condition if RXT is not replaced by another customer or customers.
In May 2007, we entered into a multi-year agreement with RXT under which they have agreed to
purchase a minimum of $160 million in VectorSeis Ocean (VSO) systems and related equipment over the
next four years. In addition, this agreement entitles us to receive a royalty of 2.1% of revenues
generated by RXT through the use of all VSO equipment over the term of the agreement. In turn,
this agreement allows RXT to have exclusive rights to this product line through 2011.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, $21.4 million, or 6.5%, and $21.4 million, or
9.4%, respectively, of consolidated net revenues, were attributable to marine equipment sales to RXT. At June 30, 2007, $6.7 million of our total notes
receivable related to this customer. The loss of this customer or a significant reduction in their
equipment or systems needs could reduce our sales volumes and revenues and lessen our cash flows,
and thereby have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Unless we can broaden our customer base, we can give no assurances that the revenues and cash flows
from the customer can be replaced. To the extent that the risks faced by RXT cause it to curtail
its business activities or to make timely payments to its suppliers, we are subject to the same
risks.
