[{"type":"text","content":" HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nGeospace Technologies (NASDAQ: GEOS) today announced a net loss of $0.8 million, or $(0.06) per diluted share, on revenue of $23.1 million for its third quarter ended June 30, 2021. This compares with a net loss of $2.3 million, or ($0.17) per diluted share, on revenue of $22.7 million for the third quarter of the prior year period.\n\nFor the nine-months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded revenue of $75.4 million compared to revenue of $66.3 million during the prior year period.

Notably however, rental revenue in this third quarter more than doubled in comparison to the preceding quarter, providing some indication of OBX demand improving as new projects go forward.”\n\nWheeler continued, “In opposition to lower revenue from our Oil and Gas Markets segment, revenue from our Adjacent Markets segment represents major year-over-year increases for both the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2021. The respective increases of 84% and 30% for the three- and nine-month periods can be attributed in both periods to a variety of factors, including stronger sales of our smart water meter cables and connectors, higher utilization of our contract manufacturing services, and greater demand for our graphic imaging products. When recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic gains traction, we believe demand for the...
