NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

1. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated balance sheet of Geospace Technologies Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) at* September 30, 2024*, was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements at that date. The consolidated balance sheet at* March 31, 2025* and the consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity and cash flows for thethree andsix months ended* March 31, 2025and2024* were prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows were made. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for thethree andsix months ended* March 31, 2025*, arenot necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full year or of future operations.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") were omitted pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the Company’s fiscal year ended* September 30, 2024*.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company considers many factors in selecting appropriate operational and financial accounting policies and controls, and in developing the estimates and assumptions that are used in the preparation of these financial statements. The Company continually evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, credit loss, collectability of rental revenue, inventory obsolescence reserves, self-insurance reserves, product warranty reserves, useful lives of long-lived assets, impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets and deferred income tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. While management believes current estimates are reasonable and appropriate, actual results* may*differ from these estimates under different conditions or assumptions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original or remaining maturity at the time of purchase ofthree months or less to be cash equivalents. At* March 31, 2025* and* September 30, 2024,*cash and cash equivalents included $0.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively, held by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries and branch offices.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company sells products to customers throughout the United States and various foreign countries. The Company’s normal credit terms for trade receivables are 30 days. In certain situations, credit terms* maybe extended to 60 days or longer. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally doesnot* require collateral for its trade receivables. Additionally, the Company provides long-term financing in the form of promissory notes and sales-type leases when competitive conditions require such financing. In such cases, the Company* mayrequire collateral. Allowances are recognized immediately for expected credit losses. The Company determines the allowance for credit losses through a review of several factors, including historical collection experience, customer credit worthiness, current aging of customer accounts and financial conditions of its customers. Receivables are charged off against the allowance whenever it is probable that the balance willnot* be recoverable.

The Company had trade accounts and financing receivables fromtwo customers of $17.2 million and $9.7 million, respectively at* March 31, 2025*. The Company recognized revenue from these customers of $0.8 million and $33,000, respectively, for thethree months ended* March 31, 2025,and $19.5 million and $75,000, respectively, for thesix* months ended* March 31, 2025.The Company recognized revenue from these customers of $2.3 million and $3.2, respectively, for thethree* months ended* March 31, 2024,and $33.7 million and $6.7 million, respectively, for thesix* months ended* March, 31, 2024,*respectively.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company's long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever an event or circumstance indicates that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets* maynot* be recoverable. The impairment review, if necessary, includes a comparison of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by an asset group with the associated carrying value of the related assets. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the expected future cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value of the asset group exceeds its fair value. During the quarter ended* March 31, 2025*,no events or changes in circumstances were identified indicating the carrying value of any of the Company's asset groups* maynot* be recoverable.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In* November 2023,the FASB issued guidance which updates reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023,and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024.*Early adoption is permitted. The guidance shall be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In* December 2023,the FASB issued guidance improvements on income tax disclosure which will require the Company to disclose specified additional information in its income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. The guidance will also require the Company to disaggregate its income taxes paid disclosure by federal, state and foreign taxes, with further disaggregation required for significant individual jurisdictions. The Company will adopt this guidance in itsfourth* quarter of fiscal year2026. The guidance allows for adoption using either a prospective or retrospective transition method. The adoption of this guidance isnot expected to have any material impact on its consolidation financial statements.

In* November 2024,the FASB, as further amended in January 2025,issued guidance requiring enhanced disclosures in financial statements by requiring detailed disclosures of specific expenses like inventory purchases, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026,and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027.*Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

2. Revenue Recognition

In accordance with ASC Topic606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC606”), the Company recognizes revenue when performance of contractual obligations are satisfied, generally when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The Company primarily derives product revenue from the sale of its manufactured products. Revenue from these product sales, including the sale of used rental equipment, is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied, control is transferred and collectability of the sales price is probable. The Company records deferred revenue when customer funds are received prior to shipment or delivery or performance hasnot yet occurred. The Company assesses collectability during the contract assessment phase. In situations where collectability of the sales price isnot probable, the Company recognizes revenue when it determines that collectability is probable or when non-refundable cash is received from its customers and there isnot a significant right of return. Transfer of control generally occurs with shipment or delivery, depending on the terms of the underlying contract. The Company’s products are generally sold without any customer acceptance provisions, and the Company’s standard terms of sale donot allow customers to return products for credit.

Revenue from engineering services is recognized as services are rendered over the duration of a project, or as billed on a per hour basis. Field service revenue is recognized when services are rendered and is generally priced on a per day rate.

As permissible under ASC606, sales taxes and transaction-based taxes are excluded from revenue. The Company doesnot disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration ofone year or less. Additionally, the Company expenses costs incurred to obtain contracts when incurred because the amortization period would have beenone year or less. These costs are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. The Company has elected to treat shipping and handling activities in a sales transaction after the customer obtains control of the goods as a fulfillment cost andnot as a promised service. Accordingly, fulfillment costs related to the shipping and handling of goods are accrued at the time of shipment. Amounts billed to a customer in a sales transaction related to reimbursable shipping and handling costs are included in revenue and the associated costs incurred by the Company for reimbursable shipping and handling expenses are reported in cost of revenue.

