The Company's vessels were allocated 31% to multi-client projects and 21% to funded research and development projects, while no vessel capacity was allocated to contract work. For the third quarter of 2015, the Company had a total utilisation of 64%, with 16% allocated to contract work and 48% to multi-client projects.
Revenues for the first nine months of 2016 totaled USD 32.5 million, compared with USD 60.6 million in the corresponding period during 2015.
Charter hire, fuel and crew expenses totaled USD 2.7 million in the third quarter this year, compared with USD 9.3 million in the third quarter last year. The Company capitalised USD 3.6 million in multi-client and JIP test expenses in the quarter, while USD 8.4 million was capitalised in the third quarter of 2015. The charter hire, fuel and crew expenses have decreased from USD 17.7 million in the third quarter of 2015 to USD 6.3 million in same period this year when adding back the capitalised expenses. The main reason for decreased expenses is reduced activity, resulting in lower vessel lease, fuel, vessel crew and other related costs.

So far this year, the Company has recorded charter hire, fuel and crew expenses of USD 11.9 million, down from USD 20.6 million in 2015.

Employee expenses for the first nine months were USD 19.1 million in 2016, compared with USD 33.6 million in 2015.

For the first nine months of 2016, other operating expenses amounted to USD 8.3 million, down from USD 15.1 million in the same period last year. The decrease is mainly explained by a reduction in activity.
Depreciation and ordinary amortisation totaled USD 1.7 million in the third quarter of 2016, down from USD 3.5 million in the third quarter of 2015. The reduction is due to various assets becoming fully depreciated.
Multi-client amortisation amounted to USD 2.8 million this quarter, compared with USD 2.6 million in the third quarter of 2015. As communicated in the financial report for the fourth quarter 2015, EMGS changed its principles for multi-client amortisation from 1 January 2016 and onwards. The Company now uses straight-line amortisation for its completed multi-client projects, assigned over the useful life time of 4 years. The amortisation is then distributed evenly, independently of sales during the quarter.
In the third quarter of 2015, the Company recorded a multi-client impairment of USD 3.9 million and an impairment on equipment of USD 1.6 million. No impairment was done in the third quarter this year.
Depreciation and ordinary amortisation decreased from USD 10.0 million in the first nine months of 2015 to USD 5.7 million in 2016. Multi-client amortisation totaled USD 8.4 million for the first nine months of 2016, up from USD 4.5 million in 2015.

The loss was reclassified from comprehensive income to net financial items in the income statement in the first quarter of 2016.

In the third quarter 2016, net cash flow from operating activities was negative USD 0.5 million, compared with a negative net cash flow of USD 7.1 million in the third quarter of 2015. The negative cash flow this quarter is caused by the negative EBITDA.

In the comparable quarter last year, the net cash flow was mainly negatively affected by the negative EBITDA.
In the first nine months of 2016, net cash flow from operating activities was negative USD 2.7 million, compared with a positive USD 39.5 million in the same period last year. The positive cash flow last year was mainly caused by a decrease in trade receivables of USD 50.2 million.
EMGS applied USD 4.9 million in investing activities in the third quarter this year, compared with USD 10.1 million in the third quarter of last year. The Company invested USD 1.4 million in equipment, USD 1.8 million in the multi-client library, and USD 1.7 million in a test survey for the JIP equipment.

Total borrowings were USD 34.2 million at 30 September this year, up from USD 32.4 million at 30 June 2016 and down from USD 46.1 million at 30 June last year. This includes the Company's NOK 270 million bond loan, which has a carrying value of USD 33.1 million at 30 September 2016 and USD 31.7 million at 30 June.

