Very strong start to the year

PARIS, France – May 14, 2024 – CGG (ISIN: FR0013181864), a global technology and high-performance computing leader, announced today its first quarter 2024 non-audited results.

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

"I am very pleased with our first quarter performance. At \$273m, we delivered the best first quarter revenue since our strategic decision to become an asset light company in late 2018. Our \$30m net cash generation, together with the recent upgrade of our long-term debt by S&P Global Ratings are positive steps of our financial trajectory and balance sheet deleveraging. The continued strong market environment across our core segments, combined with CGG's recent backlog pickup, further increases our confidence in achieving our 2024 financial targets."
