Mind Technology, Inc. Reports Fiscal 2025 Second Quarter Results (9/11/24)
THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Sept. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- MIND Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MIND) ("MIND" or the "Company") today announced financial results for its fiscal 2025 second quarter ended July 31, 2024.
Revenues from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 were approximately $10.0 million compared to approximately $7.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. The Company reported operating income from continuing operations of approximately $1.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to an operating loss of $767,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 amounted to $798,000 compared to a loss of approximately $1.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Second quarter of fiscal 2025 net loss attributable to common shareholders (after declared and undeclared preferred stock dividends) was $149,000, or a loss of $0.11 per share compared to a loss of approximately $2.4 million, or a loss of $1.74 per share in the second quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was approximately $1.8 million compared to a loss of $120,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, which is a non-GAAP measure, is defined and reconciled to reported net income (loss) from continuing operations and cash used in operating activities in the accompanying financial tables. These are the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP.
The backlog of Marine Technology Products related to our Seamap segment as of July 31, 2024 was approximately $26.2 million compared to approximately $17.0 million at July 31, 2023.
Rob Capps, MIND's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We delivered positive results for our fiscal second quarter that were in line with our expectations and achieved further operational efficiencies that drove margin improvement. In addition to streamlining our operations and narrowing our strategic focus with the sale of Klein, we have been able to implement various cost containment initiatives that have meaningfully enhanced our financial results over the last twelve months. Our backlog remains strong, and is over 50% above the year ago amount. Furthermore, our pipeline of pending orders and prospects is also strong, with over $6 million of orders having been added since quarter end or that we expect shortly. This activity and ongoing discussions regarding other pending orders demonstrate the significant customer demand we are seeing across our differentiated product lines.
"Given our enhanced cost structure, current visibility, and robust customer engagement, we fully expect to achieve year-over-year revenue growth, positive Adjusted EBITDA and greater full year profitability in fiscal 2025.
"As announced last week, we have completed the conversion of our preferred stock to common stock. This is an important step for MIND. It simplifies our capital structure and, in my opinion, sets the stage for creating meaningful stockholder value," concluded Capps.

MIND Technology Reminds Preferred Stockholders To Vote Proxies (8/05/24)
THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Aug. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- MIND Technology, Inc. ("MIND" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: MIND; MINDP) will reconvene its virtual special meeting (the "Special Meeting") of holders of its 9% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") on Thursday, August 29, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. Central Time.

Preferred stockholders have previously approved a proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting one or more times to give the Company's management additional time to solicit additional proxies to approve the Preferred Stock Proposal. Given the length of the adjournment, a new record date of Tuesday, July 16, 2024 was established for the Special Meeting.
The Company filed a revised proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on July 22, 2024 and distributed such proxy to holders of record as of July 16, 2024 who will be eligible to vote at the Special Meeting. Previously voted proxies are no longer valid.
Rob Capps, President and CEO of MIND, stated, "We understand that the new meeting date creates some confusion since previously cast proxies are no longer valid and must be voted again.

If you have not yet received the revised proxy statement, please contact your broker or other nominee for instructions on how to vote.

MIND TECHNOLOGY, INC. REPORTS FISCAL 2024 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
THE WOODLANDS, Texas, June 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- MIND Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MIND) ("MIND" or the "Company") today announced financial results for its fiscal 2024 first quarter ended April 30, 2023.
Revenues from Marine Technology Products sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 were $12.6 million compared to $12.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 and $9.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.
The Company reported operating income of $289,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to losses of $221,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 and approximately $2.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The net loss (after income taxes) for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was $240,000 compared to net income of $666,000 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 and a net loss of approximately $2.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. First quarter of fiscal 2024 net loss attributable to common shareholders was $0.09 per share compared to $0.02 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 and $0.24 in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was approximately $913,000 compared to $1.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 and a loss of $1.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, which is a non-GAAP measure, is defined and reconciled to reported net income (loss) from continuing operations and cash used in operating activities in the accompanying financial tables. These are the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
The backlog of Marine Technology Products as of April 30, 2023, was approximately $22.6 million compared to $20.7 million at January 31, 2023 and $13.4 million at April 30, 2022.
Rob Capps, MIND's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are pleased to report positive results for the second quarter in a row, having produced positive operating income and Adjusted EBITDA with significantly improved revenues year-over-year. Our first quarter revenues from continuing operations increased 39% year-over-year, with our Seamap segment making up a meaningful portion of that growth. I think it's noteworthy that we saw sequential improvement at the operating level. The sequential improvement in operating income was partially driven by an increase in gross margin to approximately 43% in the current quarter versus 36% in the prior quarter. Our backlog of $22.6 million was up over 68% from the $13.4 million we reported during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 and improved on a sequential basis, demonstrating the strong demand growth we continue to see in our key markets. Inquiry and bidding activity remain robust as we work to further expand our backlog. Our backlog reflects the continued positive momentum that we are experiencing in various markets, and we believe that our differentiated marine technology products are uniquely positioned to benefit from favorable market trends.
"As we progress throughout fiscal 2024, we continue to believe the positive trend for order flow will continue. Additionally, we believe the underlying market fundamentals are positive and those have contributed to the increase in order activity. The current geopolitical situation emphasizes the need for maritime security and other defense applications. The constructive pricing environment in the energy market is positive for our customers in that space. The trend towards renewable energy, such as wind farms, is a positive development for our marine survey customers. We plan to continue to execute our long-term strategic initiatives and position the Company to become a leading provider of innovative marine technology and products," concluded Capps.
