Commenting on these results, Sophie Zurquiyah, CGG CEO, said:

"Our performance was very strong this quarter, across all three businesses. In particular, Multi-client delivered high prefunding and after-sales, which included favorable one-off transfer fees. In the current market environment, with E&P companies continuing to prioritize spending around quicker returns, and generating free cash flow, we remain focused on bringing new technology to our clients for their near field exploration, field development and reservoir optimization needs. We further advanced our subsurface imaging and data science technology, delivering superior reservoir understanding to our clients, and providing support for their digitalization agendas. Also during the quarter, we launched GPR, Sercel's new ocean bottom node. Cash flow generation remains our priority, and, with our very high net cash flow of \$167m this quarter, we confirm that CGG will generate positive net cash flow in 2019."

GGR segment revenue was \$285 million, up 48% year-on-year.

  • Geoscience total production (external revenue + internal production dedicated to the processing of CGG multi-clients programs) was \$128 million, stable year on year.
  • Geoscience external revenue was \$95 million, up 2% year-on-year.

Despite continuing solid demand for high-end OBN projects, delays during their acquisition phase are affecting Geoscience production. Backlog is stable year-on-year and deep-water activity is improving. CGG remains strongly focused on high value projects and technology development including effective application of machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies in the GeoSoftware reservoir characterization workflows.

Multi-Client revenue was \$190 million this quarter, up 92% year on year.

Prefunding revenue of our Multi-client projects reached \$65 million this quarter, up 80% from \$36 million in the third quarter of 2018. Multi-Client cash capex was at \$(57) million this quarter with a 113% prefunding rate.

Our Multi-client programs this quarter were driven by offshore projects in Brazil and the Barents Sea, where we completed our TopSeis multi-client study, and onshore projects in the US Lower 48.

After-sales were \$125 million this quarter, up 99% year-on-year, driven by strong demand for our data and one-off transfer fees.

The segment library Net Book Value was \$434 million (\$615 million after IFRS 15 adjustment) at the end of September 2019, split 90% offshore and 10% onshore.

GGR segment EBITDAs was \$209 million, up 84% year-on-year, a high 73% margin driven by favorable Multi-client mix and improved Geoscience profitability.

GGR segment operating income was \$103 million, up 75%, a 36% margin, including \$(19) million from the application of the 4-year straight-line amortization.

GGR capital employed was \$2 billion at the end of September 2019.

Equipment segment revenue was \$100 million up 6% year-on-year.

External sales were \$97 million, a 9% increase year-on-year.

Land equipment sales represented around 64% of total sales, driven in particular by channels deliveries in the Middle East and North Africa, and Marine equipment sales represented 25% of total sales.

Equipment segment EBITDAs was \$23 million, up 30% year-on-year, a margin of 23%, driven by strong volumes.

Equipment segment operating income was \$16 million, up 54%, a margin of 16%, on better absorption of manufacturing costs with higher volumes.

Equipment capital employed was \$0.5 billion at the end of September 2019.
