Fourth Quarter & Full Year 2014 Key Figures before Non-Recurring Charges (NRC)

Commenting on these results, Jean-Georges Malcor, CGG CEO, said:

"Even in the context of a strongly deteriorating market, CGG delivered good operational results in the fourth quarter of 2014, thanks to an excellent contribution by our Equipment and GGR divisions, with record sales from our multi-client surveys driven particularly by the success of our StagSeis program in the Gulf of Mexico. We generated \$187m in free cash flow and reduced our debt leverage to 2.4x EBITDA.

The Transformation Plan we launched at the end of 2013 and accelerated in 2014, has led to a close to 12% reduction in our headcount, the reduction of our fleet from 18 to 13 vessels and the lowering of our breakeven point.

Taking into account the reduced client activity due to the very strong fall in oil prices at year-end and in line with our portfolio rebalancing strategy, we have decided to further reduce our fleet to 11 vessels in 2015 and to launch an additional cost savings and CAPEX reduction plan. In this way, with a rebalanced portfolio of assets centered on a high-end technological offering, thanks to a fully integrated model combining Equipment, Data Acquisition and Geosciences (GGR) and with no significant debt instalment due before 2019, our group is better dimensioned and positioned to weather current market conditions."

Fourth quarter 2014 results:

• o Revenue at \$906m, up 31% sequentially
• o Operating income, before Non-Recurring Charges (NRC), at \$111m, up 118% sequentially, a 12% margin
• o Negative contribution from Equity Income at \$42m mainly driven by the SBGS Joint-Venture and leading to Group EBIT, before NRC, at \$69m
• o Sustained Q4 EBITDA at \$402m, up 93% sequentially and positive Free Cash Flow before NRC at \$187m
• o Following the deterioration of market conditions and the reduction in CGG fleet, assets impairment & write-off and Non-Recurring Charges of \$643m:
• \$567m split between \$415m of Marine goodwill impairment and \$152m of additional restructuring costs
• \$76m write-off related to our multi-client library
• o Net Income at \$(667)m after NRC

Full year 2014 results:

• o 2014 Revenue at \$3,095m
• o Operating income, before NRC, at \$242m
• o Negative contribution from Equity Income of \$(82)m mainly driven by the SBGS JV and leading to Group EBIT, before NRC, at \$160m
• o Full year EBITDA at \$994m
• o Assets impairment, write-off and Non-Recurring Charges of \$939m:
• \$697m split between \$415m of marine goodwill impairment and \$282m of restructuring costs related to the two phases of the Transformation Plan
• \$113m write-off related to multi-client library, notably in Brazil and North Sea
• \$129m write-off mainly related to Seabed activities

Data Acquisition division Total Revenue was \$316 million, down 31% year-on-year and down 24% sequentially with a solid vessel production rate and a slowdown in Land activity. External revenue was \$208 million, down 34% year-on-year due to the reduction in our marine and land activity perimeter, and to deteriorating market conditions.

• Marine Acquisition revenue was \$278 million, down 23% year-on-year and down 22% sequentially. 36% of the fleet was dedicated this quarter to multi-client programs. Our vessel availability rate was 87% due to typically high transit at this time of the year and production rate was a solid 92% which compares to a 90% production rate year-on-year and a 92% rate in the third quarter of 2014. The decrease in revenue was due to the impact of the fleet reduction (from 18 vessels at end of December 2013 to 13 vessels at end of December 2014) and to deteriorating market conditions.
• Land and Airborne Acquisition revenue was \$38 million, down 60% year-on-year and down 37% sequentially due to the reduction in our activity perimeter and difficult market conditions globally. In Q4, airborne activity was significantly restructured with the introduction of a new organization to enhance operational efficiency.

Data Acquisition division EBITDAs was \$35.3 million, a margin of 11.2%.

Data Acquisition division Operating Income was \$(43.6) million. Operating Income was impacted by low prices in marine and weak activity in land and airborne, partially offset by lower costs.

Data Acquisition division EBIT was \$(82.7) million, impacted by difficult market conditions and the negative contribution of the equity from investees, mainly relating to the SBGS JV.

Data Acquisition EBIT after NRC includes \$(567.0) million of non-recurring items: \$(152) million relating to the new phase in our Transformation Plan for the Data Acquisition division and \$(415) million relating to marine goodwill impairment.

Data Acquisition division Capital Employed was \$1.5 billion at the end of December 2014.