| Atlantic Guardian | 52% | In operation | 30 September 2021 | 5 x 12 months |
The BOA Thalassa has been laid up at a reduced rate since 1 May 2016.
The Atlantic Guardian mobilised for the Joint Industry Project (JIP) on 27 June and completed the Fjord test of the JIP equipment on 9 July. Following the Fjord test, EMGS performed funded test surveys for the JIP partners till month end. The Atlantic Guardian acquired multi-client data in the Hammerfest Basin from 2 August to 18 August, and the vessel commenced a multi-client project in the Barents Sea 17 September, which was completed early October. The vessel's utilisation for the third quarter was 52%.
As of 30 September 2016, EMGS' backlog was at approximately USD 5 million, compared with a backlog of USD 9 million at the end of the third quarter in 2015. The backlog as of 30 September 2016 is mainly related to the Pemex contract. Pemex and EMGS have currently not agreed on when EMGS will start working under the contract again.
After the end of the quarter, the Company has announced a provisional agreement worth approximately USD 8 million.
Late August, EMGS announced that the Company had signed a data licensing agreement with a repeat customer for 3D EM data to be acquired over the Hoop area in the Barents Sea. The pre-funding amounts to USD 1 million. The acquisition is expected to take place in the fourth quarter of 2016 and will become part of EMGS' multi-client library.
On 14 September, EMGS announced that the Company had entered into a data licensing agreement for the provision of 3D electromagnetic data from the multi-client library in the Barents Sea worth USD 2.1 million. The revenues were recognised in the third quarter 2016.
On 6 October, the Company announced uplift revenues of USD 2 million from the Barents Sea multi-client library that were recognised in the third quarter 2016.
EMGS has initiated a reduction in the Company's cost base in line with a reduced level of activity. The Company will seek a global reduction in employee expenses by 20% by using both temporary and permanent layoffs amongst other measures. The cost reduction measure will yield effects gradually as temporary headcount reductions onshore and offshore are scheduled to follow a different timeline. The Company will seek to bring temporary laid off employees back as and when the outlook improves.
The Company and North Sea Shipping agreed on new terms for the charter agreement for the Atlantic Guardian. The Company signed an extended charter agreement for the vessel Atlantic Guardian with North Sea Shipping AS (owner of the vessel) at new and improved commercial terms. The new terms are valid as of 1 October 2016. The Company and the owners have agreed to a reduction of the charter hire rates by approximately 27% and agreed to a new 5-year term for the charter.
The Company announced that a customer and the Company reached a provisional agreement worth approximately USD 8 million. EMGS plans to send a stock exchange notice when the agreement is formalised. This is expected to take place early November.
EMGS was listed at the Oslo Stock Exchange in March 2007. On 1 July, the Company's shares were consolidated so that 40 shares, each having a par value of NOK 0.25, were consolidated into one share having a par value of NOK 10.00. During the third quarter 2016, the EMGS share was traded between NOK 3.42 and NOK 6.80 per share. The last closing price before 30 September 2016 was NOK 3.95.
As of 30 September 2016, the Company had a total of 32,794,139 shares outstanding.
EMGS is subject to a number of risk factors, of which the most important isthe demand for EM services. The low oil price has resulted in a substantial decline in E&P spending, and a corresponding sharp deterioration of the market for geophysical services, including EMGS' services.
During 2015 and 2016, EMGS Board and management have implemented comprehensive cost reduction measures, including changes to the organisation to reduce the Company's cost base. This has reduced the operational cost base from USD 170 million in 2014 to approximately USD 65 million for 2016. The recently announced measures will reduce the cost base further.
EMGS management follows the Company's liquidity risk closely, including weekly updates of the Company's sales forecast and vessel schedule, and a corresponding update of the cost and free cash forecast.
Based on the Company's low backlog and the current market situation, there is material uncertainty related to the expected level of revenues going forward. Despite the provisional award in Asia the market continues to be weak during the fourth quarter of 2016. This puts pressure on the Company's cash position and consequently the bond covenant which requires free cash of USD 10 million.
The Company is dependent upon securing sufficient backlog. Should sufficient additional backlog not be forthcoming within the next three to six months, the Company may have to consider raising new financing through new capital or debt, sale of assets, a restructuring of existing debt or a combination.
In the event that the Company does not secure sufficient backlog and solve the resulting liquidity issues that may arise in the coming three to six months, the going concern basis may no longer be valid.
The ever changing exogenous factors in the industry will impact the business and risk factors going forward and they represent added uncertainties. In addition, there are risks associated with EM marine operations which might affect the profitability of projects. Examples include: changes in governmental regulations affecting EMGS' markets, technical downtime, adverse weather conditions, licensing and permitting, as well as delays in closing revenue-generating contracts. Reference is made to the Annual Report of 2015 for a further description of otherrelevant risk factors.
The market outlook for oil services is challenging and characterised by high uncertainty. Oil companies have continued to announce further cost reductions in their spending for 2016 compared to 2015 as a response to the sharp decline in the oil price. We expect 2017 to be challenging too, but with the combination of a slight increase in commercial and tendering activity and a reduced cost base, we are better positioned than we were one year ago.
The Company expects that the 24th licensing round will trigger some sales in 2017 and possibly 2016. Otherwise, marketing efforts are ongoing to secure backlog in Asia and the Americas.
Based on the current operational forecast, EMGS expects to operate two vessels in 2016 and into 2017. The Company expects to keep one vessel in Asia throughout 2016, while the other vessel is expected to operate in Europe. EMGS will continue to invest in its multi-client library in selected areas. Capital investments are limited to maintenance of existing equipment and to the joint-industry-project (JIP).

These interim consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements as of 31 December 2015, which is available on www.emgs.com.
As from 1 January 2016, the following amendments to the accounting standards have become effective:
The amendments to these standards clarify that the use of revenue-based methods to calculate the depreciation of an asset is not appropriate as it is an inappropriate basis for measuring the consumption of the economic benefits embodied in an intangible asset.
The Group has implemented the following changes to amortisation of the multi-client library from 1 January 2016:
o During the acquisition and processing phase, amortisation continues to be based on total cost versus forecasted total revenues of the project.
o After a project is completed, a straight-line amortisation is applied. The straight-line amortisation is assigned over a remaining useful life, which for most projects is expected to be four years. The straight-line amortisation is being distributed evenly through the financial year independently of sales during the quarters.
The amendments have prospective effects; the comparative financial figures have not been changed.
Except for the amendments described above, the Group has applied the same accounting policies as in the Group's Annual Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2015.
EMGS reports its sales revenue as one reportable segment. The sales revenues and related costs are incurred worldwide.