The Company also generates revenue from short-term rentals under operating leases of its manufactured products. Rentals of the Company’s equipment generally range from daily rentals to minimum rental periods of up toone year. Rental revenue is recognized within the scope of ASC842, Leases ("ASC842"). The Company regularly evaluates the collectability of its lease receivables on a lease-by-lease basis. The evaluation primarily consists of reviewing past due account balances and other factors such as the credit quality of the customer, historical trends of the customer and current economic conditions. In accordance with ASC842, rental revenue is recognized as earned over the rental period if collectability of the rent is reasonably assured. When collectability of amounts areno longer probable the Company records a direct write-off of the rent receivable to rental revenue and limits future rental revenue recognition to cash received. During thesecond quarter of fiscal year2025, the Company determined the collectibility of receivables from a rental customer was less than probable. As a result of this determination, the rent receivable balance due from this customer of $2.2 million was reversed against rental revenue. As a result of reversal, the Company's consolidated rental revenue for thethree ended* March 31, 2025*was in a negative position ($0.7 million). Any future cash received from this customer will be recognized as rental revenue.

At* March 31, 2025* and* September 30, 2024*, the Company hadno deferred contract liabilities. At* March 31, 2025* and* September 30, 2024*, the Company had deferred contract costs of $0.2 million, and zero, respectively. During thethree andsix months ended* March 31, 2025*, no revenue was recognized from deferred contract liabilities andno cost of revenue was recognized from deferred contract costs. For each of thethree andsix months ended* March 31, 2024*, revenue of $1.0 million was recognized from deferred contract liabilities. During thethree andsix months ended* March 31, 2024*, no cost of revenue was recorded from deferred contract costs. At* March 31, 2025*, all contracts had an original expected duration ofone year or less. At* March 31, 2025and October 1, 2024,the Company had accounts receivable from contracts with customers of $13.2 million and $12.6 million, respectively. At March 31, 2024and October 1, 2023,*the Company had accounts receivable from contracts with customers of $12.5 million and $11.1 million, respectively. Accounts receivable from contracts with customers excludes accounts receivable from rental contracts.

For thethree andsix months ended* March 31, 2025*, no revenue recognized from contracts with customers satisfied over-time. For each of thethree andsix months ended* March 31, 2024*, revenue from contracts with customers satisfied over-time was $1.0 million, which was from the Company's Intelligent Industrial segment. All other revenue from contracts with customers was recognized at a point-in time.

Assets and liabilities Measured on a Nonrecurring basis

In* August 2024,the Company performed a fair value analysis on its $3.5 million promissory note obtained in connection with its subsidiary sale as of the transaction date. The measurements utilized to determine the implied fair value of the note receivable obtained significant unobservable inputs (Level3*). The derivation of discount rate utilized in the analysis was based on comparable market yields. Based on the analysis, the Company recorded a $0.9 million discount to fair value on this note receivable. Also see Note5 for more information.

At* September 30, 2024,the Company performed a recoverability assessment on its long-lived assets of its Emerging Markets asset group in which its carrying value was compared to the estimated undiscounted cash flows over the remaining useful life of the asset group's primarily asset, its developed technology. Accordingly, a fair value analysis was performed. Based on the assessment, the Company determined the fair value of the asset was less than its carrying value and recorded an impairment charge of $2.8 million on this asset group, which impaired its intangible assets in their entirety. The Company determined the fair value of this asset group to be approximately zero. The measurements utilized to determine the implied fair value represented significant unobservable inputs (Level3*).

For the calculation of diluted earnings per share for each of thethree andsix months ended* March 31, 2025*, there were 354,965 non-vested RSUs, respectively, excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding since their impact on diluted earnings per share were antidilutive. For the calculation of diluted earnings per share for thethree andsix months ended* March 31, 2024*, there were 400,020 and 225,569 non-vested RSUs, respectively, excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding since their impact on diluted earnings per share were antidilutive.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingent Compensation Costs

In* July 2021,the Company acquired Aquana, LLC (“Aquana”). Pursuant to the merger agreement with Aquana, as amended ("the Merger Agreement"), the Company is subject to additional contingent cash payments to the former members of Aquana over aseven-year earn-out period. The contingent payments, if any, will be derived from certain eligible revenue generated during the earn-out period from products and services sold by Aquana. There isno* maximum limit to the contingent cash payments that could be made. The Merger Agreement requires the continued employment of a certain key employee and former member of Aquana for thefirst five years of theseven-year earn-out period in order for any of Aquana’s former members to be eligible for any earn-out payments. Due to the continued employment requirement, no liability has been recorded for the estimated fair value of earn-out payments for this transaction. Earn-outs achieved are recorded as compensation expense when incurred.