Full-Year 2014 Financial Results

Group Total Revenue was \$3.095 billion down (18)% compared to 2013. This figure breaks down to 22% from the Equipment division, 33% from the Acquisition division and 45% from the GGR division.

• o The Equipment division's revenue was down (23)%. 64% of total sales related to land equipment and 36% to marine equipment. Internal sales represented 14% of total sales in 2014 compared to 20% in 2013. This decrease is due to a low level of equipment bought by CGG Marine given that five vessels were taken out of the seismic market.
• o Acquisition revenue was down (20)%. The decrease in the Acquisition division's contribution to overall revenue is due to the reduction in our Marine activity perimeter (from 18 vessels to 13 vessels at end of December 2014) and our Land activity perimeter (Ardiseis deconsolidated and NAM activity sold to Geokinetics) and to difficult market conditions in all businesses. Production rate was at 92% stable compared to 2013.
• o GGR revenue was up 7%. Multi-client revenue was up 11% with a particularly strong Q4, mainly driven by prefunding revenues from our StagSeis program in the Gulf of Mexico. Subsurface Imaging and Reservoir delivered a strong contribution this year with a 3% increase in revenues year-on-year.

Group Operating Income was \$241.9 million, a margin of 7.8%. After NRC, Group Operating Income was \$(697.5) million. Market conditions deteriorated over the year with a slowdown in client spending and the postponement of projects. In this context, we decided at end of July 2014 to accelerate and intensify our Transformation Plan launched at year-end 2013.

• The Operating Income margin for Equipment was at 20.5%. The Equipment division shows a strong resilience to market downturn thanks to efficient cost management and manufacturing flexibility, despite lower volumes. R&D expenses were sustained at 6.2% of revenue.
• The Operating Income margin for Acquisition was at (1.3)% (excluding nonrecurring items linked to the Transformation Plan), despite a high production rate at 92% and good operational performance. The profitability of our Acquisition division was impacted by difficult market conditions and by a change in the operated perimeter.
• The Operating Income margin for GGR was at 24.8% with a solid performance across all the businesses. Multi-client activity was excellent in H2 and the prefunding rate for the whole year was at a record high of 86%. The multi-client depreciation rate totaled 69% leading to a Net Book Value of \$947 million at the end of December. Subsurface Imaging delivered an excellent performance this year in all locations. Reservoir and geology activities exceeded expectations with a strong demand for reservoir and geology products.

Balance Sheet

Financial Management:

CGG conducted two refinancing transactions in April to extend its average debt maturity periods from 4.3 years at the beginning of 2014 to 5.3 years by the end of 2014:

• A €400 million European High Yield Bond at 5.875%, the lowest rate ever obtained for a High Yield Bond issued by CGG, due 2020:
• o The net proceeds were dedicated to the 100% repurchase of the €360 million OCEANE Convertible Bond due January 2016 and the reimbursement of the 2015 installment of the Fugro Vendor Loan
• A \$500 million High Yield Bond at 6.875% due 2022
• o The net proceeds were dedicated to the reimbursement of all the 9.5% Senior Notes due May 2016, for a total principal amount of \$225 million, as well as of a portion of the 7.75% Senior Notes due May 2017, for a total principal amount of \$400 million
• On 21 July, CGG negotiated a one-year extension of the French Revolving Credit Facility to maintain the three-year maturity
• In order to increase our financial flexibility, we have revised certain terms in several of our credit facilities, namely our French revolving facility (\$325 million), our US revolving facility agreement (\$165 million), our U.S. \$200 million Nordic credit facility led by Nordea and our U.S.\$45 million Term Loan Facility secured by the Geowave Voyager vessel. Pursuant to such amendments, the maximum leverage ratio (defined as total net financial debt to EBITDAs) was increased from a constant ratio of 3.00x to a ratio of 3.75x for each rolling 12-month period ending on or before September 2015, 3.50x for each such period ending on or before September 2016, 3.25x for each such period ending on or before September 2017 and 3.00x thereafter
• On 16 December, CGG completed its 2014 debt refinancing program with the amendment and extension of its Nordic credit facility led by Nordea. The credit amount was increased from \$175m to \$250m and the maturity extended from May 2018 to December 2019.

Net Debt to Equity Ratio:

Group gross debt was \$2,779 billion at the end of December 2014. Available cash was \$359 million and Group net debt was \$2,420 billion.

Net debt to equity ratio, at the end of December 2014, was 90% compared to 77% at end of September 2014.
