“We delivered sequential revenue improvement, partly due to starting the second, significantly larger phase of our Mid North Sea High 3D multi-client program in the second quarter. Our strategic decision to participate in the 3D new acquisition multi-client market exposes us to larger scale earnings potential and enables ION to capture existing market share without an improvement in industry conditions. Our team is actively cultivating additional 3D program opportunities, including several with potential to start this year. A key 3D ingredient, our proprietary Gemini™ source technology continues to perform extraordinarily well and was recently highlighted by Shell for its role in enhancing exploration insights in an eco-friendlier manner. We continue to benefit commercially from the global 2D data collaboration with PGS, which helps diversify both companies’ geographic exposure to opportunities globally while also increasing sales efficiency.
“Operations Optimization revenues improved during the second quarter, consistent with increasing global offshore activity. We continue to advance our diversification strategy into ports and offshore logistics. Notably, the Marlin™ SmartPort deployments across nearly 20 UK ports continue to receive positive client feedback on the value our software delivers, such as enhancing decision-making via simple, visual dashboards. Based on the local success in the UK, our business development team recently expanded outreach in North America, Latin America and Africa. The climate-smart digital infrastructure we are promoting with US Department of Commerce support is garnering significant interest for country-scale digitalization solutions spanning maritime detection, port management and illegal fishing. WellAlert™ conversations have also advanced beyond our initial target market, receiving positive feedback in a number of regulatory environments and, as a result, we started developing a full-scale prototype.
“We expect the seismic market will continue gradually improving yet remain challenging in the near-term. As such, in the third quarter we are implementing a significant cost reduction program targeting
"In today’s rapidly evolving landscape, we are focused on empowering clients to operate more efficiently and sustainably. Our offshore data and digitalization technologies are key ingredients for enabling the sustainable use of marine resources, combating climate change and optimizing energy development while supporting the transition to renewable sources. We have doubled down on our diversification efforts and expect momentum to continue building as the year unfolds.”

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Loss (Non-GAAP Measure)
(In thousands)
(Unaudited)
The term EBITDA (excluding non-recurring items) represents net loss before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and other non-recurring charges such as impairment charges, severance expenses, government relief and loss on restructuring transactions. The term Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA (excluding non-recurring items) but also excludes the impact of fair value adjustments related to the Company’s outstanding stock appreciation awards. EBITDA (excluding non-recurring items) and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income (loss) or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. Additionally, EBITDA (excluding non-recurring items) and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The Company has included EBITDA (excluding non-recurring items) and Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because its management believes that EBITDA (excluding non-recurring items) and Adjusted EBITDA provides investors a helpful measure for comparing its operating performance with the performance of other companies that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates.

Description of Special Items and Reconciliation of GAAP (As Reported) to Non-GAAP (As Adjusted) Measures
(In thousands, except per share data)
(Unaudited)
The financial results are reported in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes that certain non-GAAP performance measures may provide users of this financial information, additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. One such non-GAAP financial measure is adjusted income (loss) from operations or adjusted net income (loss), which excludes certain charges or amounts. This adjusted income (loss) amount is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Accordingly, it should not be considered as a substitute for income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) or other income data prepared in accordance with GAAP. See the tables below for supplemental financial data and the corresponding reconciliation to GAAP financials for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and three months ended March 31, 2021:
