Business Strategy
  
    
    Provide a technologically advanced seismic equipment lease pool.We intend to maintain
the size and diversity of our equipment lease pool, including the addition of marine
equipment. We believe that the availability of a large and diverse seismic equipment
lease pool encourages seismic data acquisition contractors to lease, rather than
purchase, such equipment, due to the capital and operating efficiencies provided by
short-term leases.
    
    Continue to expand international operations.Historically, North and South
America have been our core operating areas, with a limited amount of international leasing
activities; however, our revenues from international sources have increased. We intend to
expand our international leasing and sales activities utilizing Seamaps and MSEs
activities and locations to exploit new opportunities. We believe there are significant
opportunities to continue to expand our international leasing and sales activities.
    
    Maintain alliances with major seismic equipment manufacturers.Our
relationships with leading seismic equipment manufacturers allow us to expand our
equipment lease pool on favorable terms. We believe such relationships improve our access
to customers and provide a competitive advantage.
    
    Pursue additional business development opportunities.We regularly evaluate
opportunities to expand our business activities within the oil service industry,
particularly in the seismic sector.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 Restatement of Financial Statements
   
    
    Historically, the Company has reflected cash flows from continuing operations within
the operating, investing and financing categories and has aggregated operating,
investing and financing cash flows from discontinued operations as a single line item
in its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company has now restated its
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to reflect cash flows from discontinued
operations within each category of operating, investing and financing activities.
    
    The Company had also previously reported cash receipts from the sale of lease pool
equipment as operating activities. The Company has now determined that cash receipts
from the sale of used lease pool equipment should be classified as investing activities
and the Gross profit from sale of lease pool equipment should be reflected as a
deduction in operating activities.
    
    Finally, the Company has reclassified certain of its investments in certificates of deposit
from cash and cash equivalents to short-term investments.
